The Second Act: Navigating Change, Purpose, and Possibility After 40
Welcome - I’m Kristy, and this is The Second Act.
After two decades in sales leadership and business development, I found myself asking bigger questions - about purpose, identity, and what happens when life doesn’t unfold the way we imagined. Between career milestones, caregiving, and the rollercoaster of menopause, I realised something important: midlife isn’t a pause. It’s a transformation.
This space is for women who want to talk honestly about that transformation - the challenges, the humour, and the hope that comes with starting again while carrying everything you’ve learned so far. Here, we’re rewriting the narrative about what 40+ really looks like - with strength, empathy, and unapologetic truth.
This is your second act. And it’s just getting good.
