13. Jane Moffett - "Redefining Retirement: On Your Terms"

Season 1 · Episode 13

Thursday, April 2, 2026 • Duration 38:15

In this episode, Sue talks with coach and author Jane Moffett about her book What Next? The Savvy Woman’s Guide to Redefining Retirement, exploring how professional women can design life beyond traditional work on their own terms—blending purpose, identity, money realities, and joy.

They discuss why the word “retirement” feels so wrong for many women today, what Jane’s research with women in their 50s–70s reveals about timing and choice, and how real-life stories can help you see what’s possible for your own “what next.”

If you’re anywhere between “I’m never retiring” and “I have no idea what comes after this job,” this conversation will help you replace anxiety with curiosity, courage, and practical inspiration.

Key topics:

Redefining retirement for women over 50
The six-step process for designing your future
The importance of identity, purpose, and connection
Challenging traditional retirement stereotypes
The role of mindset and community in transition
Intergenerational relationships

Sue's guest in this episode is Jane Moffett, author and coach.

Explore how to transform your birthday into a meaningful, joyful milestone with Tamar Hurwitz‑Fleming, author of How to Have a Happy Birthday.

10. Lucy Owens - "Matching Your Style with the Woman You’re Becoming"

Season 1 · Episode 10

Thursday, February 19, 2026 • Duration 41:47

As life shifts in midlife—through career changes, new chapters, changing bodies or the end of long relationships—it’s easy to find that your clothes no longer feel like you. In this episode of Flourish After 50, Sue West talks with personal stylist and Style Rises founder, Lucy Owens, about what it means to dress for the woman you’re becoming, not the one you used to be.

Lucy shares her own journey from corporate leadership in Melbourne to running a global styling business from Spain, and how style became a tool for confidence, presence and self‑expression rather than just “looking put together.” Together, she and Sue explore simple, compassionate ways to realign your style with who you are now—starting with a few words that describe how you want to show up and one small visible change that shifts how you feel in your own skin.

Also covered in this episode:

How midlife transitions (career shifts, relationship changes, menopause) can leave your style out of sync with who you are now.

Why “I have nothing to wear” is often really “I don’t see myself in my clothes anymore.”
Simple starting points to realign your style.
How treating style as self‑expression and self‑respect can boost confidence, presence, and a sense of being truly seen after 50.

About Lucy Owens:

Lucy is a leading Personal Stylist and Image Consultant. With a background in senior corporate roles, including luxury fashion and hospitality brands, Lucy intimately understands the challenges women face when it comes to dressing with both authenticity and authority. Through her proven framework, she helps clients develop a signature style that aligns with their personal brand, boosts their confidence, and supports their leadership presence, so they not only look like leaders but feel like leaders.

9. Sarah Hopkins - "Navigating Friendship, Finding Connection"

Thursday, February 5, 2026 • Duration 47:29

In this episode, I have an honest conversation about friendship with my friend Sarah Hopkins. We share the joys and challenges of making new friends in our fifties and sixties and explore how vulnerability, authenticity, and courage can open the door to deeper connections and lasting joy. We discuss finding new friends, strengthening existing friendships, and letting go when a friendship no longer serves us. It is a heartfelt reminder that meaningful friendships can flourish at any life stage.

In this episode, we also discuss:

The unnecessary shame associated with feeling lonely.
The ‘liking gap’ and how it can get in the way when you meet new people.
Mindsets that support friend-making.
Starting small can lead to significant social connections.
Trusting your instincts helps in finding the right friends.
Investing time and effort is crucial for nurturing friendships.
