In this episode of Her Next Act, host Joan Paul closes out Season One with gratitude, reflection, and a deep sense of fulfillment. Sitting on Amelia Island, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean the same place she launched this podcast one year ago Joan celebrates the full-circle moment of completing 27 episodes and a year-long commitment to sharing stories of courage, reinvention, and possibility.
Joan reflects on how Her Next Act began with a simple idea that wouldn’t let her go, a spark that grew into a platform for women in their 50s, 60s, and beyond to share how they’ve redefined what’s possible in this next phase of life. She opens up about the fears and doubts that surfaced early on, and how staying consistent became an act of self-trust and personal integrity. Through every interview, she discovered not just her guests’ transformations but her own.
Revisiting several guests, Joan shares inspiring updates from Dr. Alicia Farrell’s new parenting platform to Sue Skelly’s upcoming “Women Who Walk the World” podcast, and Cynthia Coddington’s culinary adventures in Italy. These stories reveal a powerful truth: courage grows with practice, creativity flourishes in connection, and transformation rarely happens overnight, but it always begins with one small, brave step.
As she reflects on what she’s learned from this journey, Joan invites listeners to pause and ask themselves what’s calling them next. Whether it’s a long-held dream, a creative pursuit, or a new direction in life, she reminds us that it’s never too late to begin again.
