Rusty But Not Dead is the brutally honest, hilariously real podcast for women who left their careers to raise kids and are now trying to claw their way back into the workforce. Hosted by Gina whalen, a 58-year-old former Recreational Therapist who thought taking "a few years off" would be temporary, this show tackles the motherhood penalty, resume gaps, ageism, soul-crushing job applications, and the identity crisis that comes with being invisible for a decade—all with humor, heart, and zero BS. If you've ever sat across from a 28-year-old hiring manager trying to explain what you did from 2008 to 2023, or wondered if you're unemployable because you chose family over career, this podcast is for you. We're not dead. We're just rusty. And we're coming back swinging.
