51 Creating your next chapter with Angela Raspass

Angela Raspass is my mentor and she works with women to find, create and grow their next chapter in business and life. She's as determined as I am to help women find passion, purpose and fulfilment in midlife and beyond. She also knows just how powerful we can be if we just believe in ourselves! We talk about: • How Angela moved from corporate to setting up a marketing business and finally becoming a business and life mentor • Unpicking her sense of self-worth from running her business • How she learnt that just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should • Your business needs to serve you as much as your customers • How women’s ability to contribute just expands as we age • Self-doubt is the biggest issue for women and we need to dismantle our old stories • Getting stuck in the conditioning and messages society gives us • Learning to listen to our intuition and Angela’s next chapter model of change • Moving through discontent and trying to work out what we want next • What would you rant about on your soap box and who inspires you • The inspiration Angela gets from Brené Brown • Moving towards your desire and taking decisions • Silencing your inner critic and finding belief buddies – don’t go it alone • Acceptance commitment therapy (ACT) – actions first, confidence later • Starting a business isn’t an easy path but can be incredibly rewarding • Moving from face to face contact to online because of Covid • Not being scared of technology or using lack of knowledge as an excuse • No harm in getting help with the stuff that is difficult • Applying self-compassion and being willing to pivot if we don’t get it right • GOSCOP – Get off self, get on purpose – a good way to get back on track • Feel Deal Heal – take time to feel the emotions, deal with them and heal ourselves • Finding ways to fill the empty nest • Building next chapters on skinned knees – learning from life experiences  And lots more!                                  You can find out more about Angela: Your Next Chapter with Angela Raspass Angela’s free Journey Board program Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Linkedin If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, share it and leave a review on iTunes or wherever you’re listening.

Midlife isn’t the end of meaningful life, just the end of the first half rehearsal. Listen, laugh and be inspired as Rachel Lankester, author, mentor and founder of Magnificent Midlife, interviews women in midlife and beyond living authentic, empowered lives, not disappearing into obscurity. From round the world yachtswomen to 60 year old pole dancers, from palliative care doctors to sustainable food evangelists, this podcast explores the myriad things older women get up to and the issues we face. We challenge the status quo and bash those negative stereotypes about being an older woman. Need some inspiration about what’s possible for you when you're over 40, over 50 or beyond? These women will show you anything is. Need help overcoming your own limiting beliefs about getting older or struggles with menopause? Learn from women who’ve experienced the same but found ways to thrive and become who they were always meant to be. Learn their life-hacks and how they do what they do. This podcast is all about celebrating women in midlife and beyond. We’re not over the hill or on a downward slope. We get better with age not worse. We talk all things midlife, about issues that matter, and share fabulous stories of magnificent women doing very cool stuff. Now's our time! Find out more at magnificentmidlife.com.
