Welcome to The Boomer Woman's Podcast
That Was Then, This Is Now: Design Your Own Next Chapter
Welcome to The Boomer Woman’s Podcast, where we embrace the journey—and the reinvention—of life after “then.”
Now in its 7th season, this podcast is a series of thoughtful, honest conversations between me, Agnes Knowles, and guests who bring insight, experience, and perspective to the questions Boomer women are asking right now.
My guests come from all walks of life—any age, any gender—but they share one thing in common: their stories, work, or ideas speak meaningfully to Boomer women (and often to our daughters and granddaughters, too). Topics range from retirement and reinvention to health, creativity, relationships, money, purpose, adventure, and everything in between.
Many of us spent decades meeting expectations—societal, familial, practical—often putting our own dreams on the back burner. This chapter is different.
This is our time.
This page is the home of the podcast, where you can explore the current season’s guests or revisit conversations from previous years. You’ll also find links to listen on all major podcast platforms.
If an episode resonates, I hope you’ll share it—because the best conversations deserve to travel.
