Finding My Voice Again; My Story

Finding My Voice Again; My Story

Welcome to the first official episode of Loving Later Life! Please join me, Nancy Lang Gibbs, Later Life Coach and published writer, as I share Who I am (I tried to keep it from sounding like a combo of my resume and dating profile), What this podcast is all about, Why the heck I’m doing it, When you can tune in on a regular basis, Where you can find it, and How the idea for this podcast was born.

You’ll hear how I’m finding my voice again. I share an overview of my journey including how, after the implosion of an abusive relationship I landed in a seat at Disneyland for a life changing ride, which led to traveling thousands of miles to begin a new life adventure only to be cut short by Covid. I also flashback to some other twists and turns along my path including my divorce, and then losing my home and moving in with my mom in my 50’s. I’m now 62 and it’s not too late for any of us to live our best Later Life! I hope you’ll come with me on this journey!

Not be missed take-ways:

1. Loving Later Life is a safe, fun space for women 50, 60 and older to feel heard, understood, valued, and connected. A place to ask questions, get answers, and be inspired.

2. I’ll be sharing personal stories that will relate to the topic of each episode. I’ll also be talking with experts on topics we all want answers to, and with wonderful women telling their compelling stories.

3. Each episode will have the main story/content, then a recap of the not-to-be missed take-aways, followed by some action steps to take regarding the topic that day…I call it, “your mission should you choose to accept it.”

4. There will be some 4 letter words, bad puns and direct and honest thoughts and opinions!

5. I knew I wasn’t the only woman at this stage of life experiencing some challenges and changes like feeling stuck, ruminating about regrets, worrying that the best of life is in the rear-view mirror, staying healthy, financial concerns, re-imagining life, re-building personal connections, traveling alone, navigating dating, helping aging parents, grown kids telling us what to do!

6. A new episode of Loving Later Life will drop every Monday.

7. Brene Brown defines vulnerability as “uncertainty, risk and emotional exposure.” That is what starting this podcast is for me. I hope you’ll join and support me in growing a community of and for women in later life!

And your mission, that I hope you’ll choose to accept…

Moving forward, this is where  I’ll give some action steps to try regarding the topic that week. This week my action steps are to please do any and all of the below to help me get the word out about Loving Later Life!

Thank you so much for listening! And until the next time, live passionately, vulnerably, and keep loving later life!

Loving Later Life: The Trailer!

Loving Later Life: The Trailer!

Hi! Welcome to Loving Later Life…the trailer, the sneak preview! I’m Nancy Lang Gibbs; a Later Life Coach (in later life), published writer, proud mom, and creator & host of this podcast.

I have found it challenging to find a fun, safe place to connect with other women 50, 60 and older.

So, I decided I had to start Loving Later Life literally, and, the podcast of the same name!

I am now 62 years old and it just doesn’t compute. But when I see the sagging of almost everything, hear moans more often from changing positions than from pleasure, and realize that I’ve become “Ma’am” instead of “Miss” in the eyes of many, it is a big bite of reality.

While I’m very grateful to be this age, I figured I couldn’t possibly be the only woman at this stage of life experiencing some challenges and changes like:

• Discovering a new purpose
• Loneliness
• Losing Friends
• Making new friends
• Dating
• Hormones
• Staying healthy
• Embracing aging
• Financial stuff
• Creating boundaries
• Regrets
• Worrying that the best of life is over
• Traveling alone
• Relationships changing
• Ignoring that negative inner voice
• …And soooo much more!

Loving Later Life is where women 50, 60+ can connect, feel seen, heard, and valued. A place to laugh, have fun, and feel inspired. I’ll be sharing my experiences, talking with experts, and brave women telling their compelling stories.

It’s an opportunity to share, ask questions, and get answers that are informing, and I hope, transforming.

Meet me here every Monday! And to be sure you get each new episode automatically, go now to Apple or wherever you get your podcasts and follow Loving Later Life. Please also share this with other women you know and care about so that our supportive, fun, non-judgmental, community of women can grow and thrive.

And I’d love to hear from you! What would you like me to discuss? Or talk about with others? I also want to hear your stories. I invite you to email me: nancy@lovinglaterlife.com, or DM me on Instagram @lovinglaterlifepodcast. The more we share, the more we’ll all feel seen, heard, and connected.

Thank you so much for listening! And until the next time, live passionately, vulnerably, and keep loving later life!
