It’s Not Too Late to Find Your Passion
Cathi Colas Did at Age 53
My special guest in this episode of Loving Later Life is Cathi Colas.
Costco magazine did a cover story on 2nd chapters of life. It was about people, as they said, had one thing in common: a mindset open to opportunity.
Cathi was one of those people featured. So, because I’m a lifelong proponent of the “it never hurts to ask” club, I looked her up and reached out to her asking if she’d join us on Loving Later Life!
I am very happy to report that she said yes. Cathi has done many things in her life but it wasn’t until about 8 years ago that she found what lights her up. And then she made it a reality.
Cathi is a professional Audiobook Narrator, Coach, and Voice Actress. She currently has over 60 audiobooks on Audible that include everything from Self-Help to Horror. She also has many notable voiceover credits on TV and video games.
I hope you’ll join our conversation because you will be inspired by her journey to finally finding her passion and purpose in later life. And then we went even deeper about what keeps us from believing, trying, seeking, and doing anything that may give us joy in this chapter of our lives. Don’t miss this!
Not be missed take-ways:
1. Just jump in. Do it messy. Done is better than perfect.
2. Overthinking = Doing nothing.
3. No one really gives a shit unless you affect them.
4. Trust the process. Keep exploring. Stay open.
5. Be aware of the old stories you tell yourself.
6. Your passions may not be what you expect them to be.
7. Don’t be attached to a specific outcome or you could miss other possibilities.
8. Let go of the need to control. We really don’t have any anyway.
9. Stay present. Trust yourself and your knowing.
10. Life changes in the blink of an eye. Don’t wait. Jump in.
11. Stop saying you can’t. You can do it.

Or hear her podcast of audiobooks she’s narrated episodically at Cathi Colas Audio Books.
And your mission, that I hope you’ll choose to accept…
If you are feeling that you haven’t yet found what lights you up, or you want to find a new thing that does, look at it as a fun adventure (which it can be if you let it) and start exploring, and trying new things. Jump. In.
Thank you so much for listening! And until the next time, live passionately, vulnerably, and keep loving later life!
