What happens when the life and identity you’ve known for decades suddenly begin to change?
At 47, Carlene Marie found herself facing the end of a 25-year marriage, an empty nest, a return to the traditional workforce, and one enormous question: Who am I now?
But Carlene was no stranger to starting again. After losing her father suddenly at 18, facing cancer at 34 while raising young children, and navigating other seasons of loss and uncertainty, she had already learned that reinvention rarely happens in one big, courageous leap. More often, it happens one small choice at a time.
Maybe your age isn’t evidence that it’s too late. Maybe it’s evidence that you’re finally ready.
In this episode of Age Slayers, Carlene and Traci talk about self-doubt, identity, nervous system regulation, and that uncomfortable “in-between” season when the woman you used to be no longer fits, but you aren’t quite sure who you’re becoming yet.
Carlene also shares the four steps of her Compass Method® Connect, Calm, Curious, and Claim and why trying to force yourself to “think positive” isn’t always the answer when fear and self-doubt take over.
Today, Carlene is an author, keynote speaker, Master Mindpower Coach, happily remarried, and the author of the upcoming book Enough Already: Release Self-Doubt, Reclaim Your Worth, Remember Your Light.
