Welcome to another episode of the Women in the Middle podcast!
Today we’re taking a look at what it’s like to use your past experience to do something new like start a digital magazine for midlife women.
My guest today is Jeannie Ralston of NextTribe Digital Magazine. Like most midlife women who make a big career pivot, Jeannie’s path to entrepreneurship was an interesting one. It even included some serious life on a lavender farm.
Jeannie was a magazine journalist for much of her professional life. She noticed there was a big gaping hole when it came to a positive messaging for midlife women. That’s why she wanted to launch NextTribe; she knew she could make a contribution to this space..
As Editor and CoFounder of NextTribe, Jeannie feels strongly about supporting and celebrating women who are aging boldly.
Lots of women in midlife are looking for a career change and want to take on more adventures in both their personal and professional lives. Your past career can be used as a highly valuable experience base and can be really useful.
I know you’re going to love hearing more about how you can continue to grow and do interesting things in your career if you work on your mindset about making a big change and look for opportunity out there like Jeannie did. I can’t wait for you to meet this very special and accomplished woman in the middle.
