Less Than Fifty

he lived like his own shadow was the only place worth standing

a consultant-rockstar nine-to-five

a Self of twilight, smoke, and broken mirrors

head, heart and guts
warfare on three fronts

life left is
less than
fifty percent
now

Grief, Identity & Starting Over for Women over 40
If you’re a woman over 40 navigating loss, big life transitions, or a shifting identity, this episode will help you feel seen and provide you with practical tools you can use today—not someday. In this episode, host Lisa Urbanski sits down with transformational coach Carole Hodges, along with Maryann Udell and Diana Camba, to explore grief in all its forms—death, divorce, job loss, relocation, and identity shifts—and how women over 40 can find themselves again.  This is a calm, practical conversation about feeling less alone and taking simple steps to move through grief instead of getting stuck in it. You’ll learn how to: 💬 Name invisible grief (like job loss, moves, or identity changes), so it stops confusing you 📝 Use journaling and grounding tools to calm your body when emotions spike 🧠 Understand grief in your nervous system and why “stuffing it down” backfires 👭 Lean on community and support without feeling weak or like a burden 🎯 Know when to reach out for a grief coach so you don’t stay stuck in “who am I now?”
