I’m your host, Monica Wisdom, and this episode is part of our powerful series, The Soft Life Is Political. It’s a conversation about what it means to live differently, intentionally, and on your terms—especially when the world has asked so much of us.

Today, we’re honoring something that doesn’t get enough shine: your age, not as a burden, not as a clock ticking down, but as one of your greatest assets. Sis, you’ve held it all. The career. The caregiving. The community. You’ve been the glue, the guide, the quiet force behind so much. And now? It’s your time. Not just to rest—but to reclaim. This episode is about recognizing the wisdom you’ve earned and using it to shape what’s next.

I’ll share how the stillness of the pandemic helped me hear myself again, really hear, and how saying yes to my voice changed the direction of everything. We’ve been taught that visibility has a deadline. That after a certain age, we’re supposed to shrink, stay quiet, fade out. But that’s a lie.

You are not running out of time—you’re standing at the start of something beautiful. There’s no limit on your brilliance.
No expiration on your gifts.
No ceiling on what you can create from here.

Let this be your reminder:

✔︎ Your age is not a limitation—it’s a launchpad
✔︎ Wisdom is the foundation of your next chapter
✔︎ Visibility is a choice—and you still get to choose you
✔︎ I’ll guide you through a reflection to reconnect with your power and possibility
