Curiosity in the Quiet - Identity, Creativity & Letting Go of ‘Not Enough’

In this thoughtful and deeply human episode of Kinwomen ALOUD, Amanda Viviers joins Penny and Kelley to explore how curiosity, leadership, and self-compassion can shape our lives - especially through the intense, beautiful, and complex season of midlife.

Amanda reflects on parenting teens, navigating perimenopause, balancing remote leadership, and rediscovering personal creativity. With honesty and humour, she talks about listening more deeply - to herself, her children, and her calling - and why asking the right questions matters more than always having answers.

Whether you’re juggling work and family, navigating identity shifts, or trying to live with more intention, this episode is a permission slip to slow down, tune in, and stay curious.
