Dahlia is joined by Rosie Nixon to discuss what it means to choose a moment of reinvention. Rosie shares her story from Editor in Chief of Hello Magazine to an author, broadcaster and coach, detailing the defining moments that have shaped where she is in her career (and her life) now.
Dahlia and Rosie discuss the fact that change is inevitable but sometimes we need to make a choice to take control of that change, aware that actually there is greater fear of sitting in the same space for a prolonged period of time rather than choosing to grow and evolve.
Rosie gives an honest account of what made her choose to make a change in her life, the impact of burnout and the work she did to reset, reinvent and how she is paying that forwards.
The conversation also includes an in depth exploration of how Rosie has used clothes for confidence and self expression, what it means to take time out for a retreat and why it is vital to spread your 'status' in life.
Rosie Nixon is an author, broadcaster and coach. She is the author of three novels, TheStylist, Amber Green Takes Manhattan, Just Between Friends, plus the Be Kind book, which was recently republished in paperback (all Harper Collins). Her new novel Bad Influence will be published on 14 August. Bad Influence tackles issues around image in the online world and how vulnerability could be a super power, as Rosie’s protagonist, stylist Amber Green works with one of her trickiest celebrity clients yet.
After a long career in women’s magazines, latterly as the award-winning Editor and Editor in Chief of HELLO! magazine, where she worked for 16 years, Rosie super-charged her career for the next chapter and is a qualified life coach, speaker and experienced podcast host. In 2024 she launched Rosie’s Reinvention Retreats - a series of day retreats for midlife women, to support navigating changes in career, business and wellbeing.
Rosie enjoys working with brands including Marks & Spencer and Microsoft UK, as part of her portfolio career. Most recently, Rosie has taken on the role of Editor of The Column, Corinthia London's new bi-annual luxury magazine focused on lifestyle, cuisine, style and travel.
Rosie previously held senior positions at women's glossies including Grazia, Glamour and Red. She is a proud ambassador for the women’s health charity Wellbeing ofWomen, Wellchild and anti-FGM charity, Educate Not Mutilate.
Rosie is a keen believer in the power of kindness and a master of reinvention. Havingcome close to burnout in 2022, she is on a path of personal growth and loves peaking on this subject. Ultimately, she thrives in communities with a common goal to inspire and spread joy.
Rosie lives with her family in Surrey, is passionate about keeping her mind and body fit and healthy and in any spare time can be found getting out into nature or running around after her two lively sons.
Rosie's next Reinvention Retreat is happening in Manchester on Monday 13th October - see the link in herbio @rosiejnixon for tickets
