In this conversation, Nicole and I get into what reinvention really looks like in midlife, from shifting careers, finding a new purpose,  to redefining relationships. After a hailstorm of headlines, Nicole opens up about the importance of female friendships, inspiration from cultural identity, and the art of saying no when it no longer feels right, a privilege that often comes with age.

We also discuss how the connection between wellness, beauty, and emotional resilience is more relevant than ever. From fashion to scent, female friendships to menopause, this episode goes deep and wide.
