Meaning and Moxie After 50

Over 50 and Still Playing Small? This Conversation Might Change That (#3 Top Ten from 2025)

Leslie Maloney

This interview with Christina Woods goes straight at one of the most dangerous ideas women over 50 are taught to accept: that wanting more means you’re ungrateful or unrealistic. Christina doesn’t talk about “starting over” or chasing some glossy reinvention. Instead, she names the quiet erosion that happens when we stop questioning the rules we inherited about aging, success, and staying safe. Together, we unpack how comfort, people-pleasing, and fear of judgment slowly shrink our world — often without us even realizing it.

What makes this conversation powerful is its mix of honesty and hope. Christina offers a grounded, compassionate challenge to anyone who feels restless but stuck, capable but hesitant. This isn’t about blowing up your life — it’s about reclaiming your authority, trusting your inner voice, and choosing growth even when it feels uncomfortable. If you’ve been sensing there’s more ahead of you — and wondering whether you’re allowed to reach for it — this interview gives you both the permission and the courage to begin.
