Your 2nd Act

Enough of this BS – let me step fully into my power, with Megan Dalla-Camina!

Michelle Parsonage Season 3 Episode 7

Have you ever felt like midlife is less of a crisis and more of a calling? In this episode, I sit down with Megan Dalla-Camina, an award-winning women’s leadership and empowerment expert and bestselling author of Women Rising, to talk about navigating this transformative stage of life. We explore empowerment, dealing with our inner critic, and how patriarchy has shaped the way we see ourselves and our potential.

Megan breaks down the idea of archetypes that represent the voices of our inner critics, showing how understanding these can help us move forward with more self-awareness. We talk about the importance of having each other’s backs, the shared struggles so many women face, and why it’s time to let go of all those societal expectations holding us back.

We dive into the realities of workplace equality, or the lack of it, and why we need to come together to push for real change, not just for us but for the women coming after us. Megan also shines a light on how women over 40 have historically been sidelined, but also how more and more midlife women are stepping into their power and rewriting the narrative. She reminds us that it’s never too late to try something new, whether that’s a career change or chasing a dream you’ve put off.

By the end of our conversation, I felt truly inspired by Megan’s message: midlife isn’t the beginning of the end, it’s the start of something extraordinary. It’s a time to embrace our power, rewrite the rules, and show the world what we’re capable of. If you’ve ever doubted that the best is yet to come, this episode will leave you feeling ready to take on whatever’s next.
