Your Creative Midlife
Your Creative Midlife. With host Betsy Bush.
I’m talking to people who are exploring the creative life post-career or as empty nesters: painting, writing, making music, theater, and film making. What about you? Is this the time to write that book? Return to arts you enjoyed as a kid or teen? Curious to try something new?
Here’s the thing: It’s never too late to bring a creative practice into your life. My guests talk about the satisfaction they find as they develop their new skills. They also share the uncertainty and fear they felt when they started and the confidence they gained as they kept at it and their skills developed. Even better: their definition of success is their own. Where do you want to go? Dare to follow your muse.

Did a Family Ghost Lure Me to Nantucket? A Special Episode with Betsy Bush
For the last Nantucket edition of the year, I’m sharing a personal story that kind of fits with the spooky season of Halloween. It’s the story of my first visit to Nantucket, only five years ago during COVID, when the island was shut down. During those months when the town was almost deserted, it was very easy to imagine Nantucket as the setting for ghost stories told at night on the beach around a campfire.
Nantucket exerts a pull for many of us that we can’t really explain. Of course, it’s beautiful and charming in the summer, but some of us wonder if there isn’t something else going on. Please enjoy my tale of Nantucket discovery.
