She Shift: Midlife Reinvention for Women

What does it take to turn an idea into a movement? This week on Table Talk Tuesday, Pamela Stone sits down with Regina Rembert, founder of Think Veterans First, a Columbus, Ohio nonprofit leading a nationwide movement to champion the economic power of veteran-owned businesses.

Regina is a 22-year Army Reserve veteran and a proud Buckeye. She started Think Veterans First in 2020, during the pandemic, becaus...

Hi Midlife Friend,

You're sitting at the table. The house is quiet. And in front of you is a blank page, because you don't know your what's next yet.

In this week's Dear What's Next letter, I'm talking about the two feelings that showed up when I looked at my own blank page: scared and excited. Both at the same time. And why you don't have to pick one.

In this letter:

Welcome to She Shift, where midlife women welcome to rediscover themselves, reignite their passions, and rise boldly into what’s next.

I’m your host, Pamela Stone, your midlife reinventor.

As we move through midlife, many of us find ourselves asking, “What’s next?” For Victoria of Gather & Hook, the answer came through an unexpected source: picking up the crochet hook she learned to use as a child, and creating a space for women to rediscover themselves through creativity and connection.

In the latest episode of the She Shift podcast, Victoria shared her journey of pivoting careers, her belief i...

Table Talk Tuesday is back. And it's back with a room full of women who decided cancer would not get the final word. In this episode, I sit down with the leadership and models of At The Table, a Columbus, Ohio nonprofit that supports, educates, and empowers women cancer survivors — with a specific focus on African American women. We talk about their annual signature benefit, the Still I Rise Survivor Fashion Show, celebrating...

Hi Midlife Friend,

Dear What’s Next,

Nobody warned you about this silence.

Not the peaceful quiet you daydreamed about in the middle of the chaos. The quiet that comes after the last car pulls out of the driveway. After the last box is loaded. After the door closes and you’re standing in a house that is suddenly, impossibly still.

The house is qu...

As women navigating the exciting (and sometimes daunting) "what's next," we often find fear shouting at us loud, unrelenting, immediate. But, as Pamela Stone reminds us, while fear is temporary, regret settles in, quiet and enduring, growing heavier each year we wait.

It’s easy to let fear—of being “too old,” of failure, of others' opinions—hold you back from reinventing your life and pursuing your true passions.
