What if reinvention in midlife isn’t a total life overhaul but a choice to change your mind and bet on yourself?

In this candid conversation, Laurie Gerber, dating coach, shares how being fired, reworking a marriage, and reframing menopause led her to reinvent life — and dating after 50 — with unapologetic positivity.

Expect practical mindset shifts, a no-nonsense approach to dating, and concrete next steps to move from fear to action.

What we cover:

  • Laurie's turning points: getting fired, marriage pivot, and choosing reinvention
  • Why past ≠ future: the mindset shift every dater needs
  • How to curate what you consume (media, conversations, negativity)
  • Menopause: ditching the rabbit hole of doom and reclaiming agency
  • Practical moves: hire a coach, name the dream, make a plan, be accountable

Key takeaways:

  • You don’t have to believe everything you think. Change the thought; change the outcome.
  • Reinvention can be forced — and liberating. Sudden endings often open new doors.
  • Curate your inputs. Unsubscribe from narratives that don’t serve your midlife story.
  • Plan + accountability = action. Say the dream, make a plan, get help, and do the work.
