An entire growth strategy politely ignored

Apparently, there is a very specific window in which a woman is considered economically useful. Miss it by a decade or two, and things get awkward. At 60+, you are simultaneously: too young to retire (financially reckless, we’re told), too old to hire (a “risk”, delivered with remarkable confidence), and this is my personal favourite, too late to be taken seriously as a founder.

I am always astonished (but really should not be after all these years) of depth, breadth and unique stance Wendy brings to the master classes. There is always room for thought, the chance to offer opinion and to clarify understanding.

The last one, "Reimagining the Rules", was a perfect example.

I have taken the 30 day challenge and am getting huge positive response on my posts that are aimed to redefine what age 74 looks like.

THANK YOU!

You’re living, breathing proof that 60 is not a full stop – it’s a bold, fabulous exclamation mark kicking off the next chapter! Your energy, wisdom, and sheer determination to lift others as you rise is truly inspiring.

I'm so proud to see you championing women and showing that ambition doesn’t have an age limit. The Refirement CIC story is powerful, and I’ve no doubt you lit up that stage brighter than a Black Country bonfire night 🔥

Keep stepping into that light – and pulling the rest of us in with you
