When it comes to love, if you’re a women over 40 then chances are this is “not your first rodeo” as Susie is fond of saying. You may be single again or you may have never found one worth keeping in the first place. Regardless, you’re out there dating and it’s completely different than when you were “ah-hem” younger. Our girlfriend the Dating Goddess can help.
Today on Girlfriend We Gotta Talk radio show we replayed our oh-so-hopeful and fun conversation with the Dating Goddess, a midlife woman who, after her husband of 20 years surprised her with a divorce announcement at age 48, turned her search for her next mate into an adventure. She chronicles her lessons, insights, stories and advice in her popular blog called Adventures in Delicious Dating After 40.
“It was the best of times; it was the worst of times.” If you’ve been laid off and can’t find a job, today’s economy may feel like the worst of times. According to Ali Brown, it may be the best time to become an entrepreneur. In 1998 Ali made the decision to start her life over. She quit her New York ad agency job and decided to go out on her own – and almost failed. But something made her not give up, something that has made all the difference.
As we continue to celebrate our 3rd anniversary with some of your favorite Girlfriend We Gotta Talk radio shows, one of our most inspiring business success shows was our conversation with Ali Brown who shared her personal journey of ups and downs that led her to create an unstinting faith in her own ability and destiny to become one of the more successful female entrepreneurs of her generation.
Ali Brown is fast becoming regarded as the voice for women's entrepreneurial success. As founder and CEO of Ali International LLC, she has created a dynamic enterprise that is devoted to empowering women entrepreneurs around the world and currently has over 50,000 members in her online and offline programs.
Over the past two years alone, Ali has received the honor of being ranked on the Inc. 500 list of fastest growing companies in the nation and named one of Ernst & Young's Winning Women Entrepreneurs, one of the Enterprising Women of the Year, and one of Forbes' Women to Watch. She was also featured in the season finale of ABC's Secret Millionaire, during which she lived in poverty, volunteered in some hard situations, and then gave away $100,000 of her own money to some of her community's most deserving organizations.

You gotta listen to what this amazing girlfriend has to share!
We're celebrating our Girlfriend We Gotta Talk 3rd Anniversary by sharing again some of your favorite shows - and ours - to increase your sanity, confidence and fun.
So many of our girlfriend listeners are career gals and because of the economy, too many of them have suddenly found themselves looking for a new job. Unfortunately, getting older can be a career killer.
That’s why you loved our show with Lisa Johnson Mandell, author of Career Comeback – Repackage Yourself to Get the Job Your Want. As an entertainment journalist, Lisa discovered when looking for a new job the her resume made her sound like an aged veteran.
So she revamped her “older” image to land her dream job, acknowledging that experience matters, but looking and acting up-to-date and staying technologically current are just as important.
Listen in to find out just how Lisa got hip and hired and you can, too!
June marks Girlfriend We Gotta Talk radio show’s third anniversary! To celebrate we’ve decided to share again some of your favorite shows - and ours - to increase your sanity, confidence and fun.
There’s a lot of music out there, mostly about love that feels so right or love gone waaaay wrong. There are not nearly as many “you can do it” tunes encouraging us to take risks, be brave, and believe in yourself. That’s why we love Jana Stanfield!
With lyrics such as “What would I do this year if I had no fear,” “I’m learning to fly mid-air,” and “I am a hottie, I love my body, I am just the right size,” we can’t help but want to sing along!
We had so much fun talking with Jana about what happened in her life that caused her to write decidedly positive music, and what inspired some of her latest tunes.
Now more than ever, we need music that offers more than just song and dance. We need laughter and inspiration! Thanks, Jana!
