Show Notes
TV presenter and former supermodel Lisa Snowdon opens up about navigating midlife with absolute confidence, joy, and zero regrets.
From her whirlwind 90s modelling career, including the dark side of Paris and standing up to industry predators, to high-profile romances with Hollywood royalty like George Clooney, Lisa lays it all bare. She reflects on why her 50s are her most empowering decade yet, how she made peace with not having children, and why ending a 12-year relationship at 54 was the ultimate act of self-love.
Second Act is the podcast and community for women in midlife who refuse to fade into the background. Join host, midlifer, mum-of-two and divorcee Ateh Jewel as she navigates her own second act by speaking to celebrity guests about what age means to them, and how they're approaching this new phase of life.
If you've got a question or dilemma you'd like Ateh, her celebrity guests and experts to answer, drop her a line at [email protected] and make sure to tune in to hear the answer.
