Ever thought about switching things up in midlife—but stopped yourself because you didn’t know where to start or you were afraid to make a mistake?

In this episode, Cheryl sits down with leadership coach Limor Bergman Gross for a practical and inspiring conversation about creating multiple streams of income, building something new alongside your current job, and breaking through the common fears that hold us back. If you’ve been feeling stuck, burned out, or ready for a fresh challenge, this conversation will help you reframe what’s possible—and how to get started.

🎧 Whether you’re curious about a second act, dreaming about more freedom, or just tired of doing the same thing, this episode is for you.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

✔ Why starting something while working your current job is often the smartest move
✔ What’s really behind the hesitation and procrastination—and how to work through it
✔ How to identify what lights you up and turn it into a potential income stream
✔ Why being a beginner isn’t a weakness—it’s actually the key to reinvention

🎯 OMG Moment: There are so many opportunities—you just have to be open to seeing them.
