What happens when you’ve done everything “right” but still find yourself stressed, exhausted, and without a retirement fund? In this honest and empowering conversation, Kim and 4 time returning guest Jessica Mitchell (a longtime health coach turned digital marketing mentor) open up about the financial realities many women over 50 face and the emotional toll that comes with it.

Together, they share their personal stories of burnout, failed side hustles, and the pressure of chasing clients in the coaching industry. They dive into why financial stress is a real health issue and how it affects sleep, mood, and relationships. Most importantly, they discuss how learning new digital skills has helped them regain time, income, and hope for the future.

This isn’t about shame or hustle. It’s about permission…to rest, to pivot, to learn something new, and to build financial stability in midlife without sacrificing your health or your peace.

Whether you’re a health coach, teacher, caregiver, or simply tired of the nine-to-five grind, this episode will inspire you to think differently about what’s possible for your midlife years.
