Reinvention, Self-Doubt & The Chic Crone with Author Kirsten Marion

Reinvention, Self-Doubt & The Chic Crone with Author Kirsten Marion

In this inspiring episode, we’re joined by author and publisher Kirsten Marion to explore reinvention, aging with grace, and the mindset needed to unlock your creativity—especially later in life. From writing her first book at eight to navigating a career in finance, Kirsten now thrives as the author of The Chic Crone, a novel that reclaims the “crone” archetype and celebrates transformation at every age. We dive into what it means to adopt an author mindset, the sneaky power of self-doubt, and how women can move beyond guilt to fully embrace their creative identity. Whether you’re starting over at 60 or just picking up your pen for the first time, this conversation is your permission slip to leap.

About the Guest:
Kirsten Marion is a Canadian author and the publisher behind Common Deer Press. After a successful career in finance, she returned to her first love—storytelling. She's the author of three middle grade novels and the newly released adult novel The Chic Crone, a story that delves into loss, reinvention, and self-discovery. Kirsten now writes full-time and is a passionate advocate for creative courage and personal power at every life stage.

Key Takeaways:

  • Reinvention is possible at any age—start small and stay consistent.

  • Self-doubt is normal; name it, question it, and move forward anyway.

  • Women often struggle with guilt when prioritizing themselves—modeling bravery helps future generations.

  • You don’t need to know the whole path—just take the next right step.

  • The journey of becoming never ends—it’s never too late to start again.
