253. Ask Stacy | Can I really build a writing and editing career in my 50s?

What do you do when you've spent nearly 30 years building one career, and your heart is quietly pulling you toward something different? In this week’s episode, I'm answering a question from Katie, a higher education professional in her early 50s who's dreaming of transitioning into writing and editing.

I share why I believe that it is never too late to reinvent yourself professionally. From my grandfather who saw patients as a surgeon well into his 90s, to a friend who successfully made this exact career pivot later in life.

In this episode, I walk through practical steps for making a career transition into writing and editing, including the value of certificate programs, the mindset work that I think is as important as the tactical stuff, and why—surprise, surprise—I think writing a book might be one of the most powerful things you can do as you make this shift.

Whether you're Katie, or you're someone else sitting with a big career question of your own, I hope this episode leaves you inspired and reminded that change is always possible.
