From Hollywood stardom to the deeply personal reinvention that midlife demands, Sasha Alexander opens up in a way you’ve never heard before.

In this conversation, Sasha and Roxy go far beyond the usual Hollywood narrative. They get real about the quiet identity shifts that sneak up on women in their 40s and 50s—the career pivots, the friendship shake-ups, the hormone changes, the moments when your old life simply doesn’t fit anymore.

Sasha shares what it’s really like to rebuild your sense of purpose after decades in the entertainment world, how she’s navigating midlife transitions with honesty and curiosity, and why this chapter has opened up an entirely new definition of power for her.

Whether you’re rethinking your career, redefining your relationships, or reclaiming parts of yourself that got lost along the way, this episode will make you feel seen, grounded, and a little more fearless about what comes next.
