Can your most meaningful work begin after 50? Executive and leadership coach Dr. Sanaz Solomon proves it can.

In this kickoff episode of the BoldTimers {https://www.linkedin.com/company/boldtimers/} collaboration, we unpack:

  • Surviving vs. Thriving (02:43 ): How to move from routine survival to living with energy and purpose.
  • Leaving a Stable Career for Meaning (03:28 ): Why Dr. Solomon walked away from a 20-year career to realign with her values.
  • The Sunk Cost Fallacy (04:54 ): How “settling” can quietly hold you back—and how to release what no longer fits.
  • Naming Fear and Moving Through It (10:00 ): Practical ways to separate self-doubt from fear of judgment and move forward anyway.
  • Ageism, Judgment, and Self-Worth (12:40 ): How to reframe experience as a superpower, not a setback.


If you’re ready to pivot toward work that feels meaningful—whether consulting, coaching, or launching a mission-driven venture—this episode offers a roadmap for reinvention rooted in courage, experience, and self-trust.

Your second act starts with one honest step.
