She Let Go of Who She Was to Become Who She Wanted: Mairi Watson (S8 E6)
Description
She walked away from everything familiar — and built something extraordinary in its place. At 60, Mairi Watson is proving that the second and/or the third act can be the most powerful of all.
Born between two worlds — Scottish mountains and American summers — Mairi Watson has always lived with one foot on the edge of adventure.
But her boldest chapter didn’t begin until 50, when she packed a bag, walked the Camino de Santiago alone, and came home forever changed.
In this episode, Mairi shares the sweeping story of reinvention: from raising three children and moving across countries, to selling her family home and launching Les Joly Dames, a walking and yoga retreat in the French Alps designed just for women. She speaks candidly about stepping into a maternal role as a young woman for her siblings, discovering a love of fitness and adventure later in life, and how it’s never too late to chase your passions.
This is not just a travel story or a business story — it’s a personal revolution, a reminder that it’s never too late to rewrite your narrative, claim your space, and live wide open.
