Quick Lift: Living True, Moving Strong, Aging Boldly for Women in Leadership
In this Quick Lift for our female leadership podcast, Betsy recaps Patty Sibbach and Kathy Anderson-Martin’s “Triple Threat” approach for women in leadership: be authentic, stay active, and lead with an ageless mindset. From clarifying what truly matters to building sustainable wellness habits, Patty and Kathy show how women supporting women can fuel leadership confidence and real career momentum in the second half of life. You’ll hear how investing in health, focusing on priorities, and leading with intention can transform your next chapter—at work and at home.
Listeners will learn:
Why authenticity falters when mind, body, and spirit are on empty—and how to refuel with simple habits.
How to “major on the majors,” give yourself grace, and stop sweating the small stuff.
Practical wellness routines and a fresh perspective on aging that make every birthday worth celebrating—and every week more impactful.
