07: Overcoming Career Challenges as a Woman in Midlife with Molly Wilmer

Overcoming Career Challenges as a Woman in Midlife with Molly Wilmer

TW: mentions of suicide 

We all know that attitudes toward women in the workplace have changed a lot over the years, but have you ever thought about how women’s attitudes toward other women in the workplace have changed in recent years too?

Molly Wilmer is here in this episode to talk about the unique set of career challenges that women in midlife face. She’s sharing what she’s noticed about the shift towards women supporting other women in the workplace, how we can find more fulfillment in our work life, and why it’s okay for your life and career goals to change as you get older. 

Molly Wilmer is an executive coach who specializes in helping women break through career barriers and find fulfillment in their work. Her coaching approach is inspired by her own personal journey to find peace, joy, and empathy. She’s passionate about sharing what she’s learned to help others reach their goals.

Topics We Cover in This Episode: 

  • What we as women in midlife could learn from our daughters and the younger generation
  • The lack of connection and mentorship from other women that we have experienced 
  • Creating more room for sisterhood in the workplace 
  • Issues that women face in their careers 
  • Giving yourself permission to meet your wants and needs 
  • Why it’s okay for your boundaries, beliefs, and needs to change 

You have the power to make a difference in your own life and the lives of those around you. It takes courage to give yourself permission to make a change toward the life you want to be living, but I know you have it in you. I hope you find this episode inspiring as you think about what you want from your career in midlife.
