Find your voice and tell your story - at any age - with Sandy Lowres

Today’s guest on the Not Just About Copy podcast is Sandy Lowres.

Sandy is a pro-ageing advocate and the founder & Creative Director of the award-winning platform Wb40 - Women Beyond Forty, sharing the hard-won wisdom of women 40, 50, 60 and beyond. Sandy is the host of The Good Girl Confessional Podcast and the co-host of Alex The Seal Podcast.

In this episode of Not Just About Copy, you’ll hear about:

• Why Sandy created the Wb40 platform and the unexpected benefits of the journey
• How we can embrace ageing - life really does begin at 40 
• The getting of wisdom and self-confidence and stepping into power post-50
• Sandy’s creative process for writing and idea generation
• Why avoiding so-called ‘taboo’ topics doesn’t serve anyone
• The tremendous power of storytelling and language in helping others be seen, and
• Why each of us deserves to have our story told.

It was an absolute privilege speaking with Sandy for this conversation. I met her several months ago at an event and just knew she would be such a great guest for this podcast. I know you’re going to love it. Please take 30 seconds and share it with a friend to spread the word.
