In this empowering episode of The No Expiration Date Podcast, we’re diving deep into how perimenopause and menopause impact your skin — and what you can actually do about it.

Ep 41: We're not Invisible, we're Invincible!

Hey ladies, welcome back to The No Expiration Date Podcast, where we remind women that midlife is not a decline — it’s a redesign. Today we’re talking about something many women feel but don’t always say out loud: feeling invisible in midlife. That moment when you walk into a room and feel overlooked… when men stop noticing you… when younger colleagues talk over you… and when you hesitate to speak up because you don’t want to be labeled “difficult” — or worse… a Karen . We get honest about where

Ep 40: Lifting without Limits

Is It Ever Too Late to Lift Weights? Spoiler: Absolutely Not. In this episode of The No Expiration Date Podcast , we sit down with personal trainer Kassandra to bust myths, drop science, and have some very real talk about why strength training is non-negotiable in midlife. Kassandra shares her journey from a high-stress career in banking to finding freedom, confidence, and purpose through lifting—and why helping women in midlife reclaim their strength (physically and mentally) lights her up. We

Ep 39: Redesigning Your Life: The Midlife Makeover You Deserve

Midlife isn’t a crisis — it’s a checkpoint. In this episode of The No Expiration Date Podcast, we’re talking about that feeling so many women carry but don’t always name: when life looks fine on paper, but something feels off in your body. The friendships that drain you, the job that pays the bills but costs your peace, the routines you’ve outgrown… and the quiet signs you keep ignoring because “this is just how it is.” This isn’t about burning it all down or starting over. It’s about redesignin

Ep 38: Why Women Love True Crime

Tonight’s self-care looks like: face mask on, candle lit, wine poured… and a soothing voice saying “she was last seen alive at 9:42 PM.” 😅 In this true crime episode of the No Expiration Date Podcast, we’re digging into the very real question: Why do women love true crime? (And why can we listen to murder podcasts while folding laundry… but still won’t answer the door for Amazon without checking the Ring camera first?) We unpack the stats (yes, the numbers don’t lie), the psychology behind it, a

Here’s a little bit about me! I’m originally from Covina, California — a proud mom, Air Force Veteran, serial entrepreneur, fitness lover, outdoor enthusiast, and solo travel junkie who’s always up for the next adventure! I joined the Air Force in 1993, thinking it would be a short chapter… but almost 24 years later, I retired in 2015 with a career full of unexpected twists, lessons, and growth. Life had a different plan — and I followed it with purpose. Cindy and I were active duty together on Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio then we both went into the Air National Guard. We have been friends over 20 years. We met while working together as Instructors in the Air Force and have been friends ever since.

I have one daughter who is also in the Air National Guard and lives in Dallas, Texas.

No pets at the moment, but coming soon!
