About this episode

Cathy Fitzgerald shares her journey of resilience and starting over in her 50s after facing numerous life challenges.

My guest, Cathy Fitzgerald is not to be underestimated. She is no stranger to change and uncertainty. Her story begins at the age of 17 when she became a teen mom. She immediately married and had another child. The marriage ended in betrayal leading to a divorce. She quickly remarried and blended two families all before the age of 30! If that wasn't enough, she went on to start an incredibly successful dance studio (900 students) and had another child - putting her total to 6! On the outside things looked perfect. A great career and community, a nice home, 6 beautiful children and a successful spouse. What others didn't see was an empty marriage where she lived in a constant state of confusion and dread. She worked really hard at holding it all together until it all started to fall apart. It started with her own health, caretaking for her aging parents and the revelation about her husband that would change everything. This is a story about Cathy finding her honest edge more than once. She started her entire life over in her 50's and wants you to know that you can, at any time begin again ... again! You can find her HERE at age-wild.com Or on her instagram
