Build a table, not a stage

Starting over in midlife? Let's talk about it.

There comes a season when we start asking different questions. Am I financially prepared for what's next? Should I stay in my home or consider something different? Is it too late to start over? And where do I even begin?

That's why I'm creating The Midlife Reset Lunch & Learn, a free, 30-minute virtual gathering through The Pause & Power Circle. I will host real conversations about money, real estate, mortgages, lifestyle changes, and navigating this next chapter of life. I'll share practical information, answer questions, and create a space where women can learn and connect without feeling overwhelmed.

No pressure to turn on your camera. No complicated homework. Just one conversation and one small step at a time.
Whether one woman shows up or twenty, your question matters and the conversation around it matters!

Twice a month on Tuesdays at 12 PM ET

The six-session series

Come as you are. Bring your lunch and your questions.
  1. Session 1 · Money & Lifestyle

    Starting Over in Midlife: Where Do I Even Begin?

    Life doesn't always go according to plan. Discuss how to regain clarity around finances, living arrangements, and your next chapter.

  2. Session 2 · Real Estate

    Should I Stay, Sell, or Downsize?

    Explore housing costs, equity, lifestyle needs, and the questions to consider before making a move.

  3. Session 3 · Mortgage & Finance

    Can I Qualify for a Mortgage After 50?

    Demystify credit, income, debt, and how lenders evaluate applications. Age itself is not a mortgage disqualification.

  4. Session 4 · Lifestyle

    Who Am I Now? Rediscovering Yourself in Midlife

    Discuss shifting identity, confidence, relationships, boundaries, and taking small steps toward change.

  5. Session 5 · Finance & Home Equity

    House Rich, Cash Poor: What Are My Options?

    Explain home equity, HELOCs, refinancing, selling, and the trade-offs involved.

  6. Session 6 · Community

    Building Your Next Chapter: Money, Confidence & Connection

    A guided conversation about where women feel stuck and what type of support they want next.

Guest conversations

A guest joins every fourth session

From time to time Jennifer invites a guest to the table — for example a divorce mediator on rebuilding finances after divorce, a realtor, or a wellness educator on managing energy during major life transitions.

I'd love to sit with you at the lunch table.

Free registration required.

Sessions are general education, not legal, tax, financial or individualized mortgage advice. Financing is subject to credit approval and program guidelines.
