What happens when you leave the security of your long-time career and take a leap into entrepreneurship—at midlife?

In this inspiring episode, Cathy sits down with a guest who did exactly that. Meet Mandi Milligan, CEO of The Milligan Image. After leaving her job in marketing and communications, she made the decision to build her own business from the ground up.

Together, they talk candidly about the fears, financial risks, and unexpected setbacks—including what it feels like when a major client backs out, or when five projects hit your inbox at once. But also the freedom, the flexibility, and the deep sense of purpose that comes with doing work on your own terms.

If you’ve been wondering whether it's too late to start over or dream bigger—this conversation will encourage you to trust your instincts, embrace the unknown, and know that you're not alone.
