What makes a Fulfilling NEXT CHPTR?
PENELOPE MATHIESON
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND HOST
At 70, I’m not fading – I’m just getting louder.
Retirement stripped away the title, the routine, the purpose. So I built something new.
NEXT CHPTR CHATS™ is more than a podcast – it’s a movement for women ready to redefine aging, reclaim meaning, and write a next chapter that’s bold, brilliant, and completely our own.
