Failing with Flair: Finding Joy in Reinvention with Ailsa Page

Some people carry joy like a sparkler — lighting up even the darkest rooms. Ailsa Page is one of them. But behind her laughter is a story of reinvention, heartbreak, resilience, and the courage to drop the facade.

In this episode of Suddenly Different, Ailsa shares how divorce, depression, and performance anxiety cracked her open to new ways of living. From saying “no” for the first time, to rediscovering music as a lifeline, to learning that standing ovations don’t always equal fulfillment, her journey reminds us that joy isn’t found in perfection — it’s found in presence.


We talk about:
✨ The moment her facade fell away and she discovered the relief of being real.
✨ Why failure can be the doorway to unexpected magic.
✨ Music, tap dancing, and the healing power of creative play.
✨ Why it’s never too late to begin again — with flair.


If you’ve ever felt broken, behind, or afraid it’s “too late,” this conversation is your invitation to find joy not in spite of life’s detours, but because of them.
