Welcome to The House of Middlescence—your unofficial HQ for bold living, solo life, second acts, and all the WTFs that come with aging out loud.
This isn’t a quiet chapter. It’s a glow-up.
I’m Barbara Brooks—founder of SecondActWomen, solo-ager, unapologetic champion of middlescent women (and the allies who get it), and your host here inside the content house for grown women rewriting what midlife really looks like.
Each week, we’re serving up real talk about career pivots, starting over, dating solo, building something new, personal branding, aging in the workplace, and everything else they don’t tell you about life after 40.
Expect unfiltered stories, expert convos, behind-the-scenes of running my second act, and a whole lot of “wait, what just happened?” moments—because that’s life, and we’re living it boldly.
Whether you’re shifting careers, growing your own thing, or simply tired of being underestimated, this space is for you.
Because age isn’t a decline—it’s your damn rise.
