Have you ever wanted to hit the reset button and start a new career or a new life? If so, make sure you listen to this week's episode as we have an incredible woman on the podcast named Beverley Cottrell! Beverley graduated from Cambridge in the 1970s having studied veterinarian medicine and then started her career working as a vet while raising 4 children!
At 57, after a successful career working as a vet and entrepreneur (as she bought her own vet practice for her 40th birthday), when most people would be considering taking their foot off the gas pedal and easing into retirement, Beverley decided it was time reinvent herself and become a barrister (also known as a lawyer/attorney)! She eventually qualified at 60 years old as a barrister and practiced for nearly a decade! At 70 years old she decided to hang up her 'wig and gown' (barristers in the UK wear a wig and gown when they appear in court). However, Beverley has not taken the foot of the gas pedal, instead she has engaged a piano tutor and is planning on taking her piano exams soon and has seriously taken up the French language, travelling to France last year to stay with a host family in order to immerse herself in the language and culture.
This conversation was amazing - we talked about the mindset needed to reinvent yourself; how to find the confidence to do so; and answer some questions from EnvisionAirs who are looking to reinvent themselves.
I hope you enjoy this episode and it inspires anyone listening to follow your heart and dreams - as it's possible to reinvent yourself at any age!
If you found this episode helpful, please leave a 5* review, it helps the podcast and would mean so much! Also, please forward it a friend that you think needs to hear this episode, especially if they are struggling to find the confidence to take the next steps.
Keep envisioning and living your best lives!
Lots of love EnvisionAirs,
