Dare On with Jodi
💜You did the mom thing—and you did it well.
Now the house is quieter, the roles have shifted, and you're asking: What’s next for me?
Welcome to Dare On with Jodi, the podcast for midlife women who are ready to dare more, doubt less, and live fully.
I’m Jodi Silverman—speaker, mindset coach, and your personal cheerleader for this next chapter of life. Every Thursday, you’ll hear real stories of reinvention, heartfelt solo episodes, and conversations that spark courage, confidence, and connection.
We talk midlife pivots, purpose, self-talk, happiness (yes, it’s possible!), and all the messy magic in between—sprinkled with a little woo and a lot of heart.
If you're craving more you in your life, this is your space.
🎧So grab your earbuds and let’s make Thursdays your favorite day of the week.

Heart to Heart:
Jodi Silverman is a certified life coach who’s here to walk beside you with encouragement and support. That said, she’s not a therapist or medical professional. If you’re facing something that needs clinical care or deeper healing, please don’t hesitate to connect with a trusted therapist or healthcare provider. You’re not alone, and you’re so worth that kind of care.

Reconnect With Yourself by Navigating the Empty Nest Transition
Today, we will discuss a topic close to the hearts of many women in our Moms Who Dare community: prioritizing oneself during change and transition.
For many mothers and fathers, parenting often becomes synonymous with their identity. But once your children leave the nest and go on their own adventures, we can find ourselves at a crossroads, grappling with the profound question: who am I outside of parenthood? The shift from full-time caregiver to reclaiming one's individuality can feel daunting, overwhelming, and at times, downright terrifying. Yet, there lies an opportunity for profound growth, self-discovery, and reinvention.
Enter Michael Dear, a therapist, coach, and speaker who specializes in helping individuals unearth their innate greatness, reignite their passions, and chart a course toward a fulfilling future.
Drawing upon his eclectic background in therapy and entertainment, Michael infuses his work with humor, compassion, and practical wisdom. He understands that life is a journey meant to be savored, not endured.
So, let’s dare to embrace the beauty of our evolving identities and the endless possibilities that lie ahead.
❤️ Your Dare for this week is to challenge yourself to engage in something daily that pushes you beyond your comfort zone. It doesn't have to be grand; it could be as simple as purchasing something you wouldn't typically consider or greeting the person in front of you in the checkout line.
