Manage episode 439145699 series 3564739
In today’s episode, I’m excited to introduce you to Tarina Ganger, the founder of Tranquil Guide. I first discovered Tarina through a pro-aging Instagram post about embracing new beginnings at any age—whether it's starting over at 40, finding yourself at 50, or getting married at 60. Tarina’s insightful comment caught my attention, and I knew I had to invite her on the show.
After a few technical bumps and some sound issues, I’m thrilled to finally share our conversation from this past spring. Tarina opens up about her journey of rebuilding her life after setbacks, including a transformative hysterectomy. With honesty and grace, she discusses her career in domestic violence, her decision to foster children, and the challenges she faced along the way. Tarina also shares how she navigated the impact of her hysterectomy on her identity and the steps she took to redefine her purpose, including volunteering and finding a job in pensions.
Tarina’s story is a powerful testament to resilience, embracing change, and learning to be more than your age in both big and small ways. From pursuing further education to taking a solo holiday, Tarina is loving life at 45 and inspiring others to chase their dreams, no matter where they are in life.
Tune in to hear how Tarina Ganger is charting her own path and encouraging others to do the same.
Enjoy the show!
