Turning 50: I am shredding my cv and re-crafting the unthinkable future

The Life Affairs Podcast - echte levensverhalen (EN/NL)

I turned 50 begin January; in this episode I talk about my experiences and my perspectives on aging and how it impacts job seeking. I share my personal journey, reshaping my CV not only with professional experiences but also with life teachings, and difficulties I faced due to age-related stereotypes. I encourage active defiance of such stereotypes and promotes embracing age as a means to acquire wisdom and resilience. Having navigated the realms of career, parenting, and societal expectations, I underscore that age is merely a number and does not limit capabilities. The episode serves as an empowering narrative for those navigating life after 50.
