Reinventing Yourself After 40 and Becoming Your Future Self

At BossMom, we’re normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana opens up about turning 44 and the deep internal work it took to reinvent herself at 40. Through stories of personal loss, business burnout, motherhood challenges, and identity shifts, she shares why reinvention isn’t a trendy self-help concept—it’s a vital evolution for mom entrepreneurs. You’ll hear how she used a unique strategy—embodying her future self through AI coaching—to rediscover purpose, reclaim confidence, and rebuild her business vision for the next decade.

This episode is a raw, empowering journey through grief, growth, and the quiet power of becoming who you were always meant to be.
