https: 00:01:32

now on YouTube, there is this beam of light radiating through our heads.

https: 00:01:38

We have no idea where it's coming from.

https: 00:01:40

We've been moving the furniture.

https: 00:01:41

We've been doing everything we can here.

https: 00:01:43

So we're just going to go with it.

We're going to call it the Sofa Series because that's what we're doing.

https: 00:02:12

We're sitting here on the sofa.

https: 00:02:14

As we do every once in a while and solve all the problems of the world.

https: 00:02:18

Absolutely.

https: 00:02:19

There's something about being on the sofa.

https: 00:02:21

Having my ass grounded on this couch.

https: 00:02:25

Welcome to Seasoned Women, Serious Business, Wise Enough to Want More.

https: 00:02:33

And my very special partner here, Jackie Wazalick, who has been the

https: 00:02:40

wind beneath my wings for a long time.

https: 00:02:45

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: And every once in a while we switch.

https: 00:02:47

Isabel Alexander, DOB: We have a lot of names for each other.

https: 00:02:50

Some of those we will not share with you right now.

https: 00:02:53

Look, there's something going on with the lighting.

https: 00:02:55

I don't know.

https: 00:02:56

It's so crazy.

https: 00:02:59

Why are we here today?

https: 00:03:03

It's because I'm on the cusp of 70.

https: 00:03:07

By the time you watch this, I will be.

https: 00:03:11

Jackie's just slightly ahead of the curve of me.

https: 00:03:16

And we recognize through conversation between us and with other friends

https: 00:03:22

that there is a lot of being in isolation and feeling like we

https: 00:03:29

don't have it all figured out.

https: 00:03:34

fund,

https: 00:03:38

https: 00:04:35

are wise enough to want more.

https: 00:04:39

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: true story.

https: 00:04:41

Everything changes, every sort of the decades bring us into a

https: 00:04:46

new awareness of what's going on.

https: 00:04:48

And we knew who we were raising kids.

https: 00:04:51

We knew who we were running businesses.

https: 00:04:53

We knew who we were volunteering, sitting on boards, whatever we did.

https: 00:04:59

But there comes a time when some of those things no longer light our fire.

https: 00:05:07

Sometimes those things no longer serve us in the way they served us in the past.

https: 00:05:13

And so our friends tended I speak for myself.

https: 00:05:17

My friends tended to be those that I met up with every

https: 00:05:19

month at association meetings.

https: 00:05:21

My friends tended to be my, some of my customers because it was just good doing

https: 00:05:26

business with people I liked, right?

https: 00:05:29

Retirement, a long Awaited retirement actually brought me into a space of,

https: 00:05:36

ah, all this time to explore now.

https: 00:05:38

And so I'm having fun exploring, but I would love to find something that just lit

https: 00:05:44

my soul up and got me up in the morning and make my life a legacy life, right?

https: 00:05:52

So that people are, and I say this sort of oddly, but I hope people

https: 00:05:58

are going to miss me when I'm gone.

https: 00:06:01

Thank God she's off this planet.

https: 00:06:05

I do want to make a contribution to the world.

https: 00:06:08

Continue to do that.

https: 00:06:10

Because I think the impact we have on the world is really the most important

https: 00:06:14

thing we can do while we're alive,

https: 00:06:16

Isabel Alexander, DOB: you touched on a whole lot of important themes

https: 00:06:21

for me because retirement, what the hell does that mean anymore?

https: 00:06:28

Knowing who we are now, because it sure as hell is a surprise to most of us.

https: 00:06:37

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: Yeah, there's all kinds of things

https: 00:06:39

that show up that Wow, who knew?

https: 00:06:43

Isabel Alexander, DOB: Not welcome things and some other

https: 00:06:45

delightful bonus surprises, right?

https: 00:06:48

Because to your point, Jackie, when and so Just to explain for those who

https: 00:06:54

don't know her, Jackie has just recently sold her business, and that's how she

https: 00:07:00

and I reconnected talking about what it's like to be in that period of not

https: 00:07:08

having every moment of your day and every It's a very down to earth thought

https: 00:07:13

driven by the activities that your business demands of you, or that you

https: 00:07:18

have actually created for yourself.

https: 00:07:20

And you mentioned friendships and relationships, because that's the other

https: 00:07:24

thing, that if you are a seasoned woman, and when you sell your business or you

https: 00:07:30

start to prepare for that, oh my god!

https: 00:07:33

Our relationships, our community, is so

https: 00:07:39

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: interwoven

https: 00:07:40

Isabel Alexander, DOB: into who we hang out with and who we show

https: 00:07:44

up for and who we don't show up for, is another factor which is.

https: 00:07:50

Absolutely.

https: 00:07:51

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: There's also those who are like, huh, I tolerated

https: 00:07:55

that for quite a while, right?

https: 00:07:57

Oh my goodness.

https: 00:07:58

Yeah.

https: 00:07:58

Why?

https: 00:07:59

Isabel Alexander, DOB: Yeah.

https: 00:08:01

Therefore, shouldn't come as a big surprise to us that, holy fuck,

https: 00:08:08

there's a lot to figure out now, right?

https: 00:08:11

And I don't know if generally more people are smarter that

https: 00:08:17

they anticipated all of this.

https: 00:08:20

But I sure as hell didn't.

https: 00:08:22

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: Yeah.

https: 00:08:23

Isabel Alexander, DOB: I was still living in the la fantasy land

https: 00:08:26

of life of leisure, sleeping in.

https: 00:08:31

going to the spa, hanging out for lunch with friends, catching up on all

https: 00:08:38

those things I said I was going to do.

https: 00:08:41

All of that takes about five minutes.

https: 00:08:45

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: Yeah.

https: 00:08:45

And then you find this little chunk of time that's not dictated by

https: 00:08:48

what showed up on your phone today,

https: 00:08:50

Isabel Alexander, DOB: right?

https: 00:08:51

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: Yeah.

https: 00:08:52

Isabel Alexander, DOB: And even how that just, it's not bad.

https: 00:08:54

We're not saying don't do this.

https: 00:08:56

We're saying, Just be prepared, be open, and have grace for yourself when

https: 00:09:02

suddenly you feel like you have fallen down the rabbit hole and Alice isn't

https: 00:09:08

even there to give you directions.

https: 00:09:10

And it's what the hell?

https: 00:09:13

Who am I?

https: 00:09:14

And what am I going to do with myself?

https: 00:09:16

And

https: 00:09:16

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: how long can I have lunch, right?

https: 00:09:19

Isabel Alexander, DOB: Ladies do lunch.

https: 00:09:21

Only a very boring people.

https: 00:09:23

Yeah,

https: 00:09:24

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: It, there really does need to be something that just

https: 00:09:26

fires us up and something that really

https: 00:09:31

contributes, right?

https: 00:09:34

Isabel Alexander, DOB: That brings us to the other point you

https: 00:09:37

brought up, and that is legacy.

https: 00:09:39

Yeah.

https: 00:09:41

Now, maybe, is the time where, instead of just being driven every day by other

https: 00:09:48

people's agendas and the chaos that we've created for ourselves, is that moment to

https: 00:09:54

pause and go, why will my life matter?

https: 00:09:58

Yeah.

https: 00:09:59

What have I been doing on this planet for the last 60 plus years that anybody

https: 00:10:07

will care at all about afterwards?

https: 00:10:11

Hopefully there are enough people that we have been, we have loved

https: 00:10:15

and created a relationship with that will miss us a little and

https: 00:10:20

say something maybe nice about us.

https: 00:10:22

But really in the end, once that's done and they all go

https: 00:10:25

back to their own lives, what.

https: 00:10:28

What are you leaving here?

https: 00:10:31

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: And, Isabel and I attended an event on Friday

https: 00:10:34

that was really quite inspirational.

https: 00:10:37

And I see women younger than us doing some great things and making

https: 00:10:43

an impact on their community.

https: 00:10:45

And I think that's lovely.

https: 00:10:47

And I also know that we have so much to give back, yet we've given it so much

https: 00:10:57

over our lives, that there's also that, I don't even know if it's a fear, or a,

https: 00:11:05

maybe it's time to just relax and we are enough, we are, we've got enough And what

https: 00:11:12

can I share but also without again losing ourselves in that busyness and in that

https: 00:11:20

whole scope of why am I doing this sitting down at the end of the day instead of I'm

https: 00:11:26

doing this because I just love doing it.

https: 00:11:31

Oh

https: 00:11:31

Isabel Alexander, DOB: my gosh, Jackie, when you said that my heart took a little

https: 00:11:34

bit of a flip flop because I wondered is that part of the difficulty in this

https: 00:11:41

transition is if we stop being busy and visible and giving of ourselves,

https: 00:11:53

do we become invisible?

https: 00:11:54

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: Yeah.

https: 00:11:55

And is that less of us?

https: 00:11:57

I don't, I don't know, figuring out these really deep questions

https: 00:12:01

of what does this look like?

https: 00:12:04

And

https: 00:12:06

Isabel Alexander, DOB: I go back to my concern is that there are millions

https: 00:12:11

of us just in this one little patch of the planet, millions of us in our 60s,

https: 00:12:19

70s, and beyond that are in this role.

https: 00:12:22

I think we're in isolation most of the time.

https: 00:12:25

These aren't conversations that I've had the opportunity to have often

https: 00:12:31

enough, and that's really why I started the podcast, was to be able

https: 00:12:36

to talk to women of a certain age.

https: 00:12:39

Oh, what a horrible expression that is.

https: 00:12:42

But seasoned women, because as business owners, we've got like

https: 00:12:50

appetite for life.

https: 00:12:52

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: That's all I could say.

https: 00:12:53

That's a beautiful way to express it.

https: 00:12:55

Isabel Alexander, DOB: I am hungry

https: 00:12:57

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: To learn and to be part of and to,

https: 00:13:00

Isabel Alexander, DOB: yeah,

https: 00:13:00

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: experience more.

https: 00:13:02

Isabel Alexander, DOB: Yeah, so how do we still satisfy that appetite of

https: 00:13:08

curiosity, and having some influence and impact and feeling like we

https: 00:13:15

matter, we're relevant, without having to go sacrificing, again, health.

https: 00:13:23

personal time, growth, reflection.

https: 00:13:28

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: And the ability to have fun and find

https: 00:13:31

humor and find joy again, right?

https: 00:13:35

That take ourselves really seriously and have.

https: 00:13:41

And so when I find that little bit of joy and that spark of humor and

https: 00:13:47

sitting down with people who can laugh about the same things, right?

https: 00:13:51

Because that's another piece of it.

https: 00:13:56

Isabel Alexander, DOB: For instance, memory.

https: 00:13:58

brain fog, forgetting why you walked into a room.

https: 00:14:02

Why have we allowed ourselves to be convinced that's something to be ashamed

https: 00:14:09

of and cover up or ridicule ourselves?

https: 00:14:14

Oh my god, my brain is so full, like I'm still cramming

https: 00:14:19

all this new stuff in there.

https: 00:14:21

Give me a break.

https: 00:14:22

Every once in a while I have to wait for the CD to come around again.

https: 00:14:27

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: I was laughing when I had some conversations with

https: 00:14:33

some other women, and some older than me, and, it's more like playing a

https: 00:14:37

game of charades sometimes, right?

https: 00:14:41

Remember when, do you know who that is?

https: 00:14:44

Yes, I remember who she was.

https: 00:14:45

What was her name?

https: 00:14:47

And so we go back and forth and it isn't, I think, a matter of, As Isabel and I,

https: 00:14:54

one of my 80 year old friends one day at lunch, couldn't remember a name of a

https: 00:15:00

woman, and the other woman said to her, who was a dear friend of hers you D.

https: 00:15:04

O.

https: 00:15:04

B.?

https: 00:15:05

And she said, What do you mean?

https: 00:15:06

You demented old bitch?

https: 00:15:09

Can we laugh at those moments instead of feeling Oh, shit, we're

https: 00:15:14

going down the rabbit hole, man.

https: 00:15:16

I don't even want to be in public.

https: 00:15:18

We don't need to be ashamed of those moments.

https: 00:15:21

We need to embrace those moments and know that we have good friends

https: 00:15:24

that gotta have our backs, right?

https: 00:15:27

And we can laugh about it with.

https: 00:15:30

Isabel Alexander, DOB: Let's be honest, is there ever a time in your life

https: 00:15:33

that you feel that you could remember every single thing in the instant, the

https: 00:15:38

nanosecond, or the name of the person that you met once at a networking event?

https: 00:15:44

Why are we putting more emphasis on it now?

https: 00:15:51

And truly, I do believe that there is a, justification in that.

https: 00:15:57

Look how much our generation has learned and experienced, and that we're cramming

https: 00:16:05

it in there, cramming it in there.

https: 00:16:08

And so I feel like I never forget anything.

https: 00:16:11

It just takes a while to find it.

https: 00:16:12

Yeah.

https: 00:16:14

But why should we feel less than for that?

https: 00:16:21

The lights are just playing tricks again.

https: 00:16:23

I don't know.

https: 00:16:24

It's pretty cool.

https: 00:16:25

I think that this is a sign, okay?

https: 00:16:29

Everybody who's watching This you're witnessing some

https: 00:16:33

celestial aura that's going on.

https: 00:16:35

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: Yeah,

https: 00:16:37

Isabel Alexander, DOB: That's because we are DOB and it doesn't have

https: 00:16:42

anything to do with light bulbs.

https: 00:16:45

And I love that expression.

https: 00:16:47

I'm so happy you shared that because that was yours to share.

https: 00:16:51

Originally, I thought DOB stood for date of birth, but I am having way much

https: 00:16:57

more fun with this version of DOB, and I am now, tempted to sign my credit card

https: 00:17:04

statements and everything else with that, because why not have fun, and that's

https: 00:17:13

That is the pact between Jackie and I.

https: 00:17:17

If it's not fun, we're not fucking doing it.

https: 00:17:20

That's

https: 00:17:21

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: just doesn't make sense anymore, right?

https: 00:17:24

I love this.

https: 00:17:27

Isabel Alexander, DOB: And we are still, we are women.

https: 00:17:33

We are mothers, wives, grandchildren, grandmothers, friends, business owners,

https: 00:17:38

multiple business owners, careers, and

https: 00:17:45

Being involved and giving a hand up.

https: 00:17:47

That's another thing that j Jackie and I share the philosophy of lifting

https: 00:17:52

as you climb, becoming the best version of yourself in the moment.

https: 00:17:59

It is not work that is ever done

https: 00:18:02

. Jackie Wszalek, DOB: And good.

https: 00:18:03

It's really good.

https: 00:18:04

Yeah.

https: 00:18:04

And I think one of the other things that I really love

https: 00:18:07

about my life is I have people.

https: 00:18:10

in my sphere that are different ages, different races, different points of view,

https: 00:18:18

and they can be male also, honestly, I have no problems with Whoever shows up is

https: 00:18:26

welcome and let them share in this whole experience of being on the planet, right?

https: 00:18:34

But it's so much more fun.

https: 00:18:35

To me, that is

https: 00:18:36

Isabel Alexander, DOB: the ultimate in diversity and inclusion.

https: 00:18:40

The more diverse, the richer the circle around you.

https: 00:18:46

And, by the way, That doesn't happen accidentally.

https: 00:18:50

It has to be done purposefully.

https: 00:18:52

It's up to you to reach out and expand.

https: 00:18:57

I love that I can learn from people that are three generations younger than me and

https: 00:19:06

I can teach them a few things too, right?

https: 00:19:09

And together, it's Oh, wow.

https: 00:19:12

I didn't see it that way.

https: 00:19:14

That's pretty cool to see it differently, right?

https: 00:19:17

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: Yeah.

https: 00:19:18

I'm grateful.

https: 00:19:20

Isabel Alexander, DOB: Grateful, absolutely.

https: 00:19:22

That's why travel.

https: 00:19:24

for me is so important because I'm continuing to see the world through

https: 00:19:30

different eyes, different cultures, different flavors, different

https: 00:19:34

colors, and it just, that's all part of that continuing life, right?

https: 00:19:39

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: Absolutely.

https: 00:19:41

Isabel Alexander, DOB: So because we're sitting here doing all this

https: 00:19:43

talking, I'd really like to give you the opportunity Let us know,

https: 00:19:49

for you, was it like a slam dunk?

https: 00:19:52

You knew exactly who you were when you turned 60 or 65 or 70 or 75 or 105?

https: 00:20:00

Because if you knew who you were going to be then, did you feel like

https: 00:20:07

it was all that you wanted it to be?

https: 00:20:10

Oh my god, this lighting is crazy!

https: 00:20:12

It is absolutely insane!

https: 00:20:15

And there were swear, swear, no alcohol yet.

https: 00:20:19

Yeah.

https: 00:20:21

So that's the conversation we'd love to welcome you here into the living

https: 00:20:27

room with us and comment so that we may have some more conversations around

https: 00:20:35

the topics that you care about and the questions that you have, or the

https: 00:20:39

stories that you can share with us.

https: 00:20:43

That'd be awesome.

https: 00:20:44

That would be awesome, right Isabel?

https: 00:20:45

We're going to create a tapestry with you, and I believe that's what we're supposed

https: 00:20:53

to be doing now, at this age as seasoned women is that we've got a whole lot of

https: 00:21:01

threads in our lives that we can bring together and we can crochet whatever not

https: 00:21:07

to get you know too cute about it all but it's true it's by not being alone in our

https: 00:21:15

own perspective or self doubt or worry and maybe you got the coolest idea to be

https: 00:21:25

able to lift others as you are climbing.

https: 00:21:29

'cause I, that's the other part of what we talk about is that staying young at heart.

https: 00:21:40

Through laughter, through play, through curiosity, through meeting new people

https: 00:21:46

and new perspectives, trying new things.

https: 00:21:48

Oh my God, look at us sitting here on the couch.

https: 00:21:51

We couldn't get the mics, the lavaliers, we didn't work.

https: 00:21:54

So hopefully the sound quality is good enough for you.

https: 00:21:59

We are not in a professional studio.

https: 00:22:02

There are some professionals who would like to put us someplace,

https: 00:22:08

but we're not going

https: 00:22:10

Jackie Wszalek, DOB: anywhere.

https: 00:22:12

https: 00:22:34

It's not just for us.

https: 00:22:35

I guess if we're the old broads, then what are the guys?

https: 00:22:39

I don't know, but

https: 00:22:43
