The Collaborative Force of Anthologies, featuring Stephanie Raffelock

For Stephanie Raffelock, reinvention runs in the family. After her parents divorced when she was four, she watched her mother constantly reinvent herself as a single woman in the ‘50s, moving across the country every year. At just 17, Raffelock dropped out of school and moved to LA, where the drug-laden culture of the ‘60s and ‘70s led to self-medicating and homelessness. A passion for writing inspired her reinvention and she became a college freshman at 35. But life intervened and it would be three decades before she wrote her first book. In her conversation with CoveyClub founder, Lesley Jane Seymour, Raffelock explains how it’s never too late to reinvent–she attended a Buddhist college, interviewed luminaries such as Allen Ginsberg, and ultimately began her publishing career at 63.   FREE GIFT! Don’t start your reinvention without downloading CoveyClub’s starter guide called “31 Badass Tips for Launching Your Reinvention Without Fear!”    Bio: Stephanie Raffelock is the author of Creatrix Rising, Unlocking the Power of Midlife Women. (She Writes Press in August, 2021).  She also penned the award winning, bestseller, A Delightful Little Book on Aging.  A graduate of Naropa University’s program in Writing and Poetics, Stephanie was a contributor to The Rogue Valley Messenger, in Oregon.  She’s blogged for Nexus Magazine, Omaha Lifestyles, Care2.com as well as SixtyandMe.com.   Key Links: Books by Raffelock: A Delightful Little Book on Aging on Amazon Creatrix Rising on Amazon   Social media: Website LinkedIn Facebook Instagram Join CoveyClub: If you like what you hear, you can support the CoveyCast podcast with a five-star rating, and subscribe for more inspiring conversations.    Time Stamps   [00:3:02.00] Becoming a writer and working in journalism   [00:5:18.00] Struggling to work freelance and landing current job   [00:14:30.00] First book and burying stories   [00:16:06.00] Revision and reproduction    [00:19:12:00] Sexual violence and #MeToo   [00:22:02.00] The importance of telling your story    [00:29:15.00] Skills learned throughout writing life Social &amp; Website CoveyClub website Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn

#170: Her Reinvention as a Writer Happened at 63 (Stephanie Raffelock)

Enjoy this week's podcast interview with Stephanie Raffelock - as we discuss everything about the great creative surge that begins in midlife. Women all around us are demonstrating courage and purpose as they stand in the light of truth.  Regardless of your age - you can make a difference - and you can find that thing that gets you up in the morning. There is still so much inside of us to discover, to create, and to contribute.Stephanie is an author, blogger, and speaker. Her goal is to inspire women to embrace the strength and power of their story. Stephanie is the author of Creatrix Rising, Unlocking the Power of Midlife Women. She’s also penned the award winning book, A Delightful Little Book on Aging.  A former podcaster and i-Heart Radio host, she shares her passion for aging, women and feminist history.  You can find Stephanie here: stephanie.raffelock@gmail.com www.Byline-Stephanie.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-raffelock-01b53936/https://www.facebook.com/StephanieRaffelock/www.Instagram.com/byline.stephanieHere are her Key Takeaways:This is a great time for women to be alive and to find their voice and to have a seat at the table, in business, in politics, in a lot of areas, and it's also a time that takes a lot of work  from us still to step into the light of our truth  and claim our voice.Older women are the magicians of the culture - they have time to contemplate and reflect on life, and then shine that light for the women that stand behind them.In our culture right now, women are making things at a greater rate than ever before - that's the great creative surge. The third chapter is the most exciting chapter in the play or in the book - it's where the transformation happens.There is a reason that we slow down and part of that reason is to reflect on the arch of your life and to appreciate the gift that it's been. As you get older, there is more space that's created where you don't feel the need to constantly be ambitious.There is a reason that nature keeps us alive past our childbearing years - what is it? When women start to share their story, what we see is we are never as alone as we think we are- and it ceases to become my story or your story, but just THE story of womankind.When we act upon our own kindness - which is like the little black dress of emotion - it goes with everything - we really empower ourselves. That's what empowerment is …take the attention off yourself for a moment - and you'll get it back tenfold.Join the third  of our 6-part free Webinar series called The Midlife Rediscovery Blueprint  on Friday, June 10th at noon EST, where I will be talking about the Importance of Visioning Your Future.

It's good to be back after the Easter break and I have a bumper season of women to share with you.  If you are enjoying listening to my interviews and I leave you feeling inspired then please feel free to Buy Me A Coffee. Your support is much appreciated. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/RachelPeru1 Starting with this weeks guest, Stephanie Raffelock. Stephanie is an award winning, Amazon best selling Author of "A Delightful Little Book on Aging", as well as a Podcaster and Speaker. She didn't start her writing career until she retired at 60 so she's the perfect example of how our age doesn't have to define us. Stephanie helps self-aware, educated women who are interested in shirking the toxic myths and stereotypes of aging, something that out of the Bubble is very much about too.  She proves that women aren’t finished living their best lives at 50, 60 and beyond, but instead, how they become the wise elders of our culture. Stephanie celebrates age and shows how it’s a privilege to grow old - how every single day is a gift.  “Peter Pan’s mantra was that he was never going to grow up. My mantra is that we never stop growing”  Subjects covered-  Overcoming ageism in ourselves and in America.  Why women especially are afraid of getting older.  Creating joy in the maturer years Encore careers  The positive ageing movement  Grief-ageing begins in grief Reclamation Vision- wiser, deeper soul, wonder for life  Reframe and change the narrative Your age doesn’t define you  To find out more- www.Byline-Stephanie.com  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-raffelock-01b53936/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/StephanieRaffelock/  Instagram: www.Instagram.com/byline.stephanie  Don't miss any of the inspiring Out of the Bubble women, you can go and subscribe at www.rachelperu.co.uk and come and say hello on Instagram!  I have now created a FREE "Step Out of the Bubble" private group.

Stephanie helps self-aware, educated women who are interested in shirking the toxic myths and stereotypes of aging, something that out of the Bubble is very much about too.  She proves that women aren’t finished living their best lives at 50, 60 and beyond, but instead, how they become the wise elders of our culture. Stephanie celebrates age and shows how it’s a privilege to grow old - how every single day is a gift.  “Peter Pan’s mantra was that he was never going to grow up. My mantra is that we never stop growing”  Subjects covered-  Overcoming ageism in ourselves and in America.  Why women especially are afraid of getting older.  Creating joy in the maturer years Encore careers  The positive ageing movement  Grief-ageing begins in grief Reclamation Vision- wiser, deeper soul, wonder for life  Reframe and change the narrative Your age doesn’t define you  To find out more- <a href="//www.Byline-Stephanie.com " rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.Byline-Stephanie.com </a> LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-raffelock-01b53936/ " rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-raffelock-01b53936/ </a> Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/StephanieRaffelock/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/StephanieRaffelock/</a>  Instagram: <a href="//www.Instagram.com/byline.stephanie " rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.Instagram.com/byline.stephanie </a> Don't miss any of the inspiring Out of the Bubble women, you can go and subscribe at<a href="// www.rachelperu.co.uk" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> www.rachelperu.co.uk</a> and come and say hello on Instagram!  I have now created a FREE "Step Out of the Bubble" private group.

Dare to Live Your Dream with Stephanie Raffelock

What is a creatrix, you might ask?   According to Stephanie Raffelock the word creatrix is defined as “a woman who makes or creates things.” Stephanie suggests that creatrix may be a good replacement for crone when it comes to selecting an archetype for women to age into.  We love the idea of a woman continuing to “make things” beyond the biological clock of fertility. Stephanie Raffelock herself is a creatrix.  She is a storyteller and writer who published two books after she was 50. Creatrix Rising is her latest, and we were thrilled to speak with her about it on this week’s Twisting the Plot Podcast. Listen as Stephanie shares her story, the plot twists, and the role models who inspired her along the way. There is the poet Richard Blanco, her grandmother Julia, and the magical neighbor Austin.  Relationships matter to Stephanie. And now she matters to us. We need to remind ourselves that as with all kinds of evolution, there is no destination point, no complete, all-the-way healing, but rather more unfolding, more work to be done. We grow psychologically and spiritually until the time we die.  Stephanie Raffelock, The Creatrix Rising Learn more about Stephanie Raffelock at https://www.byline-stephanie.com/
