Midlife Strategies for Badass Women

In this powerful episode of Midlife Strategies for Badass Women, Sue Willoughby sits down with Gina Economopoulos—whose life journey is anything but ordinary. Born into a large Greek-Italian family, Gina has worn more hats than most people dare to dream: social worker, bartender, nun, caregiver, author, and now a certified end-of-life doula. Her story is one of deep faith, unshakable resilience, addiction recovery, and spiritual awakening.
You’ll hear about:
Surviving grief, trauma, and addiction
Life inside (and outside) a convent
Embracing sobriety after losing the love of her life
The sacred calling of being an end-of-life doula
How to find peace, purpose, and power in your own story—even after hitting rock bottom
If you’ve ever felt lost, broken, or unsure of what’s next, Gina’s journey will leave you inspired, grounded, and ready to reclaim your own midlife magic.
 
🕊️ Trigger warning: This episode contains honest conversation about grief, death, and addiction recovery.

In this powerful Pride Month finale of A Life Worth Being, host Sue Willoughby reunites with filmmaker couple Dana Croschere and Krisanna Sexton, co-creators of the groundbreaking documentary Rescued Hearts.

In this episode, Dana and Krisanna share:
How Rescued Hearts began, and the unexpected role South Africa played in its evolution
The transformational healing they both experienced with Candace Webster and her herd
The raw, real truth about creating—and living—a love that defies shame and conditioning
Their shared sobriety journey, and how clarity became a portal to purpose

What does it really mean to be a man today—and what if the old rules never fit in the first place?In this bold and heart-centered episode of A Life Worth Being, host Sue Willoughby is joined by coach, facilitator, and podcast host Travis Stock, whose work challenges outdated ideas of masculinity and invites people of all identities to live from wholeness.A former social worker turned Equus coach, Travis shares how working with horses helped him break free from performance, perfectionism, and societal pressure. As the founder of The New Masculine podcast, he creates space for men, queer folks, and non-binary individuals to reimagine what leadership, connection, and emotional expression can look like.💬 In this conversation, we explore:How horses reveal what we’re really feeling—no hiding allowed
The trauma of masculine socialization and the cost of "being a man"
Why community and relational repair are essential to thriving
Using experiential coaching to unlock truth and transformation
The magic of Equus coaching (and a laugh-out-loud story about herding horses with a partner)
We also talk about our upcoming Equus Coaching Demo Day in August, and why now more than ever, it's time to reconnect to your body, your truth, and each other.

The mental and emotional toll of suppressing identity for the sake of conformity
The role of astrology in creating a blueprint for healing and growth
Why community, storytelling, and curiosity are essential for collective liberation

What does it take to live fully as yourself—after decades of hiding who you really are?
In this moving episode of A Life Worth Being, Sue Willoughby sits down with Wendy Cole, a transgender woman who began her transition at age 67, after more than 45 years of trying to survive a life that never fit.

💬 In this episode, you’ll hear:
Why gender identity is hardwired—and misunderstood by most of society
How decades of suppression shaped Wendy’s mental health and relationships
What finally sparked her transition and self-acceptance
The impact of therapy, spiritual growth, and community
How Wendy is now helping others by educating, speaking, and co-hosting the “Demystifying Transgender” podcast
