Lead, Mentor, Thrive: Lessons for Women Over 40 — Podcast

What if the biggest mistake you're making in your business right now isn't a strategy problem — it's a worth problem? And the answer might be hiding in this week's headlines. [PAUSE] Right now, the coaching and consulting world is buzzing about one thing: women over 40 are redefining what leadership actually looks like. We're not talking theory — we're talking Wimbledon boycotts, UK political chess moves, and a Nigerian police commissioner dropping leadership truth. Ask Ms. Prince pulled these stories together and what they reveal is a masterclass in how experienced women can lead, advocate, and build lasting legacies. Here's what you need to hear. [PAUSE] First — the world's top tennis players just pledged to limit their Wimbledon media commitments to 15 minutes the entire first week as a protest over their share of tournament revenue. They assessed their value, found it underrepresented, and took a coordinated professional stand. Sound familiar? If you've ever had a client lowball your expertise or signed a contract that didn't reflect what you actually bring — this is your reminder. Knowing your worth isn't arrogance. It's the foundation of a sustainable business. [PAUSE] Second — UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves publicly backed Andy Burnham for Prime Minister even after reports she'd be offered a more junior cabinet role if he wins. She didn't hedge. She didn't retreat. She stood behind the larger mission regardless of personal short-term cost. For women entrepreneurs over 40, that's the move. The most strategic decision isn't always the one that protects your current position — it's the one that builds long-term credibility. Integrity compounds. [PAUSE] Third — a Commissioner of Police in Nigeria just declared mentorship a "fundamental leadership responsibility" — not a bonus, not optional, but core infrastructure. This hits home. Women over 40 are sitting on decades of resilience, discernment, and real-world strategy. That wisdom multiplies when you pass it forward — through coaching, masterminds, or simply showing up consistently in your community. [PAUSE] Here's your one action item today. Look at your current pricing or your last proposal. Ask yourself honestly — does this number reflect who I've become, or who I was five years ago? Then adjust it. That's it. One number, one decision, today. You're not starting over — you're starting smarter. [PAUSE] Read the full article on the Midas blog at agentmidas.xyz.
