Bye-Bye PTA, Hello Prada: How Mature Women Can Slay Their ‘Badass Second Act’ Without Missing a Beat

Meet the Women Who Said "So What?": Three Pivot Queens
The Culinary Commando: A former accountant who swapped spreadsheets for spices, opened a food truck, and now has a waiting list of people who crave her grandmother's recipe. Interview questions include: "What was harder, tax season or managing your fryer?"
The Coder-Granny: A grandmother of six who, after her kids left the nest, taught herself to code and launched a successful app for... organizing playdates (because old habits die hard).
The Marathon Mom: A woman who started running in her 50s and, with her newfound "kick butt" energy, ran a full marathon at 55. Her motto? “If you can survive puberty, you can survive 26.2 miles.”
What bold move are you ready to confidently own and say, “bring it on” in your life?

▲ To create a mountain mist cocktail, muddle a fresh sprig of rosemary in a shaker to release its earthy fragrance, then add 1.5 ounces of a good-quality dry gin, 0.5 ounces of honey syrup for natural sweetness, 0.5 ounces of lemon juice, and a dash of bitters. Shake everything with ice until well-chilled, then strain the sophisticated, mountain-inspired concoction into a chilled coupe glass and garnish with an orange peel. Perfect for after a long hike—because nothing says “I conquered the wilderness” quite like sipping a zen-worthy cocktail that’s as elevated as your altitude.
