The Boomer Woman’s Podcast is a conversation-driven show for women who know that life doesn’t stop at midlife—it opens up.
Hosted by Agnes Knowles, the podcast is now in its 7th season and features engaging conversations with guests whose ideas, experiences, and insights are relevant to Boomer women navigating what comes next. Guests may be any age or gender, but their message is always thoughtful, positive, and genuinely useful.
These are not lectures or quick takes. They’re real conversations—curious, open-minded, inclusive, and sometimes unexpected. You might learn something new, rethink an old assumption, or simply feel less alone in the questions you’re asking.
If you’re willing to be curious, tolerant, and open to different perspectives, you’ll feel right at home here.

Eight years ago, Wendy Leggett found herself at a crossroads after a successful and energizing 25-year career in sales leadership. So, she took the leap and ultimately founded her company, where she guides clients through a fulfilling retirement transition, focusing on well-being, identity, feelings of purpose, connectedness, and positive aging.
In this episode, she discusses:
- What, beyond the financials, is critical for retirement success
- Significant misconceptions about retirement
- How to go about reframing both purpose and identity
- “Transitions” as an internal change
- How being single or married affects a lot of choices
- Our role models for retirement probably weren’t positive
- Pro-aging and positive aging
Wendy has many nuggets throughout our conversation, some of my favourites are “If you are what you do, who are you when you don’t?” and the difference between finding our purpose and feeling purposeful.
