"Older marketing consultants are going to be the first ones to lose their clients in the age of AI." That was enough to send me into a tailspin.

I'm in marketing. I'm 59. And I felt it — that thing a lot of us feel but won't say out loud. Old. Irrelevant. Economically vulnerable. All at once.

This episode is about what I found when I stopped feeding the fear and started thinking about what I could do about it.

I'll tell you what nobody else is: the experience you've spent decades accumulating isn't the problem. It's the advantage.

And in this episode I'll show you exactly why — including the one mistake that's keeping you frozen and the PR trick that reframes everything. Plus, I'll get into why your Gen X training is something no algorithm can replicate.

Plus you'll meet Diane — proof that midlife is the ideal age for staring something brand new. 57. C-suite veteran. Just laid off. Currently pursuing multi-million dollar funding in an industry she's never worked in.

My money's on her. By the end of this episode, you'll know why — and you'll see exactly the same thing in yourself.

Listen to this if you want to know why you aren't starting over — you're actually starting AHEAD. Leagues ahead.

What does a Beverly Hills facelift actually cost? How do you choose a surgeon? And what do the people who work behind the scenes — the nurses, the recovery specialists, the practitioners who see every surgeon's work up close — what do THEY say when you ask them?

In this episode I break down exactly how I chose my surgeon, what I looked for, what questions matter, and what the real price range looks like for a top Beverly Hills facelift in 2026.

No fluff. No sugarcoating. Just the information I wish someone had given me before I started.

This is Episode 2 of my Going Public series — the complete, unfiltered story of my facelift at 59.

Sequel Opportunities is where women over 50 come to rewrite the rules. Hosted by Jeri Yoshida — PR strategist, former journalist, and unapologetic work in progress. Based between Los Angeles and Paris.

I liked the way I looked before my facelift. So why did I get one?

Not because I hated my reflection. Not because I felt young on the inside and old on the outside. I got a facelift for a completely different reason — and it's one most women feel deeply but rarely say out loud.

In this episode I'm getting personal. I'm talking about growing up mixed race in Los Angeles, the social currency of being an attractive woman, what happens when that currency starts to fade, and why losing visibility as we age isn't vanity — it's grief.

I also talk about what it felt like to make myself small for years so other women would feel more comfortable around me. And what I finally decided to do about all of it at 59.

This is Episode 1 of my Going Public series — where I'm documenting my entire facelift journey honestly and without apology.

If you've ever dimmed yourself so someone else could shine, this one's for you.
