Today’s guest is Brenda Kilgallon — a change strategist, coach, and champion for women over 50 who are ready to stop putting everyone else first and finally live life on their own terms. With a career spanning corporate sales, training, lecturing, and running her own consultancy, Brenda has seen — and personally battled — sexism, ageism, and the glass ceiling. Those experiences shaped her mission: to empower women to embrace their brilliance, their femininity, and their unapologetic power. She’s the founder of Freedom To Be You coaching, creator of the Take The Bold Step programme, and host of the new women’s networking group Bold Northern Women. Brenda knows what it means to navigate transition — she’s done it herself many times — and now she helps others do the same with clarity, confidence, and courage.
