From Fearful to Fully Seen: How Larissa Mills Reinvented Herself in Her 50s

The moments when we question ourselves can reveal strengths we never knew we had

Larissa Mills went from a season of severe anxiety where she struggled to leave her house and questioned whether she had accomplished anything, to building a creator career in her 50s. 

In this episode of Superwomen, I sat down with Larissa to talk about how her daughter’s viral TikTok video opened a door she never expected to walk through. She shares how she slowly rebuilt her confidence, used her background in marketing to create a personal brand, and learned to trust the opportunities already in front of her.

This episode is for anyone navigating a transition, rebuilding after a difficult chapter, or wondering if it’s too late to start something new.
