Crossing the Channel:
Courage, Visibility, and Reinvention After 50

An interactive 2-hour conversation inspired by Harriet Quimby’s historic flight

What do we do when we take bold steps… and the world doesn’t immediately notice?

In April 1912, Harriet Quimby became the first woman to fly solo across the English Channel. Her extraordinary achievement was largely overlooked. This conversation uses her story as a lens for individuals navigating transition later in life.

Who This Is For:
• Individuals aged 50+ navigating transitions
• Professionals seeking renewed purpose
• Anyone ready for a meaningful next step

What Participants Will Gain:
• Reframe transition as a courageous crossing
• Identify a next step
• Redefine their relationship with recognition
• Renew confidence grounded in experience
How the Workshop Works:
• Guided reflection
• Paired and small-group dialogue
• Facilitated insights
• Action-oriented outcomes

“It is not the crossing itself that defines us—but the courage to begin.”

Facilitated by:
