Letting Go of the Plan (and Finding Something Better) with Beth Schillaci

When you finally decide to make a change… and life has other plans.

In this episode, I’m joined by Beth Schillaci, creator of Roaming Yeti and host of Pop Culture Passport, for an honest conversation about what it looks like to reinvent yourself in midlife—when things don’t go the way you imagined.

Beth left behind 25+ years of client work to pursue a more creative, freedom-filled life. But just as she was stepping into that next chapter, a family health crisis changed everything.

What followed wasn’t the plan—but it led her somewhere more aligned, more joyful, and more her.

We talk about:

• Letting go of the version of life you thought you’d be living
  
  
• Navigating unexpected detours and emotional pivots
  
  
• Finding creativity and meaning in the “side quests”
  
  
• Redefining success in a season that looks different than expected
  
  

If you’ve ever felt like your timeline got disrupted—or like you’re trying to force something that no longer fits—this conversation is a gentle reminder that a better path might already be unfolding.
