Find out moreWe’re living longer and healthier -- which means at some point we’re going to ask ourselves, “Now what?” Lesley Jane Seymour interviews inspirational leaders of all industries to get reinvention tips and strategies that apply to real life. What they're saying about the Reinvent Yourself: " love the new Reinvent Yourself. There's such an interesting range of speakers and inspiring stories that I'm always eagerly awaiting the next episode!"
Every night her mother put her to bed, telling her she could be anything she wanted as long as she was willing to work hard for it. That support created a girl who knew how to stand up and speak for herself – even in grammar school when she was put into the wrong (remedial) reading group; speaking up got her moved. So when the former Stanford grad, Miss America, and CBS and Fox anchor found herself suing her boss for sexual harassment, it was that “ability to know I worked very hard that carried me through it.” Listen to CoveyClub founder Lesley Jane Seymour’s intimate discussion with the woman who gave others the guts to launch a thousand #MeToo lawsuits. Carlson explains why making the leap over 50 made it even harder to reinvent and offers solutions beginning with the observation that “women need to stop being so damn nice.”
Episode Notes:

Follower her leadership tour and find her on Facebook and Twitter and Instagram.
Carlson also suggests “developing a passion for reading about others who have reinvented.” Her personal reading list includes:
• Daughter of Destiny: An Autobiography by Benazir BZhutto
• Can’t Is Not An Option: My American Story by Nikki Haley
• Becoming by Michelle Obama
And her own two books:
