Your Value Doesn’t Expire: Career Reinvention Over 40 with Loren Greiff | 344

This Is Woman's Work with Nicole Kalil

What happens when decades of experience get labeled as “overqualified”? When the wisdom, grit, and perspective you’ve earned suddenly turn into workplace liabilities? Loren Greiff knows this story all too well — and she’s rewriting it.

After 30 years in corporate leadership, Loren was told she was “too real” and put on a performance improvement plan. Instead of shrinking, she built a movement: helping women over 40 reclaim their careers, disrupt ageist hiring practices, and lead with relevance, purpose, and unapologetic value.

We dig into:

• What “overqualified” really means (spoiler: it’s fear-based nonsense)

• How to frame your experience as future-focused instead of a professional obituary

• Why women are launching businesses, shifting careers, and embracing bolder purpose in their 40s, 50s, and 60s

• How to overcome the “too expensive” or “not tech savvy” labels

• Tactical strategies to thrive in today’s hidden job market

If you’ve ever been told you’re too much or felt sidelined by ageism, this episode will remind you: your value doesn’t expire, your merit doesn’t have a shelf life, and your best work may still be ahead of you.
