Kendra Lendsey: Midlife Flyness | Live Well, Sister!

A conversation with Kendra Lendsey about MIDLIFE FLYNESS. Kendra Lendsey, known and loved by many as "Yo Fly Aunty," is redefining what it means for Black women to age boldly, visibly, and unapologetically. As the visionary founder of Midlife Flyness®, Kendra has created more than a brand -- she’s building a cultural movement that challenges outdated narratives around aging and makes space for Black women to see themselves reflected as vibrant, relevant, desirable, evolving, and gloriously fly at every stage of life. Through her dynamic digital presence, speaking engagements, media appearances, and her Midlife Flyness podcast, she continues to spark honest, joyful, and necessary conversations about what it means to grow older on our own terms. She is also the author of Midlife Flyness: Writing Your Own First Class Ticket to Aging Well, a witty, affirming, no-holds-barred invitation to ditch society’s tired scripts about aging and embrace the power, wisdom, humor, and freedom that come with every new chapter. With equal parts style, substance, and straight-talk wisdom, Kendra reminds us that aging isn’t about fading into the background; it’s about stepping even more fully into yourself. What some call a midlife crisis, Kendra calls a first-class upgrade.
