Lacie Couzin | Reinvention, Boundaries, Mentorship & the Power of Pause | Ep. 008

Clear the Shoulds: Lacie Couzin on Choosing Your Own Story What happens when you stop letting other people write your story? In episode 008 of The Audacity to Age, Kristie talks with Lacie Couzin about mentorship, reinvention, leadership, boundaries, solo travel, and the power of a pause. Lacie reflects on a career that has included teaching, nursing, higher education, leadership, and now nurse coaching. She shares how her 20s taught her to question the life she was "supposed" to want, how her 30s opened the door to reinvention and adventure, and how her 40s helped her step into leadership and mentorship with intention. Together, Kristie and Lacie talk about releasing other people's shoulds, becoming a novice again, setting boundaries without losing kindness, raising an independent son, and understanding that impact comes from the experiences we create, not only the titles we hold. This is a grounded, thoughtful conversation about clarity, service, and the courage to keep becoming. https://kristiecrenshaw.substack.com/...
