  • Rebecca talks to Loraine Midda MBE
    2023/04/27

    Rebecca speaks to Loraine Midda MBE about how the key to her fulfilling encore is retaining the flexibility that sustained her throughout her career to date. Loraine explains there is a well-known Yiddish saying: "We plan, God laughs". Being agile has been a watchword in an unplanned career. Spending almost 20 years in fashion retail, and then switching to a 30-year career in digital(latterly as Head of Member Services, Parliamentary Digital Services for the House of Lords) was definitely not something in her plan. Along the way, family, life, and work led to many stresses which in turn led to a jopurney in Mindfulness, coaching and mentoring. In this next iteration of life for Loraine it is about giving back. Working with charities, non-profits and concentrating on Trustee and NED roles in addition to introducing Mindfulness in order to bring more compassion into the world. Loraine can be contacted at LoraineMidda@outlook.com or on Instagram @engagingmindfulness.

    This month we're going for a slightly different approach to our podcast. To wrap up 2022 and the year in which we launched From work Life to new life - rewriting the rules of retirement for smart professionals, Mike and I thought we would share a few reflections on how our own fulfilling encores have evolved over the past year and what's in store for 2023.  

    We also have a shameless ask! We would be very grateful to those of you who have appreciated and found our book From work life to new life - rewriting the rules of retirement for smart professionals useful, please could you complete an Amazon and/or Goodreads review? 

    Also, if you are enjoying the From work life to new life podcast, would you please consider reviewing this too, on whichever platform you are listening to it on?  

    We hope that you enjoy listening and wish you a wonderful festive season!
