[Kimothy Joy: what’s coming up]: Drawing inspiration from the stories of women who were “not afraid to fail out loud” + dreaming up a new chapter Ep 1127

Finding the Throughline with Kate Hanley

By the end of this final installment of my interview with Kimothy Joy, author of “Extraordinary Wing Women: True Stories of Life-Altering, World-Changing Sisterhood,” “Focus Pocus: A 90-Day Guided Journal,” and “That's What She Said: Wise Words from Influential Women,” my cheeks were hurting from smiling. So many exciting ideas in here!

We talked about:

- Why Kimothy is absorbing everything she can about AI right now, and the very cool ideas about how we might be able to use it and why women and moms need to be involved in its development (this part of our conversation gave me the good kind of goosebumps and I am really resistant to the idea of AI)

- Letting the example of the women Kimothy writes about (women like Maya Angelou and Coco Chanel) inspire her to be open to reinventing herself

- The podcast that’s inspiring her right now (aside from this one, naturally)

- Prepping for her 50s, 60s, and 70s even though she’s only (about to be) 40

- Sensing that you are in a ‘completion phase’ and that a whole new iteration is headed your way

- The show she can’t stop thinking about

- Why she puts butter in her morning cup of coffee

- The band she just say at Red Rocks whose songs she belts out when she needs a lift

- How she’s planning to celebrate her 40th birthday in September
