Welcome back to over 50 and flourishing. Today we are diving into the world of comedy, storytelling and the beautiful chaos of life.

My guest is Ellen Scrimetti, a woman who proves it is never too late to follow your dreams.

Ellen got her start in comedy after training at the iconic second city, home to some of the greatest comedians of all time.

Just as she was breaking into the comedy

club circuit, well, the world hit pause with the 2020 COVID shutdown. But Ellen, she did not

let that stop her. As she says, dreams do not have deadlines. So fast forward to 2022, her hilarious

and relatable Instagram posts have gone viral, racking up millions of views and landing her on the radar

of major tour companies.

Today, Ellen joins us to talk about her new book,

Hey Jesus, it's me, where she unpacked themes

like advanced maternal age, aging with grace

and growing up as a Southern woman.

Get ready for a heartfelt, funny,

an honest conversation that will leave you inspired to embrace every chapter of your story.

Tis the season for gift giving. The holiday season is here, and I personally love one-stop shopping, where you can find everything,

quality and wonderful, in one place. That one place would be Jenny Kane. They make it effortless

to check everybody off your list, yourself included, by the way. Right now I'm wearing one of my

favorite Jenny Kane sweaters. They last me from season to season, the cashmere knits, their essential outerwear, even homeware pieces like their obsession-worthy candles.

There is no better place to get into the seasonal spirit than Jenny Kane.

Gift yourself and your loved ones to the best gift of all, Jenny Kane.
