What happens when you “age out” of your job? Especially wondering about female creatives. Am I going to be able to get jobs when I’m 50? And if not, what do people do when this happens? Is there another industry that’s common to transition to?

Any advice much appreciated! Thanks

Hi all, wanted to share a couple things that have been real blessings to me and boosters to my faith lately in case they are helpful for anyone else: 1) CBSM - it’s a 4-year course that takes you though the whole Bible. Im in year 2 and love it. 2) Pints with Aquinas podcast. He has both long form/interview podcasts and also very short Bible study podcasts where he analyzes a verse or two and provides Aquinas’ view on it. If you have things that’ve helped your faith lately, I’d love to hear ‘em!
