Empower Over 50
Welcome to Empower Over 50 — the new evolution of The English Musical Nomad podcast.
As careers shift, industries evolve, and life after 50 becomes less about winding down and more about redefining, this podcast is here to meet you at the edge of reinvention. Hosted by Maxwell Farnon, Empower Over 50 delivers honest insights, strategic advice, and bold conversations about navigating work, purpose, and personal growth later in life.
If you’re over 50 and wondering how to stay relevant in an AI-driven world, find meaningful work, or build something new from your experience — this is your space. No fluff. No false promises. Just straight talk about what it really takes to thrive in the second half of life.
You’ll hear personal reflections, listener Q&As, and expanded audio versions of the most impactful YouTube videos from the Empower Over 50 channel.
Formerly The English Musical Nomad, this podcast has evolved — just like its audience. We’re still telling stories. But now we’re telling the ones that matter most: yours.
