This week, Melissa Davey joins us to share her remarkable journey of transformation from a corporate executive to an award-winning filmmaker, all beginning at the age of 65. Her story is an inspiring testament to resilience and the power of pursuing one's passion, regardless of age.

Growing up with frequent relocations, Melissa developed adaptability and resilience, traits that would later fuel her bold leap into filmmaking. Despite a lifelong love for film, she initially followed a more traditional career path in nonprofit work and legal services. Discover how a serendipitous moment behind the camera in Washington, D.C. inspired her to leave her corporate career behind and chase her dream of storytelling.

Melissa's debut film, "Beyond 60," highlights the often-overlooked stories of ordinary women over 60, proving that compelling narratives exist beyond celebrity life. Her journey underscores the importance of surrounding yourself with encouraging people while navigating new directions in life.

From leveraging her team-building skills to overcome technical gaps to winning awards at film festivals, Melissa's story is one of patience, perseverance, and triumph. Listen as she discusses her mission to empower women through film as she shares insights on living a life full of purpose and passion. Stay tuned for details on her available films and how you can connect for further updates on her inspiring adventures.
