What if the life you really want begins after the age you were told you should have everything figured out?
In this episode of For Mannerless Women, Adelle sits down with Sally Sawe, Co-Founder and COO of The Partnership Agency, for a beautiful conversation about ageing, starting again and giving yourself permission to build a life that is entirely your own. Approaching 40, Sally walked away from a long-term relationship and began questioning the definition of a “full life” she had inherited. Did it have to include marriage? Children? Could she define it differently for herself?
Then at 53, after 20 years at WPP Scangroup, Sally made another huge pivot: she co-founded her own advertising agency. What began with five people working from a garden has since grown to a team of more than 100.
In this conversation, we talk about:
• Starting again at any age
• Why ageing can bring more confidence, not less
• Being happily single and child-free
• Defining a full life outside marriage and motherhood
• Leaving relationships that no longer serve you
• Learning to enjoy your own company
• Building self-trust and listening to your inner voice
• Starting a business in your 50s
• Beginning again after 20 years in one career
• Letting go of ego when you have to start small
• Why experience becomes an advantage as you age
• Giving yourself permission instead of waiting for it from others
Sally’s Mannerless Message is simple: “Be as ungovernable as you can be.”Give yourself permission to change your mind, begin again and live your life fully.
