About Christina Metcalf

Hi, I’m Christina—speaker, author, virtual bestie, occasional sparkly shoe wearer, and full-time dream chaser.

Have you ever caught yourself mid-laundry, mid-meeting, or mid-anything and thought, “Wait… is this really it?“?

Then you’re in the right place.


I know what it’s like to wake up and realize the life you built—while full of good intentions and other people’s expectations—doesn’t exactly light you up anymore.

I spent years putting dreams on the back burner, waiting for the “right” time (spoiler: it never shows up and there’s no golden ticket to it). I heard everyone else’s needs louder than my own.

Now? I help women over 40 stop waiting for permission and start unapologetically chasing the life they actually want.

Whether I’m speaking on stage, writing books like The Glinda Principle, or sending out daily doses of sparkle, my mission is simple: to help you find the magic you forgot you had (and maybe laugh a little while doing it).

I believe in bold dreams, stretchy pants, messy pivots, and saying YES to yourself even when it scares the sparkle out of you.

And if you need a virtual bestie who’s been there, felt that, and isn’t afraid to lovingly call you out when you’re playing small—I’m your girl.

The second act of your life is here. Let’s make it the best flippin’ one yet.

If We Were Friends IRL…

(that’s “in real life” if you’re as old as me)

I’d remind you that you already have the power—you just forgot where you put it.

I’d tell you that chasing your dream isn’t selfish—it’s sacred.

I’d probably bring snacks. (Because everything’s better with snacks.)

I’d remind you that stretchy pants are a lifestyle, not a phase.

I’d hype you up when you’re scared to hit “go” on your next big move.

And when you forgot how amazing you are, I’d loan you some of my sparkle until you remembered.

Basically, if you’re ready for real talk, big dreams, and the kind of support that feels like confetti in your inbox—you’re home.
