Welcome back to Just Getting Good, our new series where Chelsea sits down with women over 50 to talk about life, love, money, aging, and everything in between.
For our 7th episode, Chelsea sat down with 60-year-old life coach, author, former music industry exec, and all around diva, Sophia Chang. They discussed the fertility industry, motherhood & partnership, the importance of decentering men, Sophia's career in the hip hop industry, reflecting on the decisions you make, and so much more! We absolutely loved this conversation with Sophia, and know you will, too!

For years, “wokeness” felt culturally dominant — from rainbow capitalism to progressive celebrity branding — but something has clearly shifted. In this video, Chelsea digs into when (and why) being progressive stopped being good business, how economic precarity reshaped politics, and whether social justice can survive inside capitalism at all. From corporate Pride to Gen Z’s rightward drift, this is an honest look at who benefited from “woke” culture, who paid the price, and what a materially grounded progressivism would actually require now.
