Unscripted Pivots: Inspiring Stories from WTF [Women That Flourish]

Welcome to another wild ride on Unscripted Pivots, where WTF (Women That Flourish) moments meet real-life humor, heart, and a little IDGAF attitude.

In this episode, Danielle sits down with the queen of not giving a “f*ck,” Lori Altermann, whose unapologetic, hilarious takes on life have catapulted her into TikTok fame with fans who can’t get enough of her unfiltered truth.

They dive deep into Lori’s journey, navigating life’s unscripted pivots with humor and grace—or as much grace as someone with a full-blown IDGAF attitude can muster! From her dreams of being on *Saturday Night Live* to become a TikTok sensation, Lori shares how she’s taken life by the horns, all while making us laugh so hard we might need to invest in some Depends (you’ve been warned).

👑 What You’ll Love About This Episode:

- How Lori turned her ‘I don’t give a fagana’ energy into a movement that resonates with women, men, and even kids.
- The moment Lori realized life’s too short to care what anyone thinks—and how that freedom fuels her creativity.
- Danielle and Lori bonding over their signature F-words (WTF for *Women That Flourish* and IDGAF for, well… you know).
- A raw, real conversation about how humor was Lori's shield—and when she had to finally take it off.
- Hilarious menopause stories (itchy backs, anyone?), because if you can’t laugh through life’s changes, then WTF are you doing?

This episode is equal parts laugh-out-loud funny and deeply inspiring. Whether you’re curious about life after 50, wondering if you can pivot careers midstream, or just need a good belly laugh, Lori brings the IDGAF energy we all need.

What is Unscripted Pivots: Inspiring Stories from WTF [Women That Flourish]?

If you’re looking to find connectivity in the female experience, you’ve found the right podcast. Unscripted Pivots (UP) takes a deep dive into how women can masterfully chart their lives only to end up in the most unexpected places. "Life is what happens while we are busy making other plans" and the most unpredictable detours, our “WTF” experiences, can shape us in ways we never dreamed possible. My podcast invites women to redefine “WTF”, calling them “Women That Flourish” moments instead. I’m your host, Danielle Sprouls, aka "The WTF* Lady", and my mission is to bring you weekly interviews with inspiring stories of women empowerment, identity loss, entrepreneurship, leadership, mental health, and more. We’re here to celebrate a woman's adaptability, resilience, and perseverance. No matter our unexpected detours, we can always move UP.
