Inspirational poet and author Betsy H. Lambert will discuss her poetry collection, The Winding Path: A Poetic Journey, during a featured live interview on The Chris Voss Show. The 84-page work, published in August 2025, explores themes of aging, acceptance, and renewal with spiritual depth and emotional clarity. Lambert describes the collection as a refreshing, light-hearted poetic journey that examines the joys and challenges of aging, moving through themes of gratitude, grief, identity, and inner strength.
The book pairs spiritual reflection with lived experience, particularly for readers navigating transition, reinvention, and the later seasons of self-discovery. This collection is my awakening to acceptance of my seasoned self and a hopeful look toward what comes next, Lambert said. The Winding Path is especially meaningful for readers navigating grief, reinvention, or transition, women entering a new season of life, faith-rooted audiences seeking spiritual encouragement, and legacy-minded families and gift-givers. It also makes a thoughtful gift for mothers, grandmothers, retirees, and loved ones who appreciate poetry grounded in lived experience.
Lambert's work carries a deeply personal foundation shaped by generational history. The book is dedicated to her mother, Ann Russ Holaday, a Women Airforce Service Pilots veteran who ferried bombers across the country for the U.S. Army Air Forces. Holaday later became an artist and master woodcarver, leaving an enduring creative influence that continues to echo through her family. Lambert is a published poet whose work has been recognized in literary circles and faith communities. She is a contributor to Women Living on Purpose, a 2021 Amazon International Best Seller, and her poetry has been selected for publication in multiple anthologies, including the 2023 and 2024 Bards North Carolina Poetry Anthologies and the 2025 Eastern Sea Bards Anthology.
She continues to write sermon-based verse and additional poetry rooted in spiritual reflection, lived wisdom, and present-day themes. The featured interview on The Chris Voss Show will air live via StreamYard, and the episode will be available on major podcast platforms following the broadcast. Interview angles may include aging with clarity, gratitude, and purpose, poetry as a tool for reflection and emotional healing, and legacy, reinvention, and the courage to begin again. The book is available now on Amazon in paperback, with official updates available on the book's Facebook page.
