This post is longer than usual—I’ll admit it.
But I love writing these missives.
It brings me so much joy to share what I’ve learned, and to offer encouragement, truth, and practical wisdom to help my fellow women step into a brighter, bolder, more bountiful life—especially in this powerful stage we’re in now.
A 3-Step Commitment to Reignite Your Life After 60
Women over 60: It’s YOUR turn. And now is the time to get’er done.
You’re not going to get struck by lightning just because you downloaded a PDF from me. You will not experience some kind of awakening- overnight.
But you might get goosebumps.
You might feel something stir.
You might even cry.
What you will not get is a magic wand.
Because the kind of change you’re craving—real change—the kind that opens your energy, reignites your soul, and reminds you who the hell you are?
That doesn’t come from one guide.
It comes from a decision.
This time, I’m not going back to sleep.
People ask me all the time what I do.
I’ve never called myself a coach, and I don’t plan to.
I don’t hand out homework. I don’t diagnose your past. I don’t give you gold stars for personal growth.
I tell the truth.
I write from my lived experience as a woman in her late 60s who had to dig herself out of the fog— mentally, spiritually, emotionally and fiscally.
and I help other women do the same.
One breath, one guide, one choice at a time.
That’s why I’m smiling in this picture. Yes, the bow is ridiculous. I love it.
But what I love more is that I am the living embodiment of the very reinvention I write about.
Seven months ago, I was in a very different place.
Since then, I’ve:
Created and sold more than a dozen soulful PDF guides- and art prints of my work.
Launched multiple series to help women stop apologizing and start creating again
Hosted intimate Sunday Zooms with paid members (and we’re just getting started)
Watched complete strangers become soul companions
And reinvented myself so many times, I lost count
But none of that happened overnight.
It happened because I showed up every damn day for my own life.
I had a conversation the other night with a woman who reminded me exactly why I do this work.
She told me she’s not trying to reclaim some dream from 30 years ago.
She’s not looking to go back.
She wants to discover what she doesn’t even know is in her yet.
That, my friend, is the sweet spot of my work.
I don’t help you chase dreams that died.
I help you create space for the ones that haven’t even been born yet.
And because my 70th birthday is coming up (yes it is—September 11), I’m doing something fun—but with purpose:
I’m bundling 7 of my best guides for $7.
I’m not going to list them here just yet.
I want you to feel that spark of curiosity.
That tug that says: Something in there might be for me.
And you know what?
It is.
Stay tuned.
Want to see what this looks like in real life?
Here’s a 3-minute video of me talking about a pink motorcycle, a bow, and the power of choosing yourself—out loud.https://youtube.com/shorts/IuQ4q2xNOi4?si=eEdmF3o-oaRs4JL3
This Isn’t Subtle (And That’s the Point)
You’re not here for fluff.
You didn’t find your way to me because you wanted to dabble in reinvention or dip a toe in transformation.
You’re here because something inside you is DONE waiting.
So let me tell you straight:
This work?
This reclamation of your voice, your energy, your time, your dreams?
It is not for the faint of heart.
It’s for the woman who’s tired of the fog.
Tired of pretending she doesn’t care.
Tired of overfunctioning for everyone else while quietly starving for her own life.
And no—one guide will not change everything overnight.
But one decision can.
If you’re ready—truly ready—to discover what you don’t yet know about yourself...
To reclaim the dream you buried under decades of service...
To simply feel alive again—
Start here:
🔹 Step One: Stop Looking Back
Stop your obsession with yesterday.
Stop trying to figure out where you took a wrong turn or why someone didn’t choose you.
You do not need to solve the past to start a new chapter.
Let the photo albums on your bookshelf or your phone do their job.
Let the memory books live on your desktop.
But for the love of your life—don’t live there in your mind.
The woman you used to be doesn’t need you right now.
The woman you are becoming does.
🔹 Step Two: Tell the Truth (to Yourself First)
Say it out loud.
Whisper it if you must.
“I want more.”
“I don’t want to live like this anymore.”
“I’m ready for something new—even if I don’t know what it is yet.”
You don’t have to pretend you’re fine.
You don’t have to pretend you’re fearless.
You just have to get honest.
Your truth is not shameful.
It’s sacred.
And it’s your starting point.
🔹 Step Three: Do One Aligned Thing (Today)
Not next week.
Not after you finish decluttering the attic.
Not after the next full moon or retrograde or round of grandkid duty.
Today.
Pick one small thing that moves the needle:
Write a page
Walk a block
Hang the art
Book the massage
Buy the $5 download that reminds you how powerful you are
Put on the lipstick that makes you feel like a velvet storm
Don’t wait for anyone else to approve it.
You are the permission slip.
This is how you change your life.
Not by reading one more book.
Not by fixing yourself.
But by showing up for yourself consistently.
With honesty.
With action.
With tenderness and grit—and yes, maybe even a hot pink headwrap and red glasses if that’s your thing.
(Ask me how I know.)
So if you’ve been looking for a sign?
This is it.
This is the season where you stop dabbling and start deciding.
Stop circling and start claiming.
Stop disappearing and start living like you mean it.
Because here’s the real secret:
The joy isn’t in reclaiming what you lost.
It’s in discovering what’s always been waiting inside you.
Want to take this deeper?
I’ve got tools, prompts, and a soul-led manual waiting for you.
But nothing works until you do.
Choose yourself.
Out loud.
On purpose.
Today.
