Women over 60:Beneath the surface? A quiet rebellion. A fire. A whisper that says,
“There’s more — and I think it’s mine.”
The world thinks we are winding down — while we’re secretly winding up. Wrestling with the boldest question yet: “What if I haven’t even met the real me?”
It’s not just us “ordinary women” who wrestle with discovering who we really are later in life.
In a recent interview on CBS This Morning, Priscilla Presley said:
“It wasn’t that I didn’t love him. It was that I had to find me. Who was I? I was his wife. But who was I?”
That question — “But who was I?” — echoes through the bones of so many women.
Not because we were married to Elvis. (Though we wouldn’t have turned him down back in the day.)
But because we’ve lived entire decades carrying identities that were never fully ours.
Women of our generation — broadly speaking — were expected to be ornamental.
As I’ve often said: “I was raised to be the window dressing of a husband’s life.”
And honey, we wore those monikers like pros:
Wife. Mother. Caretaker. Employee. Peacemaker.
Sometimes with pride.
Sometimes with pain.
Sometimes with absolutely no damn choice.
But here we are — in this season of life — and the question is knocking louder than ever:
Who am I, really, now?
Not in a vision-board, bubble-bath, journal-it-out kind of way.
But in that soul-deep, staring-at-the-ceiling-at-2am way.
In the space between what was… and what could be.
This next part is for the women who feel the shift inside them —
who know they’re standing at a threshold,
who feel something stirring in their chest when they read these words,
and who are ready to take a braver step inward.
If that’s you, come closer.
Let’s talk about what rewiring really looks like — and what it unlocks.
