I think we have all felt this at the start of a new year: “I feel behind. Everyone else seems to know what they’re doing, and I don’t.” And I understand that feeling well from my own experience. When a new year begins, there’s a quiet pressure in the air. New goals, plans and expectations. We’re told this is the moment to reset our lives, to finally get everything together. But for many women in midlife, that message doesn’t feel motivating. It feels heavy. If the idea of a “

I hear this so often from women: “I’m overwhelmed, exhausted, and I don’t know how to slow down.” And I understand that feeling deeply. When life feels heavy, we’re often told that self-care  is the answer. But somehow, that word has come to mean more effort, more planning, and more pressure. Spa days. Long routines. Big changes that feel unrealistic in the middle of real life. If that’s how self-care feels to you, I want you to know something right away, you’re not doing it

One of the greatest lessons I’ve learned on my minimalist journey is this: simple pleasures don’t have to cost much, and often, the cheaper they are, the richer you feel. Minimalism, at its heart, is about removing what isn’t necessary so that the simple becomes exquisite. It shows up in art, music, architecture, and for me… it shows up in everyday living. When I apply this idea to my well-being, everything becomes lighter. I live richly without spending much. I feel satisfie

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized that staying healthy  isn’t about chasing the latest diet trend, it’s about building a lifestyle that feels peaceful, sustainable, and nourishing. For me, wellness isn’t just about what I eat; it’s about how I live. I’ve found that simple, whole foods, mindful eating, and intermittent fasting have made an incredible difference in my energy, sleep, and overall well-being. I don’t see this as a “plan” or a “program.” It’s just how I live, a h

If you’ve been feeling stretched thin lately — always rushing, always trying to hold everything together — I see you. You wake up thinking about the to-do list, push yourself through the day, and fall into bed at night wondering why you still feel behind. You’re constantly moving, constantly doing, yet somehow never really resting. I’ve been there too. That place where life looks full on the outside but feels empty inside. It’s exhausting, isn’t it? That’s why today, I want t

Three years ago, at 51, I made a decision that shocked everyone — including myself. I walked away from the life I had carefully built for more than three decades. If you’ve ever felt trapped by circumstances, too afraid to make a change, or convinced that you’re “too old” to start over, I hope my story reminds you that it’s never too late to dream again. The Life I Built vs. The Life I Wanted For 32 years, I lived what looked like a perfectly good life. I became a mom at 19 a
