Hi all! There are so many wonderful midlife women and medical professionals here on Instagram sharing their advice, offering support and making us feel part of a club – hot sweats and mood swings might be part of the membership – but isn’t it great to know we are not alone?
Happy Easter weekend everyone - hope you’re enjoying the beautiful weather! 😎
Morning! Today I’m posing a question: WHO ARE YOU NOW? Gosh. That’s a humdinger isn’t it? No longer a child, a young adult or even ‘just an adult’ – for me, I’m more of a midlifer on the cusp (at nearly 55) of tipping over to the ‘geriatric patient’ title that the medical professional so thoughtfully give to 60-year-olds, - despite the fact that most 60-year-olds I know have more verve in their little fingers than some young ‘uns.
This is the happy, sweaty face of a woman (me!) who had a lot on her plate this morning - and I’m not talking about breakfast.
Oh what a week it’s been! I’ve been doing my favourite thing and have been busy with words - working on content for a new client @illumin8beauty - I’ll be telling you more about this fab salon and their gorgeous treatments because I know a lot of my lovely midlife followers enjoy a bit of beauty news 💅🏽 💆‍♀️
When I sit down to work on my novel (Say what? Yep, you read it right – pop to my last post if you need an update) it feels like such a humongous task that I need to keep reminding myself of the quote -
