My 40+ life

Welcome to my 40+ life
Hello and welcome! For me, life really did begin at 40. This has been the decade where I’ve learned the most about myself and been brave enough to become the person I was always meant to be. Like most women in their 40s, I've been on quite a journey, and have always written about my experiences as a way of processing them.

There's something very healing and powerful about sharing our stories. For years, I was the one reading blogs for comfort, guidance and support. Helping someone by sharing mine was always my dream and your comments and messages have brought me huge joy. Please subscribe by clicking at the bottom of any of my blogs so that you don't miss anything, and follow me on social media to see all my content - all links below :) .

Thank you!

As women, we shrink ourselves to fit into little boxes that we create without even realising it.

A good friend of mine gave me a very polite telling off when I saw her for the first time in ages last week. We were talking about the most sensitive of subjects: money. I was saying that the snowballing cost of living crisis and the fact that our house and lifestyle stands and falls on one wage ...
