My 40+ life

Welcome to my 40+ life
Do you know what? 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. Last year I decided to be brave, take the plunge and launch this website.

There's something very healing and powerful about sharing our experiences. For years, I was the one reading blogs for comfort, guidance and support. Helping someone by sharing my story 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 my other musings - all links below :) .

Thank you!

I've been wondering whether to share this. Mainly because it makes me extremely vulnerable, but also because it kind of flies in the face of alot of the stuff I've been writing about; being happy and strong as a single woman, loving my own company etc... You see, overall, I haven't really...
Running rebound

On Tuesday night I missed interval training to go to the pub for the first time in forever. Perhaps I should have felt excited, but I didn't. I got into a conversation with a colleague who'd just hired a personal trainer and told her about the difference regular, structured running was making to...
