LIVE YOUR LIFE ON YOUR TERMS
I can’t say those words enough – especially to midlife women.
I have encountered far too many people in my coaching career living their lives according to someone else’s expectations. Or worse, living their lives to mirror someone else’s life. Copycat madness.
As the saying goes, “Be yourself; everybody else is taken!”
We live in a world filled with judgment, filled with those who believe that it’s their right to define and dictate how everybody else should live, act, etc., and on that, I call B.S.
As I live and explore this Second Act of Life that I’ve been blessed with, I call it Primetime Living; I intend to live it on my terms.
I am Aging Gracefully and Happily according to my rules.
And to all of my Midlife Women, Magnificent Mamas coming along with me, or those proactively preparing for this amazing ride, please remember to do the same.

- Exactly who will volunteer to die for you? So why should you allow someone to determine how you live? And if you’re the one making the judgements-STOP IT.
We only get one shot at this thing called life, as far as I know, so make sure you are living it to the fullest.
Here’s your chance to silence the naysayers…
Name one thing that you wish other people would mind their business and stay in their lane about when it comes to how you (or others) live their lives. Then follow that statement with – NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!
