Hello Everyone,

“I stand with women in their 50s, 60s, and beyond — women ready to find their voice, reclaim their worth, and step into their next chapter with courage and clarity.”

Quote: "The land was ours before we were the land”

Robert Frost

I’ve always loved that line. It reminds me that the seasons don’t belong to us — we belong to them. Autumn, especially, has a way of claiming us. It nudges us to slow down, to listen, to notice the world shifting in quiet ways.

At this stage of life, I think we feel that belonging differently — not in a rush to get somewhere, but in a willingness to be here.”

Welcome Back Greeting

“Welcome back, beautiful friends 🌿

I’m so glad you’re here with me for Episode 101 of Be Your Empowered Self. Today, we’re talking about warmth, gratitude, and how to hold onto the glow of summer, just a little bit longer and in giving Thanks just a little bit longer.”

So whatever you’re doing — walking, driving, making tea — take me along with you. Plug in those earbuds, turn it up… and let’s talk. 🌿

Scientific Insight

“Psychologists call these small rituals anchoring practices. Even brief gratitude reflections have been shown to increase positive emotions and lower cort-i-sol, the stress hormone.

Warm lighting and familiar scents can activate your parasympathetic nervous system — your body’s natural calming response.

These little cues tell your brain, I’m safe. I’m here. There is still good in this moment.”

Thank you for listening 💙
