You ready to #shinebrightly?
Yeah, me too!
Go Thrift or Go Home
My favorite online thrifting source, ThredUp, had a big Earth Month sale including on Premium items. To say I took advantage would be an obscene understatement. Instead, I shall reframe it and say that I used it as an opportunity to demonstrate the quality that is available to secondhand shoppers at ridiculously low prices.
Yeah. Yeah… that’s the ticket.
On Target with DVF
I was excited that I was able to get a few pieces of the Diane Von Furstenberg for Target Collection so I made a Try-On Video. It was a new thing for me, but I had fun so, I’ll probably do it again.
Keep Standing Tall
No one can suggest I have been shy about my age as of late. In fact, it has been my lead. That said, getting older is not a zero-sum game (sorry I have been bingeing Billions). There are costs and one of them is bone health. Being a small-framed caucasian, I am especially aware that it is essential for me to remember what is going on inside, as well as outside as the calendars flip in my life.
When Hobbies Go Bucket List
While relaxing hobbies can be great for mental health, invigorating ones can ‘do you the power of good’ too. Indeed, below I’m sharing a comprehensive list of some of the most exciting and adventurous hobbies out there. They offer a wide range of benefits from increased fitness, better mental health, community and travel. They also look and sound a lot like my bucket list.
Stable? At Least, On my Feet
If there is one thing that's absolutely essential to our health and longevity as we age, it's physical stability. We often refer to it as “balance”, and not in that work/life way. Here we’re talking about maintaining a good core to prevent falls or injuries that can have consequences, not just in later life, but now. So, what are the best ways to ensure that stability?
Should I Stand for This?
Recently, the last one has moved beyond the living room into the office. Standing desks have quickly become the newest buzzwords in office ergonomics; so let’s take a stand (pardon the pun) on this issue and examine if these towering worktops truly live up to their hype or not.
Finding Relief from Chronic Pain
My readers know I have been struggling with chronic pain for some time now. I’m trying to learn more about how to options, especially holistic to address that. I thought I would share some of what I’m learning.
I’ve Unleashed My Wanderlust: Discovering Solo Travel
So, here’s a confession. I have never traveled alone. But many of my friends have and they tell me how empowering it is. Now that I am solidly in the sixth decade of life I am ready to venture into this realm of travel - the exhilarating world of solo travel. So I thought I would take you with me on a deep dive into the kind of soul-stirring, solo vacations that every globetrotter (or wannabe) should be brave enough to embrace at least once.
Be Fabulous
You’re here to shine and shinebrightly . Being fabulous doesn’t mean being perfect, it means being your best self in that moment. So, rethink your answer. You may be more fabulous than you think!
Gone in 60 Seconds
Miles may have separated us. Years when long distance was not free (MCI Friends & Family, anyone) may have limited how often we talked, but NEVER was the friendship in question.
