In reply to DG. Great points. Ideally we celebrate every step along the way and become our own friend.

I love the callout to celebrate your progress! I'm the first to celebrate others but realized last year that I was diminishing my own hard work by reaching goals and immediately setting the next without ever pausing to appreciate the moment. We deserve just as much kindness and appreciation as we extend so freely to others!

In reply to Mitzi. Hi Mitzi. I agree; so many of these changes are challenging. Your comment about knee wrinkles made my lough out loud... yep! Despite the challenges, it sounds like you have a great attitude. I love your reference to living out loud!! Very best wishes in the many adventures ahead. Susan

I’m identifying with so much from your various articles. Silver decisions about health, self talk, love and what is next. I tear up as I leave “young boutique shops behind (Altered State, Dry Goods, Franchico’s) and move in to “middle shops” (Chico’s, Spanx, Ann Taylor) as my body has shifted. Try to take the focus off outside – menopause weight gain and wrinkles at the top of my knees (WHAT!) and start the hard work and new adventure of really focusing on the Inside – mediation, better eating (power foods) and living outloud!
