Midlife is a powerful threshold—an opportunity to fully embrace who you are and reflect that authenticity in what you wear and how you care for your skin. Taking a cue from the ever-enchanting French approach, let this season be about effortless elegance, timeless pieces, and an unshakable confidence that radiates from within.
1. Embrace Timeless Silhouettes French women are known for curating a wardrobe of high-quality essentials: a perfectly tailored blazer, a flattering pair of trousers, and a crisp white shirt. Instead of chasing the latest trend, focus on pieces that effortlessly blend into your lifestyle. By investing in well-made, versatile garments, you’ll cultivate a style that feels both sophisticated and distinctly your own.

As the days grow longer and flowers begin to bloom, spring offers the perfect backdrop for refreshing your mind and body. After the darker, colder months, it’s time to let go of any lingering heaviness—physically and emotionally—and embrace the natural sense of renewal that this season brings.
Even small, consistent actions can create a profound ripple effect on your overall well-being. Begin by prioritizing gentle movement: try morning stretches or a peaceful walk outdoors. These simple practices help balance hormones, improve circulation, and bring clarity to the mind—an especially welcome benefit if you’re navigating the shifts of perimenopause or menopause. Life in midlife can feel like an exhilarating journey—yet it’s often accompanied by bouts of self-doubt and a persistent inner critic that questions our worth. This delicate transition holds incredible potential: it’s a period of reinvention, rediscovery, and reclaiming your innate power. As a Feminine Power Coach who’s walked this path and guided many women through it, I’ve seen firsthand how unshakable confidence can be cultivated by applying a few simple, transformative techniques. Here’s how to start:
As we step into February, there is a distinct shift in the air—a gentle yet undeniable invitation to slow down, to soften, and to return to what truly nourishes us. While January often carries the weight of resolutions, expectations, and the rush of new beginnings, February whispers something different. It is a month of renewal, a moment to embrace beauty, and an opportunity to cultivate love in all its forms.In the ever-evolving realm of health and wellness, fasting has emerged as a powerful method not only for weight loss but also for enhancing overall vitality. For those who have struggled with traditional diets and are seeking a more effective approach, fasting offers a transformative opportunity to align with your body's natural rhythms and achieve sustainable results.
Unveiling the Art of Living: Insights Inspired by French Women's Elegance, Beauty, and Bliss6/9/2024 Hello Beautiful Soul!
Oh my gosh! I can't believe I'm talking about this... the truth is I didn't see this coming... if you had told me a year ago that I was going to be talking about menopause, I would not have believed you!
Yet, here I am, yearning to have a full on dialogue with you about menopause... everything about it. I've had SO many awe-inspiring conversations about midlife and menopause in the last eight months, and I really had no idea where I was going to land. In true Feminine Power fashion, I followed one lead after another, one woman after another, one conversation after another, one podcast after another, one article after another... until a much bigger picture emerged. What I discovered about the deep transformation in the female brain and body is extraordinary! I've heard from you how you deeply desire to experience yourself. I've researched hormones, the brain, and different cultures to understand the many facets that affect and influence a woman's experience, including culture and society, beliefs, expectations and identities around this. Let me first say that we are RICH beyond measure at this stage of life, and if you only understood just how RICH, you would be in awe of your own greatness. Our bodies go through tremendous shifts which for some women can cause symptoms that one can barely tolerate. As a lifetime holistic healthy woman who took great care of herself, her body, her emotions, and who loved movement, I had indeed expected to breeze through menopause. But the chasm between my expectations and my experience was as wide as the ocean and as turbulent as the waves in a storm. Oh my goodness!
On Zoom with my coach I am working on identifying my inner glass ceiling... those invisible inner barriers that keep you stuck in an area of life that really matters to you. And specifically I was working on where I get stopped or stuck in my business. What happens over and over again that I can't see? This is the stuff that's beyond mindset. I share with her a story of an event that took place about 15 years ago, in which I find myself unable to identify that I had a pattern of needing help when feeling insecure or uncertain... and again this was only present in a particular area of my life. In this moment on our coaching call, she exclaims, "Of course you need help! Brilliant women like us need help!" Chances are you’ve been held back from unleashing your greatest power and potential because the outside world rarely, if ever, reflects back to you your unique perspectives. So, you may not realize that your exceptional ways of seeing the world are actually deeply needed for your highest wellbeing as well as the highest wellbeing of all.
If you're anything like me, you have too often deferred to what other people tell you or think or advise, rather than what you deeply know. You may have become overly dependent on external reference points, simply because you don't fully trust yourself, or you place a lot of weight of what others think. So, you override what you deeply know within. How might this play out in your life, in your work, in your relationships? Hello Lovely,
Where in your world, is the woman behind the plan? A few years ago, I spoke with a wonderful woman who desperately wanted coaching. She wanted to grow personally and increase her confidence. And her awareness. Her words. When we examined having a plan in place she already had the plan. What she really needed was the woman behind the plan. Again, her words. Thus, I'm asking you as well. Are you the woman missing behind the plan? |
