50 and Fabulous: Welcoming My Second Season of Life
Today, I turn 50.

And instead of shrinking from the number, I am fully — joyfully — stepping into it.

This is the beginning of my second season, a season where I am old enough to know better, still young enough to say yes to magic, and finally wise enough to live life on my own terms. Turning 50 feels like the unlocking of a new chapter, one I’ve spent years preparing for through healing, growth, and deep spiritual awakening.
Most of all, this milestone feels like a celebration of coming home to myself.

A Season of Full Spiritual Expression

For years, I tiptoed around my spiritual gifts. I diluted them, softened them, made them more digestible for others.
But this new season?
She’s not apologizing for her magic.
I embrace my spirituality completely — my intuition, my manifestation practice, my deep connection to energy, the moon, and the truth of who I am.
I am honoring my gifts not only for myself, but for the people I am here to serve. My work in manifestation, mindset, and intuitive development — especially for those with aphantasia — is not just my calling. It is my contribution to the world.

A Season of Boundaries and Self-Respect

One of the great blessings of fifty is clarity.
I now understand that boundaries are not walls — they are bridges back to myself.
They allow me to show up with integrity, to protect my energy, and to welcome relationships that are reciprocal, loving, and aligned.
This season will be grounded in saying:
  • No when my soul says no
  • Yes only when it’s a full-body yes
  • And never again to shrinking, overgiving, or abandoning myself

A Season of Loving Life Completely

Life in my 50s isn’t about rushing, proving, or perfecting.
It’s about savoring.
The long walks that clear my mind.
The deep conversations that nourish my heart.
The spiritual practices that remind me of who I truly am.
The joy of building a business that aligns with my purpose.
The freedom of being fully, unapologetically myself.
I love life more now than ever — not because it’s perfect, but because I am present.

50 Years, 5 Big Lessons

Here are some of the core lessons I’m carrying into this new era, many of which I’ve had the privilege of shaping through my personal journey and my work:

1. Your intuition is always speaking — even if you don’t “see” it.

Aphantasia taught me that intuition isn’t about visuals. It’s about knowing, sensing, and trusting. Your inner guidance is real, even if it comes in whispers rather than pictures.

2. Manifestation is not about forcing. It’s about aligning.

The CBAR cycle I teach — Conceive, Believe, Achieve, Receive — changed not only my clients’ lives, but my own. When you align your energy with your intention, the universe meets you halfway.

3. Boundaries are a spiritual practice.

They aren’t acts of rejection — they are acts of reverence. You cannot stay in your power if you consistently abandon it for others.

4. Healing doesn’t make you perfect — it makes you whole.

Chakra work, shadow work, and emotional honesty have shown me that healing isn’t about “fixing” myself. It’s about returning to myself.

5. You are never too old to rewrite your story.

At 50, I am reinventing, expanding, and becoming more “me” than I have ever been. Age is not a limitation — it is initiation.

Here’s to the Next 50

So here I am:
50 and fabulous.
50 and fearless.
50 and spiritually grounded, energetically aligned, and wildly excited for what’s next.
If my first season was about learning who I am, this one is about living who I am.
Here’s to the beginning of the most expansive, magical, sovereign chapter of my life — and to the knowing that the best truly is yet to come.
Happy 50th Birthday to me.
And cheers to all the versions of me that carried me here.
