This is me. Turning 50. In the raw. No makeup. No filters. Eye bags at their best. Chillin' in my backyard. I wanted to do it up big this year. Get my hair and makeup done. Try to be more glam and more than I really am. But then I realized I just want to be me.

In a World that's becoming more and more fake, with AI forcing me to constantly question what's real and what isn't. I just want to be authentically me. So this morning I brushed my hair and my teeth and threw on my athletic gear, preparing for a hike in the woods, my favorite place to be. It's going to be 60 and sunny today. Unusually beautiful for Minnesota in early November.

This is me. Turning 50. It will be official tomorrow. 11/5/25.

I'll be honest. It isn't easy. In this moment I am consciously choosing to move forward with a smile on my face and hope in my heart. Despite the current state of affairs in this Country...in this World. Where humanity is suffering. Where there is more division and hate than I have seen in my 50 years here. I see it. I feel it. But I must not let it destroy me.

I have spent many weeks recently reflecting on where I've been. And much time pondering where my path is headed during the precious time that's left. Reaching into the depths of my soul, accepting who I am and where my life has taken me. My identity is in flux. My body hurts more. My finances are unstable. But I am alive. I have a wonderful husband and the most loving dogs. I have a beautiful home in a safe place. I have a loving family (even if they are far away). I have a job. And I continue to have the ability to pursue my passions. I am grateful.

While some may consider 50 to be young these days, it's still a turning point. It's the end of a youthful era and the start of something different. Not good or bad. Just different. And a time to be more conscious, more aware of my actions and my interactions. Time to decide how I can make more of a positive difference with the time I have left.

My mother began to lose her memory in her early 60s and is now in late stage dementia in her early 70s. My father fell off a horse in his early 40s, spent 13 years in a coma and then died from sepsis. I feel fortunate to still have my overall health, to be walking and talking. To be witnessing the beauty in this World that can feel so dark at times.

50 years gone. Maybe 50 years remain? I plan to make the next 50 count. I plan to walk forward with light, truth, authenticity, and compassion. Let's make this World a better place together.

Much Love, my friends.

True healing begins when you realize you are not powerless.

Energy medicine teaches that you can influence your vitality, shift patterns, and open to greater clarity — because energy is always moving, always transformable.

The key is awareness: when you notice, you can choose. When you choose, you reclaim your power.

✨ Reflection: Where in my life do I sense energy waiting to move?

I danced under the Northern Lights and my soul felt the joy of life.
