Make Your Voice Heard – What Makes You Fierce at Midlife?

01

I am so honored to be part of the Forever Fierce Facebook Group started a year ago by a visionary named Catherine Grace O’Connell!  It started with 50 women and has grown to over 5000 in just one year!  This is a supportive and empowering group and we are changing the idea of what midlife is all about!  I am one of 50 bloggers who was chosen because they represent the qualities of kindness, compassion and a radiantly, beautiful heart, to pose this question to nine non bloggers in order to make their voices heard…What Makes You Fierce at Midlife?  Midlife is a time to make your own rules and shine more brightly than ever before!  Here are the nine very different answers to that question!  I hope you enjoy reading this post and that it changes your perception about what midlife is all about!  All of the women represented in this campaign represent the qualities of kindness, compassion and they all have a radiantly beautiful heart!  The world needs to hear the voices of women at midlife!  To read the blog posts of the other 49 women please visit the Forever Fierce Campaign 2018.  And be sure to join the Revolution at Forever Fierce on Facebook.

      Thank you so much Jodie! Being a part of this group has been life changing! What an inspirational group of women we are!

  2. Suzanne, there are so many amazingly beautiful stories here. Every woman has a story. Every woman has struggled in one or another to make it to midlife. And what a fabulous place midlife is. I am with you on that feeling of the Universe meeting me where I am and providing me the direction I needed. It took me 40 plus years to find my purpose and I grow more confident every day in that purpose. I will continue doing what I do with the passion I have and the Universe will continue to respond to me…just as it will to you. And I totally feel you on the emotional draining process of reading these posts! I am slowly making my through…and I am so empowered by them . There is so much depth, pain, strength, and a million other emotions flowing abundantly. And I couldn’t be more grateful to have been a part of this! Love you, fierce sister!
