Ep 50: Age: The Topic That Flooded My DMs With Replies

Whether 25 or 58, I received so many replies when I began to discuss how we feel around our age. Starting a business, getting married, having a baby, whatever the life milestone or decision it’s clear there is far more we have in common than different, wherever our present age.

A few Q’s to journal on or discuss with a girlfriend, your mother, or daughter this week:

• Notice culture prizes youth, but we don’t have to be. What are the stories we have? Why do they feel important?
• What does it look like to stop focusing on it for ourselves? Being aware that the language we use for ourselves, puts those same expectations on all the other women around us.
• What if we focused on what we do want instead? Being inspired by anyone doing something at an age we’ve yet to reach? What examples do we have of that?
• Finally, taking empowered action TO feel more beautiful, accomplished, joyful, however we desire to feel. Instead of feeling we don’t have a choice, what can we do to look, live, and feel the way we want today and in the years to come?

Would love to hear your thoughts on this if you’ll come chime in below my latest post, whatever it is, on Instagram @HilaryRushford.
