If 45+ and you had a chance to talk to your 38-year-old self, what would you say?

First + foremost, Hope you had a wonderful birthday‼️🤩🎁

Me to my 38 yr. old self ->>
(I am 54 now.)

• Wear sunscreen. And do not overlook your hands.
There is nothing uglier than sun spots littering your hands!

• Drink more water - less soda pop.

• See a dentist. Take care of your teeth!

• Get your mammogram.
Guess what? They do not hurt. At. all.

• Take more walks.

• Finally appreciate life. Practice daily gratitude.
Blessings come in many different forms.

Oh one more thing…..stop coloring your hair for fun.
Because pretty soon you will NEED to color it on a regular basis.
For some this equates to a 2nd job.

Lol.

This is your pivot moment. Take it.

You will rise to a high point in your career. You will likely be making real money. Your values are likely shifting as you have kids and they grow and/or your parents age. This tends to be a chapter of life where women feel a desire to upend some things and better align their lifestyle and work with their values - and finally have some money to do it. Take the leap! It’s your last big pivot opportunity before retirement.

Really enjoy the teenagers still at home the best you can.

And open a hot yoga studio.


God, your version of life sounds miserable.

1) 38 is still young enough to do pretty much anything you want.
2) 100 % ignore other's opinions and make up your own mind and then surround yourself with those supportive of your own choices.
3) Buy NVIDA stock, lol...

I would say hang in their with grace and kindness, things get better. I would attend therapy instead of trying to toughen it up by myself.
