Vegas in My 50s Hits…Different

💌 Notes from Natalie

Vegas in My 50s… It’s a Whole Thing

I just got back from Vegas earlier this week and wow… It was ½ for business and ½ for me and Brooks 10 year anniversary! TEN YEARS! Dang time flies!

I had fun but I also needed a nap, a hydration IV, and a sage cleanse for my nervous system.

Vegas in my 20s? I was thriving. Vegas in my 50s? I’m strategizing. 😂

My thoughts on Vegas?

💗 10 Ways Vegas Hits Different in My 50s vs My 20s 💗

In my 20s: Pre-gamed with lemon drops Now: Pre-game = minerals, enzymes, and making sure my purse fits my readers.

Then: Heels so high I lost circulation Now: Give me wedges… or sneakers… or just Uber me back to my room.

Used to love the chaos, the lights, the noise Now: I need recovery protocols for LED exposure, secondhand smoke, and music over 30 decibels.

Then: I hit the club Now: I hit 10K steps walking to dinner and back. Same sweat, different story.

Used to say yes to every invite Now: I ghost like a Vegas illusionist by 8:59pm. ✌🏼

Back then: Buffets and late-night pizza Now: “Is this grass-fed? Gluten-free? Anti-inflammatory?”

Then: Lived for the action Now: Give me quiet rooms, filtered air, and a room with a window that actually opens.

Used to bounce back from zero sleep Now: If I miss my bedtime window… don’t talk to me until Thursday.

Then: Makeup meltdown was just part of the night Now: Strategically sweat-proofed, layered, and armed for the dry air + hot flash sneak attacks.

Then: Screaming over the DJ Now: “Can we find somewhere quiet so I can actually hear what you’re saying?”

And…  If you think you saw me out late… no you didn’t.That was a hologram. I was in bed. Face masked. Legs elevated. 😴

What I craved the minute I got home?

Not pizza. Not champagne. Not the slot machines. I craved sunlight, silence, and my Beam Minerals.

After alllllll that travel, airport air, restaurant food, and overstimulation… my system needed a reboot. I told my husband I was most excited for my own bed and my MINERALS.

In case you have not tried them, they are my go-to… This duo!

💧Electrolyze + Micro-Boost from Beam

No dyes, no sugars, no junk—just powerful liquid minerals that help your body bounce back and feel balanced again. BASICALLY Energy, hydration, detox, digestion, mood, and (yes) regularity… all supported.

2️⃣ And YES—finally—I shared the full story behind the necklace I never take off… the one with the little purple energy balls everyone asks me about 💜 What is it? How does it work? And why am I so obsessed? 🎧 You can hear that one here →
