đź’Ś Notes from Natalie I just got back from Mexico. Zihuatanejo to be exact. And wow. Sun, water, my best friend, low stress days, long walks, journaling, daydreaming, thinking about possibility, and actually having space to create again. It was one of those trips that reminds...
Have you been told your cholesterol is too high? Are you lying awake worrying about heart disease while your doctor pushes statins? What if everything you've been taught about protecting your heart is backwards? I've been having this exact conversation with women in our community for...
💌 Notes from Natalie Hi from Zihuatanejo, Mexico. Yes, that Zihuatanejo. And yes, I had to double check the spelling myself. 🤓 One of my best friends Allison has a second home here and I fully support the life strategy of having friends with boats and beautiful places...
Let me ask you something: Have you started planning your entire day around bathroom locations? Do you wake up multiple times every night feeling like you need to pee? Maybe you've noticed a little leakage when you laugh, cough, or do that box jump at...
💌 Notes from Natalie I’m not coming in hot with a giant list of goals or a “new year new you” speech because honestly… I’m not new. And neither are you lol. New Year’s Eve looked a little different for us this year. And if I’m being...
For years, I've watched midlife women battle their own minds…fighting intrusive thoughts about money, aging, their bodies, and whether they've done enough as mothers.

💌 Notes from Natalie I honestly cannot believe it has been two years. Two years ago today, I was recovering from my explant surgery. Breast implants. Five sets. Over 33 years. And it all started when I was 19.Yes. Nineteen. A literal teenager making a “forever” decision. What could possibly go...
Have you been told your symptoms are "all in your head" when you know something's seriously wrong with your body? You're dealing with random hives, crushing fatigue, brain fog that makes simple decisions feel impossible, and your doctor keeps telling you to focus on "one...
So… confession. I am not decorating this year. Not because I turned into the Holiday Scrooge. Not because I’m boycotting twinkle lights. But because we are going to be in California so much this month that the thought of hauling out bins, fluffing garland, and wrestling with a...
Have you noticed yourself holding your phone at arm's length just to read a text message? You're not imagining it, and you're definitely not alone. If you're in your 40s or 50s and suddenly feeling betrayed by your eyes, I want you to know that...
