Awesome! Very empowering and inspiring.
ReplyDeleteI am honored to be part of such an amazing group of women, That just happens to be on their fourth decade.
I am only 4 decades old. . :)
Thank you for this Blog. A brilliant affirmation of the beauty and power of women in their 40's. I have found this decade to be- without a doubt- the best of my life. I know myself better, I am stronger and wiser, AND even more beautiful because my beauty emanates from within.
