🌟 Embracing Every Chapter of Our Lives 🌟

Hello everyone! Today, I want to share a bit of my journey with you. As someone who's stepping confidently into this exciting stage of life, I believe that every age brings its unique beauty and opportunities. For me, growing older is not about the years but about the experiences and wisdom we gather along the way.

I've always believed in living life to the fullest, and part of that is taking care of myself – body, mind, and spirit. It's not about chasing youth, but about cherishing who we are at this moment, and feeling our best in our own skin. 💪

As I navigate this wonderful chapter, I’ve come to appreciate the little things that make a big difference – a hearty laugh, exploring new places, a skincare routine that feels like a daily treat, or that perfect set of nails that just completes a look. 💅✈️

I'm also an ambassador for a brand I adore (which I’ll keep under wraps here 😉), and I’ve found some incredible beauty gems that align with my philosophy of celebrating life at any age. But before we get into that, I want to hear from you! What are the things that make you feel vibrant and alive? How do you celebrate your unique journey?

Let’s build a space here where we share, inspire, and uplift each other. Where beauty is about feeling great and living joyfully. I’m excited to share my insights, stories, and maybe a few secret beauty tips along the way. 🌷

💬 Feel free to DM me if you want to chat, exchange travel stories, or are curious about my mysterious beauty favorites!

🌟 Don’t waste your time looking back. You’re not going that way. Those words are a reminder that we should always keep moving forward in life. Dwelling on the past can hold us back and prevent us from achieving our goals. Instead, we should focus on the present and future.

Here are some ways to stay focused on the present and future:

• Set clear goals: Having a clear idea of what you want to achieve can help you stay focused on the present. By setting achievable goals, you can work towards them one step at a time.
• Practice mindfulness: Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present and aware of your thoughts and feelings. By practicing mindfulness, you can train your mind to stay in the present moment.
• Learn from the past: While it’s important not to dwell on the past, we can still learn from our experiences. Reflecting on past mistakes and successes can help us make better decisions in the present.
• Surround yourself with positive people: The people we surround ourselves with can have a big impact on our mindset. Surround yourself with positive, supportive people who encourage you to achieve your goals.

Remember, the past is behind us, and the future is yet to come. The only moment we have control over is the present, so let’s make the most of it.

🌱 Hello, dear friends, and welcome to our weekly Wellness Wednesday! Today, let’s talk about the amazing benefits of exercise and how it can transform your life. I’m excited to share with you my personal workout routine that not only keeps me physically fit but also boosts my confidence and overall well-being.💪

My daily wellness routine includes two sessions a week with my personal trainer, Wendy Ida. What I love about it - other than the fantastic results that I get from our workouts - is that we do our sessions through live video. I’m a busy person, just like many of you, and this way, I can work out from home without sacrificing the quality of my exercise routine.

💆‍♀️ Now, it’s your turn, my lovely friends! I’d love to hear about your exercise routines, fitness goals, and activities that keep you moving and energized. Let’s prioritize our well-being together and encourage each other to embrace the power of fitness. How does exercise make you feel? Share your thoughts and experiences with us, and let’s inspire each other to live a happy, healthy, and active lifestyle!

🌟 Hey, my friends! It’s Share Your Hobbies Saturday, and I’m excited to dive into the wonderful world of our hobbies. Today, I want to share with you my journey of using writing as a guide to self-discovery and healing. 📝

Writing has become a passion of mine, and I refer to it as my ‘pen and paper therapy.’ It has served as a tool to navigate through my past and learn more about myself. Writing has given me a sense of clarity and understanding about my own emotions, allowing me to find my voice, accept myself, and learn to say no. 🌟

I encourage you to share your hobbies with us on Share Your Hobbies Saturday. Let’s ignite our creativity and passion together by sharing photos and stories related to our favorite hobbies. Don’t forget to use the hashtags .

Join me in this journey of self-discovery and healing, and let’s continue to explore the wonderful world of hobbies together!

Hello and welcome to "Carla's Ageless Wisdom Community" for Women Over 60! I'm absolutely delighted to have you here in our growing group, where we're just beginning to shape our experiences, stories, and knowledge together.

My name is Carla Anderson, and I'm excited to get to know each and every one of you. I've been married to my wonderful husband, Shane, for 24 years, and we have a family of six children. Together, we run a residential remodeling company, but my passion lies in writing, learning, and sharing with others.

As a lifelong learner, I believe that age is just a number, and that we can continue to grow and thrive no matter where we are on life's timeline. I created this group to connect with women who share my zest for life, my love for learning, and my desire to age gracefully, without feeling or acting old.

In this group, we're just getting started on our journey, and we'll explore a variety of topics, including travel, wellness, marketing, motivation, and more. Together, we'll shape the environment of positivity, respect, and kindness that we aspire to create. We're all here to support each other, learn from each other, and grow together.

So, I invite you to introduce yourself in the comments below. Share a bit about your passions, your dreams, and what brings you to this group. And don't forget to invite your friends who share our mindset to join us on this exciting journey!

The harder you work for something, the better you will feel when you can achieve it.

This quote is a reminder that the effort we put into something is directly proportional to the sense of accomplishment we feel when we achieve it. It is not uncommon for people to feel discouraged when they face obstacles and difficulties in their pursuit of a goal. However, it is important to remember that these obstacles are just a part of the journey, and the harder we work to overcome them, the sweeter the victory will be in the end.

In addition, the process of working hard towards a goal can also be fulfilling in its own right. It can help us learn new skills, build resilience, and develop a sense of purpose and direction. So, when faced with a challenging goal, remember that the journey is just as important as the destination. Keep pushing yourself, stay motivated, and celebrate every small victory along the way.

Today is a struggle. Tomorrow is hope. The future belongs to us who keep trying.

Life is full of ups and downs, and sometimes it feels like we're constantly fighting an uphill battle. However, it's important to remember that every new day brings with it new opportunities and a chance to start fresh. Even though today may be difficult, tomorrow holds the promise of hope and a brighter future.





It's easy to feel defeated when things aren't going our way, but we must keep trying. Every small step we take towards our goals is progress, no matter how insignificant it may seem at the time. With determination and perseverance, we can overcome any obstacle and achieve our dreams.

So, let's not give up on ourselves or our dreams. Let's keep pushing forward, even when it feels like the odds are against us. The future belongs to those who never give up and keep trying, no matter what challenges they may face. So, let's keep striving towards our goals and believe that the best is yet to come.

Starting your day with a positive mindset can make a huge difference in your overall mood and productivity. When you wake up with a negative attitude, it can be difficult to shake off that feeling throughout the day. However, when you start your day with a small positive thought, it can set the tone for the rest of your day. This could be something as simple as thinking about something you're grateful for, or setting an intention for the day. By doing this, you are putting yourself in a more positive and proactive mindset, which can lead to a more fulfilling day ahead. So the next time you wake up feeling groggy or down, try starting your day with a small positive thought and see how it can change your whole day for the better!

Worth sharing again

I’ve probably shared this one before but it’s a good one. I’m working on getting up the courage to share my stories. A little at a time is fine. So many of them are already laced in the pages of the books I’ve written, am writing, will write.
