The thought of turning 50 had me running through a plethora of emotions. Fear, excitement, hesitation and disbelief.
In true form, I started should-ing all over myself. “At 50 I should have, I should be, I should have done etc.
My 40’s was a time of transition for me. I was stripped of everything I thought I was, torn down and rebuilt into someone who still has a lifetime of possibilities.
In my 50th year I am going to live authenticity and selfishly. I am my most valuable possession and I need to treat myself as such.
I release the bondage of what society and my own expectations tell me who I am supposed be at 50. I will redefine what age 50 means for me.
I’m looking forward to what the next ten years of life has for me.
My name is Lisa M Evans MA, CDP. I am an author, blogger, introvert and vegan. I earned a Masters degree in Psychology from Cleveland State University and a certification in Diversity Management.
I created this blog to come out of my shell and share my perspective on a variety of topics. I want to use this blog as a sounding board, gathering place and learning opportunity.
I plan on sharing a little bit of everything that interests me, natural hair, being vegan, and anything else that moves me.
I have three titles that are available on Amazon, I Know How to Lose Weight, So Why Haven't I, a self-help book that was written as a way to work through my issues with weight and dig deeper than just diet and exercise, This is my brain on emotion, a collection of poems that I have written over the years to express my innermost thoughts and feelings, Rich Man's Song, a children's book that teaches a valuable lesson about love and money.
