There came a moment in my life when I realized that I had stepped into another part of my life. I used to walk into a room full of people and think, do they like me? And one day I walk in and I thought, do I like them?

When I became a mature woman, I put both feet firmly on the side of maturity.

I enjoy speaking to other women about turning 50, and how we can enjoy it, and how we can explore it

No one can make me work harder than I do, so I'm generally not interested in who I am competing with.

Ignorance is not bliss, but in my case, that was.

I grew up thinking that whatever I wanted to do, I could do.

If wanted to play a sport, I played a sport. If I wanted to do things that many girls born in 1950 didn't do, I did it
