ztownsend+FollowHow I got hotter at 45 than at 25đź’ŞHere's the thing about hitting your 40s - effort beats genetics now. In my 20s, I couldn't compete with naturally gorgeous girls who looked amazing in sweats. My weak chin and big nose? Game over. But at 45? Getting super fit (not just skinny), investing in good skincare, clothes that actually fit, and proper makeup changes everything. While others are letting themselves go, I'm leveling up. Your natural features matter way less when you're the one who clearly takes care of yourself. The playing field finally evened out. Anyone else feel like 40s is when effort actually pays off? #Aging #40sGlowUp #FitnessOver40 #MidlifeConfidence 20Share
jsmith+FollowI Tried Heels Again—and Felt Like a Different WomanIt’s been years since I wore heels. Flats, sneakers, and slip-ons have become my everyday staples—comfortable, practical, and easy on my feet. But the other day, I pulled out an old pair of black pumps from the back of the closet. Just for fun. Just to see. And when I put them on… something shifted. I stood taller. I looked in the mirror and felt a version of myself I hadn’t seen in a while—confident, powerful, even a little glamorous. It wasn’t about impressing anyone. It was just… me. Remembering that I could still feel like that woman. Of course, after 20 minutes, the foot pain set in. And let’s be honest—I’m not wearing them to the grocery store. But still… it made me wonder: 👉 Do you ever wear something just to feel like your old self again? 👉 Is it worth the discomfort to feel that little spark? 👉 Or have you found other ways to tap into that same energy—without the aching toes? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
