62 Years Young and Just Getting Started: Building a Business That Fits Your Life at Any Age

Birthdays have a way of making you pause not because of the number, but because of what the number represents. On November 29th, I celebrated my 62nd birthday another year gifted, another moment to be fully present and intentional about the life I’m building.

And honestly?
This season of life feels less like “aging” and more like becoming.
Becoming more grounded, more aware, more intentional, and more committed to creating a life that fits who I am now not who I used to be.

People sometimes laugh when I say it, but the moment your birthday ends, you're already working on the next year. It's not the number that matters. It's the movement. The presence. The choice to live your life on purpose instead of drifting through it.

That choice that shift is exactly why I’m building a business that fits my life.

A Business Rooted in Alignment, Not Hustle

There comes a time, especially in your fifties and sixties, when you realize you’re done trying to force yourself into boxes that never fit. You're done doing things that drain you. You're done trying to keep pace with expectations that have nothing to do with your values.

You want something real.
Something meaningful.
Something flexible.
Something you can grow into without sacrificing your peace.

That’s what this business has been for me.

It isn’t about proving anything to anyone.
It’s about creating something that honors my life, my health, my wisdom, and my priorities.

I’m not chasing someone else’s definition of success.
I’m building something that supports my rhythm.

Some days I move fast.
Some days I move slow.
Some seasons are full, and some are reflective.
And all of it counts.

This business flexes with me because it’s designed to fit the life I’m choosing to live.

It Feels Good to Feel Good (Inside and Out)

One of the things I love about what I do is the ability to take care of my wellness from every angle, every direction.

We support our bodies from the inside out through the microbiome.
And now also from the outside in with neuroscience skincare and fermented hair care designed to work with the skin and scalp microbiome while going cellular-deep.

It’s not just about looking better.
It’s about feeling better.
Feeling grounded.
Feeling your energy come back online.
Feeling like YOU again.

And like I always say…

“It feels good to feel good.”

That’s not just a quote.
That’s my lived experience.
That’s what I want others to feel too.

This Stage of Life Is Not a Slowdown It’s a Rise

At 62, there is a clarity that only experience can bring.

A steady confidence.
A gentler strength.
A deeper sense of what matters.

And instead of winding down, I feel like I’m rising into purpose, into healing, into leadership, into a business that allows me to support others in a way that feels natural, heart-led, and honest.

I don’t want to hustle.
I don’t want chaos.
I don’t want overwhelm.

I want alignment.
I want calm strength.
I want a business that feels like a natural extension of the life I’m building.

And that’s exactly what I’ve created.

Every day, my goal is simple:
1% better now.
Not tomorrow.
Not next month.
Not when life magically settles down.

Now.

Because small present choices build strong future chapters.

You Are the Only One Who Can Choose Your Next Step

Most people aren’t stuck because they don’t have options.
They’re stuck because they’re waiting for permission.

Permission to want more.
Permission to try something new.
Permission to build something later in life.
Permission to trust their inner nudge.
Permission to take that first step.

But here’s the truth:
No one gave me permission.
I had to give it to myself.

And if you’re reading this, there’s a part of you that already knows you’re capable of something more — whether it’s more energy, more purpose, more freedom, or simply more belief in yourself.

You’re not too old.
You’re not too late.
You’re not behind.

You’re right on time.

You Truly Have Everything to Gain

People often worry about investing in themselves.
But in this kind of business, your biggest investment is simply taking care of you.

Your health.
Your wellness.
Your confidence.
Your microbiome.
Your glow.
Your energy.

Everything else is a choice not a risk.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

And the better question isn’t:
“What if it doesn’t work?”

It’s:
“What if it does?”

What if this becomes the thing that brings your spark back?
What if this becomes the reason you feel excited again?
What if this becomes the bridge to the future you didn’t know how to reach?

You don’t have to decide everything today.
Just take one honest step.

Age Doesn’t Define Your Possibility Presence Does

I’m 62, and I’m just getting started.
Not because time is running out
but because I’m more present, more purposeful, and more aligned than ever.

You don’t need youth to build a meaningful life.
You need willingness.
You need honesty.
You need presence.
And you need to choose yourself even if it’s one small step at a time.

Your next season isn’t defined by what you’ve lived.
It’s defined by what you choose next.

And if no one else has told you yet:
You’re ready.
You’re capable.
And your story is far from over.
