My favorite was your last one. Get rid of toxic people! A year ago I did this and a huge weight was lifted. You were reconfirming I did the right thing. Thank you, Nancy! 💕
It’s a privilege to get old, my Dad died at just 51 and my Mum at just 49, I was in my very early 20s and now I’m mid 70s and I’m so proud/grateful to have you to this age. 😊
PS...I recently took the bold step of removing a toxic person from my life. It was a very considered step. Turns out, it was a really healthy thing to do and I'm totally relieved.
I'll turn to 60 . After watching this video, it let me know I have to think positive to everything. Aging is a natural experience to every one. I will get old but I'm not lonely because my friends around me will also get old. No judgement to other people, and no need to worry about something that has not yet happened. I'm impressed in the above two points. Thanks for your sharing.
Thanks for a very inspiring and plain spoken talk about age. I am 78 and for several years now have been facilitating groups to empower retirees. This is my latest career after being an academic for decades. I always make a point of stating my age proudly and pointing out that the only way not to age is to die young, so I prefer to age.
I will be 65 in two days. And I’m proud of it. My age doesn’t bother me a bit. I’ve always been optimistic too. I normally look for the good in any situation. I used to worry a lot. But not anymore. I finally realized it did no good. And I stopped. I think with age comes wisdom is definitely true. I clean my closet out constantly. I have gained weight from the medication I take. And I’m learning to deal with the body I have. I don’t want it, but I’m stuck with it right now. So I’m dealing with it. We moved to a different state five years ago. And it was to get away from toxic people. We were related to a lot of them. But our life is so much easier now. It was wonderful to get away. And I’m so happy we did.
Happy birthday, Pamela! Your positivity and wisdom are truly inspiring. Embracing change and focusing on the good is such a powerful approach. I’m glad to hear you’re in a better place now. Keep shining! 💕
The quote that I have heard from ladies close to my age lately is, "I want to stay relevant." I say, "I am my most relevant right now!" Just like you are saying Nancy. I have wisdom and knowledge that I never had before. This is the best time of my life : )
I'd like to add this to the skin issues. I have been diagnosed with Squamous Cell skin cancer on the tip of my nose, it's already stage 2 within 2 months and some Squamous Cell Carcinomas can be very aggressive. I had one of those on my shin. My Dermatologist and Surgeon both told me that it's likely these are from childhood. My mom never would allow me to use sunscreen as a child, they didn't have it when she was little was her reason. I am extremely fair, unlike my olive skinned mother. Please make sure to slather on sunblock--on your kids and yourself. I may end up having to get more surgery to close the hole in my nose this will leave so please keep you and your family safe.
That’s a great story about your mom! I recently turned 66. On my 65th birthday, we celebrated at my mother in laws house. People were wishing me happy birthday. I said thank you and that I was officially old( I had googled to find out what age was concerned old) and almost in unison, a group of people said “ OLD-ER!”….we do need to embrace Old.
So absolutely true about wasting our time worrying about things that never materialise! I try to stop doing that. I have also made a habit, starting about a year ago, that, before I go to sleep at night, I go over everything I have done for myself that day, right from getting 8 hrs. sleep, to walking 3 miles, the good food I consumed to skin care. It changes my focus and encourages me to continue in that positive vein.
I have a friend that has always lied about her age. I told her that I would prefer people think I look good for - say 50- than I look like hell for 39. 🤣
I have a (friend) she thinks she is better than me ) she graduated same year I did but she says she is about 3-4 years younger NO WAY I TRY TO IGNORE HER I DON' T say anything
Thank you Nancy, you reminded me about so many aspects of my life that I either need to re-think or I have mastered. "Some of the worst things in my life never happened." Mark Twain
Hello, what a great video, thank you. All very sage advice... worrying is a really dreadful habit that messes with sleep and health. You're such a lovely person.
Good skin is a blessing- I’ve been having increasingly allergic skin and sensitivity- fortunately I no longer worry about what others see and feel strong in myself . My inner self shines through my skin issues
Nancy, I absolutely loved this video! I am so encouraged by your thoughts and am committing to letting go of these things that do not let the best me shine through. 😊
At 50 years old, I’m just beginning to think about my we’ll being, by practicing mindfulness, treating myself more and not letting others stressing me. I am a people pleaser and have been used and stepped on since childhood. Though I still make exceptions for my 3 adult children and husband 😂
Great content ... and achievable! Toxic people definitely must go. I tackled this the last few years. It was extremely difficult but worth taking on as there are two less 'toxic people' that I am completely free of and a couple that are now on the fringes of my life. Thankyou for sharing.
Thank you, Lee! It’s amazing to hear you’ve made such positive changes. Removing toxic people can be tough, but it’s so worth it. Keep up the great work! 🌟
Fantastic post, Nancy! Thanks also for the info and the discount on the face mask; it works in Australia too. I've 1:50 been considering buying one for a while, but felt like I needed to do a heap of research on the best one. You don't often promote items. I feel I can trust your recommendations.
I am 80 and don’t feel old. People are surprised to hear my age since I don’t walk old. Nw 70 or 60 sounds young. I nerve paid much attention to my age when I was younger except on my birthday. I am surprised to have gotten this old, but since I had a stressful job I took good care of myself. BTW I have gorgeous old clothes that don’t fit me and still love to look at them. I might make something else out of them so I can use those beautiful fabrics. In any case this is one thing I do differently from the usual advice.
👋. I love your hair and the style is great. I think aging is great in experiences and hopefully, wisdom. No one likes change but a baby. On good/bad days there is always Lipstick 💄. Thank you for sharing. It is great to see you again.
Great video! Guilt over things that happened so long ago I can't do anything other than learn from them can be done without, but I think every day situations can sometimes bring a tinge of guilt that shows us how we may still have a chance to fix something, for example, if I don't take the time to really listen to someone's problems because I was preoccupied with something else and realize that later, I can reach out to them and follow up. AI like the thought of being given a closet full of items but only 25% of them actually work for us - really points out what we have often set up for ourselves! As for age, my mother always loved to tell people how old she was (over 95 when she passed away) because they would invariably politely say, "Oh, you don't look it!" 😄
@@kathygann7632 I know what you mean, but I also find it instructive because often when I feel guilty about something, there's a good reason and it actually helps me try to be a better person. We're not meant to stay in guilt, but to understand why we may be feeling that way, whether it is merited, and what to do in the future.
My late husband made posters celebrating my 50th birthday and put them on telephone poles! It was so out of character for him and embarrassing for me. Lol
Nancy, you had me laughing out loud when you said to your friend oh you look like crap today, whoo! Your sweater looks interesting. Happy you're back. Hope you're doing okay. 🌼🌷🌹
LOL, I'm glad you enjoyed that! Thanks for your kind thought, Wendy. I'm taking it one day at a time. I know that the loss of my Dad won't heal overnight, so I'm just trying to take things in stride. I find myself talking to him a lot! 💕
Nancy, I know where you're coming from. I lost two of my sons in the last year and a half. I don't think we'll ever get over it. It's very hard. I've been going through this all alone. Life is sobering. Hopefully we can get past this terrible sadness. I talk to my son's too. I keep telling myself they would want me happy. I'm trying real hard to find a new purpose in life. I think that involves helping others. We all need each other. One day at a time as the saying goes. We all go through this. It's how we handle the hard times. I hope this helps you, your podcast really gives me a lift. I really appreciate the work you put into it Take care, 💕
I’m new to this channel … would you tell me where to buy quality plus size clothes on line ? I never know if it will fit and what the quality will be …..I’ve bought so many tops that to me are see through and the neckline is way too big !
Embrace your age! Enjoy every stage of your life. Try new things. You dont have anything holding you back, except yourself! Be your own best friend! I’m 66, we do so much, bicycling trips, hiking. Snowshoeing, we go to the gym regularly, have coffee with friends. I eat a healthy diet, maintain my weight. I continue to wear makeup, update my clothes. THOSES MASKS ARE A WASTE OF MONEY! I tried it…
I think your father publishing your mothers birthday was a bully/ shit thing to do. I would not forgive him ever as it was clearly done on purpose…incredibly cruel….and you chuckle. I am out.

Penelope, thank you for sharing your story. It truly is a privilege to grow older, and your gratitude is inspiring. Take care!💕
My friend, may parents also died young. Looking forward to a long life, God willing!_😊
PS...I recently took the bold step of removing a toxic person from my life. It was a very considered step. Turns out, it was a really healthy thing to do and I'm totally relieved.
My mother did the same 29 and holding. I am 65 and proud of it ❤

Nancy, thank you for your very positive talk that I needed to hear.
I totally agree with everything you said, Too much makeup makes you look hard? And toxic people will weigh you down.

Nancy, I love the content of this video. You are such an encourager and I appreciate you.
Thank you so much! 🥰
Most of the stuff I worry about never happens. But the stuff I never imagined, so unexpected, that stuff does happen.
That's so true! 😂
So absolutely true about wasting our time worrying about things that never materialise! I try to stop doing that.

That’s a wonderful habit! Shifting focus to the positive is so powerful. Thank you for sharing your routine-it’s truly inspiring! Keep it up! 🌟
Good morning. I love your haircut! This was such thoughtful and important content. Thank you. Have a wonderful Summer. ❤
Thanks so much, you too!☀

My sister-in-law says she is 39 with lots of experience (she is mid 70s now). Thank you for a clear and uplifting message. So nice to see your videos.
Thank you Nancy, you reminded me about so many aspects of my life that I either need to re-think or I have mastered.

Hello, what a great video, thank you. All very sage advice... worrying is a really dreadful habit that messes with sleep and health. You're such a lovely person.
The fear of getting old is just like worry. It harms your body, doesn’t change anything, and is a waste of time. Don’t waste your time and energy.
Well said, Kathy! 🥰
Such sensible advice 😀
Thanks so much, Fran! 😍
Good advice no matter your age.Thank you
Thank you for addressing judgment and worry.
Thank you Nancy for such a thoughtful message!
I'm glad you enjoyed it 💕
Also, I always attempt to count my blessings. Thank you God for everything.
So true! I'm 64 & every day that I'm walking the planet is a good day.
Amen ❤
Thank you. ❤️
The glass is refillable!
Love your perspective! 😍
Great video, I’m turning 66 this July but I still feel in my 40’s.. I still listening to Talking Heads, Berlin, Police etc…
We had the best music in the 80's!! The Cure, Furs, Specials, Madness...so many!
Good skin is a blessing- I’ve been having increasingly allergic skin and sensitivity- fortunately I no longer worry about what others see and feel strong in myself . My inner self shines through my skin issues

I have just founvd your channel today. Love your wardrobe style.

Great video, agree, agree, agree. We all just need reminding !
Thanks so much, Diane! 🤩
I lost my mom at 63 and my son at 34 so please grow old gracefully
Love your shirt. The neutral looks good on you
Bravo - this is one to repeat or highlight in future videos so more can see it. Thank you!
Thanks so much - I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🥰
Good advice❤
Fantastic post, Nancy! Thanks also for the info and the discount on the face mask; it works in Australia too. I've 1:50 been considering buying one for a while, but felt like I needed to do a heap of research on the best one. You don't often promote items. I feel I can trust your recommendations.
Thanks, Rosemary! I hope you enjoy it! 💕
Great list Nancy. :D
You have great style. I would love to know where you bought your sweater.
Watching from Anguilla 🇦🇮
This is such a great video with wonderful tips. A great reminder for us! 💖🚀💫✨
I'm glad you enjoyed it! 💕

This was perfect …I just truly celebrated my 70th birthday 🥳🎂🥂🍾🥳💖
Great video, Nancy! I am thinking about getting the LED mask. Sounds very impressive. I love the image of the cave people!! 😂😂😂
I ordered this and was told by my dermatologist that this can increase melasma and can also irritate rosacea.
My late husband made posters celebrating my 50th birthday and put them on telephone poles! It was so out of character for him and embarrassing for me. Lol
LOL, I love that story - thanks for sharing it! 🤩
You always give great tips and positivity ! MISS YOUR KNITTING !!!
Where did you get the lovely sweater you have on?
Nancy, you had me laughing out loud when you said to your friend oh you look like crap today, whoo!
Your sweater looks interesting.
Happy you're back. Hope you're doing okay. 🌼🌷🌹

Worry is a useless emotion.
A little boy said to his mom, “I know you said you are 29 and holding, but how old would you be if you turned loose?”
LOL, love it! 😂

Getting older is a PRIVELEDGE!! Enjoy!!
