Hi, I’m Gray!
State of Gray is aimed at women of a certain age, who are going through transitions.
Maybe you feel stuck between two lives or two stages. One that you’ve left and one you’re in now. You might feel lonely - no longer heard, understood or appreciated. It can be isolating.
Are you having trouble finding your purpose? Maybe things aren’t working out as you had planned or hoped, and you’re working with Plan B. I hope to be relatable to you and your everyday life.
This is not a grief blog, but we will discuss that, because by this point in our lives, most of us have suffered some kind of loss. In 2011 and 2012 I suffered devastating losses. After 3 or 4 years of really not wanting to be here, I read a particularly great book, and I realized I can’t ever fix this, but I wanted to be heard. I think I was meant to write. I’ll tell my story and we’ll see how it relates to yours, as I think it’s a dialogue worth having.
I hope that what I share on this blog resonates with you and encourages and educates you. I’m all about refreshing, reevaluation, reporposing ourselves for what lies ahead. We are at the stage of the game where we ask ourselves, “what now?” It’s time to do all the things you never thought you would do, or always wanted to do. Let’s have a discussion of what it’s like to age well!
I’m also finding and sharing items, ideas and information for women over 50, so that we can live our best lives. What works for us? What is our version of style? We all want to remain relevant, no matter our age. I believe that as we age, we become more and more who we were always meant to be. We return to our true selves. We are done trying to be everything to everybody.
This blog is about the things that I’m interested in - style, flowers, beauty, humor, travel, decorating, shopping, books, etc etc… But now it will be more. Because I am more. We all are!
It’s the State of Gray. It’s the state of me, the state of us. It’s a most unexpected shade of gray!
