Welcome to Fiftyandmore: Grace, Grit, and Chronic Living
Turning 50 didn’t just add candles to the cake—it lit a fire in me. It brought clarity, wisdom, and a deeper connection with my body and the challenges it faces. In my forties, I faced a wave of unexpected health struggles—rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia (still without full answers), and the lasting impact of a half-colectomy. I didn’t choose these battles, but I’m learning to live with them.
As a single mother working full-time, there are no pauses, no real “days off.” Even when life slows down, the pain doesn’t. But neither does my encouraging spirit.
That’s why I created Fiftyandmore. This isn’t just a blog—it’s my soft place to land. A space where I can breathe, create, and connect in a way that honors my limits and nourishes my spirit. It’s a passion project I can manage, and more than that, it’s a heartfelt offering to women like me. I hope you connect and enjoy it.
Here, I’ll share the routines, products, and mindset shifts that help me move through each day with grace. I’ll open up about what it’s like to live with invisible pain, while still showing up—for family, for work, and most importantly, for myself.
Because you can live gracefully after 50, no matter what life throws your way.
Let’s rise softly, together.
With strength and graciousness,
Aimée ❤️✨
