I love Suzy of Empty Nest Blessed. She shares fashion looks for women in our age group.

Fabulous After 40
Deborah of Fabulous After 40 is from Canada and wowza! I want to look like her when I grown up. She is some kinda gorgeous and her fashion sense is flawless. Her look is very high end, but many of the clothes come from Amazon and Nordstrom Rack. She even has a story highlight with looks from Walmart.

Lisa of Feathered Empty Nest is very relatable. She is sharing her journey of going gray and she is rocking it!! She shares pictures of her family and her hobby of axe throwing.

What is Your
Empty Nest Super Power?
How to Own Your Nest, Live your Passion, and Love your Life!
Laura,
Thank you for this wonderful newsletter that comes to me every weekend, empowering me each and every weekend. We are a high school Junior away from empty nest, but currently have two boom-a-rang young adult living in our home. Both are exceptionally creative, and exceptionally too-broke for an apartment.
While I never had the opportunity to return home and pursue my passion, I am okay with giving this opportunity. One travels, writes, does beautiful cinematic photography and the other is a professional musician who owns his own music production studio (in my basement)!
I am on a journey myself…as a successful and creative piano teacher, my real passion is writing. I have written a cookbook for my kids, as they leave the nest, with favorite recipes and stories from my childhood and theirs. I am praying about “the WHAT” to write about in this next stage. I am going to check out your sources for inspiration this week. I have a blog, but lately I have tagged most posts as private as I am not ready to bear my soul with the world. Perhaps I should:

Thank you for doing what you do. You are making a difference in my life.
Oh, I LOVE the cookbook idea. Keep writing and connecting through your website. The more we share, the more we find that we are not so different after all. Everyone who reads what I write and especially those who comment or write me make such a difference in my life. Thank you so much for your kind comments.
