I’m Eve, your host -51 yrs old, single mom to two kids (13yr old Zac, 22yr old Micole) and a Boston Terrier. I write this blog  and the newsletter is a weekly extension of my writing, as well as other things I’d want to share with you over coffee or drinks.



I’ll offer you a fun exploration of what it means to me to be a woman in her second (or third?) chapter. It’s an exhilarating phase, filled with so many aha! moments and flashes of wisdom that I could only have dreamt about thirty years ago. But it’s also a time of some regret, self-reflection, even past shame. So it’s a balance. I laugh, and I cry, and then I laugh some more…and then I wish I had a team of fellow women I can huddle and commiserate with.

I guess that’s what this newsletter is actually for: building connection with women I have not yet met, but who might become friends, however that works in this bits-and-bytes world we live in.

I’ll throw in links to essays and articles written by brilliant women talking about their middle-aged life, health, beauty, relationships, sex, parenting, travel, cooking (I’m a terrible cook!) and meaning. But above everything, I will explore how to find joy in the everyday and amplify the moments that make up the journey.

This newsletter has been a lifetime plus one year in the making! I wanted to start writing it before my 50th (March, last year), but got distracted (aka scared?) and life got in the way. But now I have more clarity, more determination and a lot more va va voom to make it happen. I’m excited!

The weekly newsletter will start arriving in your inbox on Saturday. If you can’t wait, you can visit the blog to read my latest musings or see old newsletters here

Thanks for reading,
