Lisa
November 16, 2018Vivicious, fun, super talented, authentic, genuine and one of the styliest women I know. Lisa turns up at our shoot in gold painted jeans, beaded embroidered singlet top and fur shrug (something she just grabbed on the way out the door) my day just exploded.. An amazing makeup artist, hairstylist, mom, wife and friend.. Lisa leaves a sparkle where-ever she goes.. literally - my studio is twinkling with sequins. Here is her take on being 50+ and being part of my “Make It Possible Campaign”.
I never thought I would get to 50 ( plus) as I always feel 18 on the inside . So to me age is just a number …
I do feel I am in the best part of my life tho..
My 50s have been my metamorphosis from motherhood to menopause to marathons.
It’s been like taming the beast within.
I have always run my own business so I am lucky I create my own daily work environment. The upside is I have the freedom to do what I want within that . The downside is I am accountable to no one … but myself.
I have gathered some meaningful tools along the way to keep me and my thoughts fresh and honest .
I practice being kind to myself and others. When sometimes I don’t feel like it
A daily morning meditation before I reach for my phone
Yoga to stretch my body.
Bubbles for a treat although sometimes too many and gratitude. Gratitude has saved my marriage my relationships and myself.
Thank you Shar for photographing me, I think everyone needs an afternoon with Shar in her lovely studio and a good portrait of themselves.
