“Courage is knowing what not to fear.” ~ Plato
By nature I am not the scared type. You could say that throughout my life I have done a lot of really dangerous things with absolutely no thought. Like climbing up the ice-covered frame of the Manhattan Bridge at midnight in the dead of winter. Or riding third on the back of a motorcycle in Germany, touching the ground each time we turned a corner. My college was located in the worst neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY, yet I routinely walked around late at night with no fear. And at almost 70 little has changed. I just do not live in fear because fear kills dreams.

4 Great Meals Made with a Rotisserie Chicken

I keep many different meal ingredients in my home so I can always make something quick, easy and nutritious. One of my favorite things to keep in my refrigerator is a rotisserie chicken. These are readily available at most supermarkets and delis. While true that they are usually prepared with a seasoning high in sugar and salt, but there are ways to improve the nutrition numbers of a store bought bird.

Happy Friday ladies! I’m so excited for our next post of the Ageless Style Series. We are continuing with our fantastic and diverse group of bloggers all styling a similar seasonal trend in a variety of ways. Our fall theme is GOLD!
I must admit — I’m a sucker for metallics. I love all the metals and wear them as much as possible. But I definitely have a preference for gold’s buttery glow. Whether a pair of dainty earrings, a bold statement necklace, a giant wrist cuff, a pair of delicate sandals or a piece of bright metallic clothing, you just can’t go wrong with gold.

How I eat, how I exercise and how I live my life all revolve around my commitment to my wellness.
I’m focused on remaining healthy and maintaining a strong metabolism and healing as I age. I gravitate toward products and brands that elevate my efforts. Too many companies out there make false claims to make clean products that drive real results. The sad truth is that those same companies are often preying on consumers’ vulnerabilities.
When I find a company that holds the same values as I do AND creates products with clinically-proven results, I know I’ve come across the real deal. That is why I was thrilled when I was approached by Pendulum, a cutting-edge company dedicated to making people healthier through microbiome-targeted natural solutions.
