As a 72 year young designer/artist who has led an alternative life I feel what you are experiencing as you travel through a major transition. I hear you. If I could go back in time I would tell my younger 50 year old self that personal feminine empowerment would guide and help me, keep me confident and excited about my life.

“It’s like a reflection in the mirror of a life I could maybe have if I’m bold enough to claim it.”

For years I was never bold enough. I would look at others a decade younger than me doing their thing and I would feel inspired but also envious at their ability to put their words out there and seemingly not giving AF - so this sentence resonated with me. It’s only now, in my mid-40s, I’m feeling that feistiness, that drive, and yes - anger- to be bolder and to go out there and grab it. It’s taken me a long time.
