The Silver Legacy Journey

50 Plus Travel & Lifestyle Blogger

The Silver Legacy is a name I call myself as a tribute to my mother who transitioned in 2000. She had such beautiful, silky, silver hair. I realized that my silver hair is her gift to me – my legacy.  I am The Silver Legacy and I proudly embrace my natural silver tresses and everything else that comes with the privilege of aging.

It took me 50 years to return home to my birthplace, and I have vowed to seek out and embrace as many travel experiences as possible. Travel piques my curiosity about people, culture, food, languages – LIFE!  In am on this intentional journey to live my authentic life and to encourage others to do the same through this travel blog.

Life Coach

After my divorce, it took me years to recreate a life that I now love!

I believe that when I celebrated the 50th anniversary of my birth in 2015, a sense of  boldness and freedom came over me. I realized I don’t need anyone’s permission to do anything I want to do in this life. The legacy of LIVING OUR BEST LIFE is the greatest gift we can give ourselves and our loved ones. I decided to become a Life Coach and Mentor to help other women reach their personal and professional goals sooner than later. My coaching sessions focus on creating a greater sense of balance in the eight areas of wellness. I look forward to connecting with YOU when you are ready to invest in yourself and create the life you want to live in whatever season of your journey!

Peace and Love 💖

In Her Own Words

Last month, Jessica Chia, Beauty Editor for Allure magazine, reached out to me on Instagram. She asked if she could interview me about my natural silver hair journey for the July 2018 issue. Being a woman who is open to the serendipity of life, I said, “YES!” We had an engaging conversation about my transition from relaxer to natural and the reasons why I embrace my natural silver as a lifestyle choice. It was great FUN!

Yesterday, the FREEDOM Issue was available on newsstands!

I purchased my copy today! Three different women, three beautiful natural hair stories. Turn to page 30 to read more about my natural hair journey. This is such a cool experience. I am embracing every moment!

I hope you are inspired by our stories! Enjoy In Her Own Words!

Share your thoughts about your natural hair journey in the comments below! I’d love to hear your stories!

Peace and Love,

A Scavenger Hunt for LOVE!

On our road trip to the Lavender Harvest Celebration we stopped at a Virginia rest stop with a LOVEwork installation! I love these pop up artworks. I always take a picture when I find one!

The Virginia is For Lovers organization is on a mission to prove

Love is at the heart of every Virginia vacation!

The giant “LOVE” artworks will pop up in many different and unexpected places across Virginia. Join me on a scavenger hunt for LOVE this summer!

Check out the map to find more LOVE around Virginia! I would love for you to post your photos in the comments of this post or send me an email with the photo! It would be so cool to see how many signs we can find! #LOVEVA

Bloom Where You Are Planted

I am in the midst of restructuring my life so that I can earn an income by combining my natural gifts with my creative expression.

As I was returning our recycle bin to the backyard, I noticed some blossoms budding and blooming.

Right now, my life goals are in the smallest bud stage. However, by this time next year, I will be in full bloom!
