Reading: Here’s to Us

What a ride it’s been. We started CoveyClub because we were fed up with women over 40 feeling invisible, that life had dried up and left nothing more for them. We wanted to jump into the next phase of life clear-eyed but excited, and tell the many beautiful stories of how women were doing that. And now, we’re 4280 members strong, a group of smart, feisty, astounding women with a lust for life and a take-no-prisoners attitude. So, because it’s the season of gratitude, we wanted to pause and recognize you: the women we’ve met and brought into the flock, who make us laugh, make us think, and keep us going. Here is just a tiny slice of what our fans, followers, and friends have said to inspire us this year:

“We need to stop treating women like a minority. We are half the population. And, women don’t need to be fixed. We are great the way we are + we have enormous potential that is untapped.” 💪@SScarpaleggia CEO of IKEA Switzerland #EqualityMeansBusiness pic.twitter.com/LlBo61Y8NG

“Not today, Satan. NOT FUCKING TODAY,” I victoriously scream as I sprint out of Target clutching only the one item I needed.

This is not a #metoo moment. Read my letter in this month’s @portermagazine about why, and why it matters what we do next. #incrediblewomen https://t.co/hjmPpTX4jD pic.twitter.com/dH7ZNuNcTM

Life is about the little things: smelling the air after the rain, feeling grateful for this day & opportunity, that first sip of coffee in the morning. You don’t always have to dig deep to find who you are. That beautiful soul is already shining through; you just need to be❤️ pic.twitter.com/zcAPp2UW2y
