Letters of Love

One of my greatest pleasures is sending long form letters of love (a more accurate way of describing them because they rarely qualify as an actual ‘news’letter!) to the middle years women who subscribe to receive them. I don’t take it lightly when I am given the privileged position of being invited to drop gently and directly into your inbox (and if you like the sound of that then do sign up to receive them at the bottom of this page). Every now and then I share them below too - so that they are easily found whenever you feel like luxuriating in a long read that has been written for you, with love.

Kind Words about my Letters of Love

“I honestly think you’ve started something really special. I don’t think this stage of life has ever been really discussed in this way. And with such support and guidance. It’s a huge thing. I have felt like things are unraveling a bit for me at the age of 46, BUT this really has given me some sort of anchor. Thank you.”

“Gosh Pip, this is so powerful and moving... I barely read any of the newsletters I sign up to and now I already can’t wait for your next. Thank you for this endeavour which feels so important and nourishing.”

“I find the information and links in your newsletters so rich, they keep my mind active for many days, if not weeks afterwards.”

“Spot on with the relevant content, right down to the article about histamine and hormones which couldn’t be more timely! Thank you, I look forward to the next one.”

“It is truly a joy to read - moving, beautiful, soul uplifting and full of grace for some of the tougher things life throws at us.”

“What a lovely newsletter... Your words about rituals to mark loss really struck a chord with me.”

“A very beautiful newsletter full of love and inspiration. It is truly a cup of joyful and moving words.”

“Your newsletters are the only ones I’ve ever read to the end and they really resonate with me. They make me think. And comfort me. They also make me feel more hopeful about this stage of my life. Thank you.”

“I think you have a book in you with your newsletters. I hope you write one one day.”

“Pip - this is marvellous. I rarely read long newsletters but I read yours. Don’t let a copywriter take away your voice - it is special. Great advice on beds and sleeping... This is a catalyst for good Pip - bravo!”

“Loved it. So thought provoking and accurate. So many positives to take from this interview.”

“Thank you for an awe-inspiring email. So much wise content and such joy ahead for the Middle Years Monday women. It was a feast for the soul.”

Is there a place for ritual in our middle years?

I woke up a few mornings ago thinking about ritual and ceremony – and with a pull to write to you about these things. I hope that you may find something of use in my thoughts and reflections. In my experience, when ritual is ‘done’ to us it can be awkward and disenfranchising and alienating (I had a Catholic upbringing that included plenty of rituals that fell into these categories for me). But when we are empowered to create personal rituals for ourselves and each other – rituals that feel truly authentic and mark a passage from one place to another – it can be the most wonderfully potent vehicle for expression, healing, celebration and intention…
