About Me

Hi there, I’m Lisa…welcome to my blog! Here’s a little about me and why I started Midlife in Bloom.

I’m an empty nester and retired ESL instructor who loves a minimal and modern aesthetic, healthy and active living, and occasional world travel. My time is split between northern Colorado in summer/fall and Scottsdale, Arizona in winter/spring. I know, I know…I’m not complaining!

A perfect day for me would be spending time with my kiddos and grand babies, playing tennis, painting with watercolors, and being in nature. These experiences light me up!

As for style, I gravitate toward elevated, timeless pieces or casual-sporty outfits. I love neutrals, and I’m not really into trendy clothes. Quality, comfort, and style are my criteria when I shop.

I started Midlife in Bloom in 2019 after retiring. Drawing upon my love for beautiful style, my early career in travel and tourism, and my life-long commitment to healthy living, my hope here is to inspire and encourage women over 40 with blog posts on these topics 3-4 times a month.

If any of this resonates with you, consider subscribing here and following me on Instagram (@midlifeinbloom) and Pinterest. I love hearing from my subscribers, so if you have questions or comments, just touch base here. You can also shop my looks on the LTK shopping app.

I appreciate you stopping by!
