Today is my 50th birthday! I have lots of feelings heading into this new decade. Mostly a feeling of gratitude and excitement! A few days ago I asked my friends on Instagram to give me advice as I enter this new era. I received so many messages of advice and encouragement that I wanted to share it with you.
Thank you for being here and for allowing me to share my passion.
Your Best Advice for Turning 50
The 50’s are great, your best looks, watching all the kids get married & beginning to become grandparents. And sex🤣is better.
50’s are the new 30’s
Continue to take care of your mind and body 💕
Be grateful you made it to your fifties healthy. This is the decade that makes you grateful for every day.
I’m 52 and it’s like a light bulb moment all of a sudden you don’t care much you start living your own life without judgment and worry I don’t no how to explain it ! Live life to the fullest we are aging every single day
Fifties are the Best!!! They were great years for me! I just turned 60. I started drinking Silk Soy milk cause it has natural estrogen. I didn’t want to take hormone replacement after Menapause it makes me feel good. I have heard too many things about hormone replacement. Your Young and Beautiful just keep doing what you’re doing! Happy Early Birthday Randi!Cheers!🎂🎉
Oh my goodness. You look glorious. I am 61 and I can just tell you each decade gets better. Such a blessing. Enjoy and shine ever so brighter my friend. 🎂🩷☀️
Life just keeps getting better and better! You have a beautiful Christ centered life and marriage. Amazing children and bonus daughter in laws.
I don’t think you will notice many changes. For me. The changes started around 65, and they take some getting used to. But we know this is the circle of life. How God has designed it.And I think we need him more than ever
I’m 55 and I’m not a fan of the 50’s (hello aging😤) but on a positive note, we’re the “freshman” of the senior citizens! Haha! 😂
Fave decade!!
Do all your fun activities. Tennis, pickleball, hiking, and just anything you like. Because I’m finding in the 60’s that I’m falling apart!
Pay your health forward by making you the priority. Everything you do over the next ten years will benefit you years beyond the ten. I turned 65 in May and am so glad I took care of my health when I could feel myself starting to slack. Btw, 50s are the best!!!
Lift heavy, walk 10K or more, get the CO2 laser take care of face with regular facials. Enjoy every thing n every one. B12 n D3 vitamins check your bone desity.
It is fantastic. Enjoy every minute. Say YES TO EVERYTHING……TRY new things. Choose where you truly want to retire your dream place and buy it and retire at 60. With absolutely everything done as you just want to play.
Don’t take yourself to seriously. It’s okay to laugh at yourself.
Estrogen and progesterone! 50s are so fun! So many things to look forward too!
Say yes as much as possible this year!
Embrace it as you are much wiser and stronger and have so much more freedom! Oh and also, get used to unwanted saggy skin 😂😂
Embrace it! You look amazing, yes your eyes need a lil more help than they used to (but that’s what cute Peepers are for), your brain might get a lil foggy but gosh what a gift (sometimes!), your skincare is on point, if you’re like me, you might also need a little help with hearing (my 50th gift to myself was hearing aids) and just enjoy a live well lived for 50 years! What a joy!
How exciting!!!! Another opportunity to become the best version of yourself! Be grateful to God for each birthday you receive! It’s truly a beautiful blessing! You are very lucky to have it!!! Happy birthday to you!!!! 🎉🥳🍾
Love your life and everyday your given 🩷💖🩷
Enjoy the little things! Spend quality time with your husband and always family first Take care of yourself , eat right exercise… but I think you have that in check already! It’s just a number! You look great !
Don’t let a few pounds creep on you each year. Eat clean, filter your water, go Mon-toxic in skincare. Attitude is everything. Exercise with weights. Faith, family and friends!
50 is fabulous!! I’m 57 now and my 50’s have been full of fun. This is a time in your life where you start to focus more on yourself since the kids are grown and out of the house (most of them😁) focus on your passions and doing fun things with your hubby and friends. And take your vitamins and exercise!
Positivity is the key to so much in life as well as strong faith!
Ha! I just turned fifty! I say embrace it!! The best is yet to come! 😊
Keep being you 😍
Be grateful! It’s a blessing to see 50 now a days. And welcome others to this incredible milestone, so welcome😍. LASTLY, take magnesium 😂🤣😂🤣😂 😘😘😘. Happy Birthday Pretty Lady! #chapter50
I loved Turing 50. I thought it was great!! I reached a mile stone some peopledont get to see. Im now 52 and it just gets better. Im proud when I tell people I’m 52. I’m looking forward to 55. Woohoo!!
Embrace it! Fifty and Fabulous!
I work at Lilly Pulitzer and we have all age ranges on our team. 70+, 50’s 30’s and teens. The gal who is in her 70’s said 50 was her all time favorite age. Generally speaking your parents are healthy, your kids are on their way to adulthood and you’re in your prime. I turn 50 in September and her sharing that really got me excited for the prime of it all. Happy Birthday! You look gorgeous and are clearly in your prime!!
Happy birthday! My advice- seek help for menopause symptoms, keep fit, do all the travel on your wish list while you’re healthy 😊
Stretch work on hip exercises and core.
It’s just a number and honestly it didn’t bother me at all. I turn 60 next month and that just seems so crazy because I still feel young. My main recommendation would be to get to a functional doctor when you hit menopause (it’s the devil).
I’m a hospital chaplain, turning 50 in September. In my work, I see lives cut short all the time. Aging is a privilege! I am so excited to be 50!
Embrace it fully, do the things you always wanted to do. Enjoy life as you never had before. Take care of your body as you usually do and keep thanking and praising God
Exercise!!! It’s important for our body, mind and soul! Also, I stopped caring about what people think. Lol! I don’t listen to the noise.
Accept yourself and keep up in walking nearly every day
50’s are all about wisdom and clarity!! 50’s the new 30. You got this! It’s the 60’s that mentally do a number on you. You have 10 years to go, you good!!!
Hormone replacement therapy the second perimenopause starts!!!
This is such a fun decade. I had a friend tell me (and I didn’t believe it at the time) this is the freest you have ever been. Your children are growing up and becoming your dearest friends. You know exactly who are and don’t have time for any negativity or drama. I had a blast. PS there may be grand babies. And that’s just crazy amazing. Happy 50th💗
Get on all the hormones
Embrace it!
It is just a number! Embrace it and celebrate all you have accomplished and all the good things ahead of you!
Stay as you are,
listen your heart and body.
You look amazing
💮🌸💮🌸💮🌸💮🌸💮🌸
50 is the new 30!!! 😜😜😜
Happy early birthday!!🎂 🩷 Enjoy every moment! Focus on your health. In 10 years you’ll look back and see how young you still are. I turned 60 on July 5th.
You’ve earn this. Enjoy being the best version of yourself .
Best advise: don‘t care about the number, bc you are young inside, and this is the Most important thing. ( I‘m turning 57 at August 3rd- and I don‘t care✨🤍✨🤍✨🤍✨love you, sweet Randi
Enjoy every minute of life
It’s just the start of a brand new life…. More of loving yourself more and listening to your body.
It’s just a number Randi 😍
Happy 50th birthday 🥂Enjoy and be the best picture of YOU 🩷
I am sure you 50th will be such a joyful day! My advice would be to really listen to your body, mind and heart. I found such deep profound emotions coming up turning 50. I thought I was great. Loved my life. However discovered I need more time to appreciate and love me more. 🙂 If that makes sense. I felt a bit of loss with my kids leaving home , starting their own familles. Just be present and in the moment. 🙂 Sorry so long.
I would say just stay vigilant about self care and keep your family close as your kids get older plan activities together
My 50s have been my absolute favorite!🤩 grandbabies come and they are the best!❤️you will love it!
I’m 62… my advice… keep doing fun things with your kids.. keeps you young 🤗
I’m 52 now….. it’s nothing honestly no big deal other than I hate saying the number but I don’t feel my age…. Nothing has changed except of course my arthritis has started 😃😉but I don’t even feel that’s age….some people get it some do not….so anyway just live your best life…. Seems you already do that… 😉✨💕
Enjoy your next phase. I found 50’s to be liberating in the sense that I am really comfortable in my skin.
I’ll be 62 on Saturday and this is our best years! Empty nesters, retired and living the second half of our lives where it all began before the kids, paying for school etc etc !!!!!
I hope you have an amazing birthday week! I am 64 and I feel 30! Take care of yourself mentally and physically which it definitely looks like you do! 🎂🎉💗
Being 50 for me was very freeing! It gave me a sense of independence.
Ignore the number !!!
Happy birthday! It’s just a number and beats the alternative 🤣 I’m 62 and thankful and happy 💃🏼🥳
My dad always says, be thankful to be here, aging is a blessing not allotted to many and it’s better than the alternative ☺️ Happy birthday! 🎉
Enjoy it enjoy all of it. Oh and do weight lifting to keep tone.
They were my best decade!! All my grand babies were born in my 50’s. We were empty nesters and we traveled a ton. I just turn 60 in
January. I started really fretting about it the day I turned 59 and about 6 months the into that year, God whispered in my ear and said…”You GET to turn 60”. Our best friend dropped dead of a heart attack when he was 58. He didn’t GET to turn 60. Enjoy every day… time flies, as you know. I’m sure those that know you best would say you are more beautiful today than years gone by.
I’ve had 5 grandbabies since I turned 50 and it is soooo precious .. you’re going to love what’s coming ..
Look in the mirror
Tell yourself you look young and will always look young
Tell yourself how good you look
(Your cells are listening!)
It’s like instructions to your body to not age too quickly
Sounds flaky, I knowww, but it works 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Started hrt patches and progesterone that changed my life! Sleep is much harder so magnesium is your friend
Seek the Lord in everything! Be His hands, feet and voice in this dark world. Be the light shining on a hill from the platform you have. 60 will come much faster than you want to know.
Oh honey enjoy every second! It flies by! Check your labs, exercise and drink lots of water. Lastly…be unbothered. Happy bday!! 🩷🎂🥳
Fifty is fabulous! I am LONG past that birthday but it was wonderful! I tried some new hobbies and really decided what I wanted to try that I hadn’t yet! I did that again when I turned 60. When I hit 65 next year I am going to add in a few new things to my hobby list! And my travel list!
50’s are (in my opinion) the best years! You raised your family, established your career, much more financially settled and you still look and feel good! When I hit 65 that’s when I started to notice a change in my body, not horrible but just different! Embrace those 50’s and enjoy each year with grace and confidence!
Happy birthday and God bless. It doesn’t matter the age it matters how you feel. Your rocking it xxxxx
I turned 54 this year! I am learning to breathe, enjoy the little things and make great memories with not just the people I love but everyone who share time and spaces with.
