Sun, sea, and a perfect autumn Sunday in Scotland. What better way to start the day than a chilly dook with friends?

Want to join me for an uplifting and revitalising day with other midlife women too? Last few places available on the Winter Chill & Glow experience - comment GLOW for all the details.

If you’re a midlife woman, craving something MORE in her life, I have to tell you this. There has never been a better time to start creating your own outdoor adventures.

There are so many incredible places to explore, new things to try, and experiences waiting for you.

No matter where you are in life, there are opportunities to get outside, travel, explore, and create adventures you’ll love.

And there’s no better way to start than by trusting yourself, embracing new possibilities, and taking that first step.

It’s why I’m excited to introduce you to my friend Chelsea.

Chelsea Findling has brought together 20+ incredible women and experts for the Adventure Starts With You Virtual Summit, a complimentary virtual summit on trusting yourself, embracing new possibilities, building confidence, overcoming fear and doubt, and getting outdoors and creating adventures you’ll love.

It runs from October 20 to November 1, and I’ll be speaking too! Sharing my story of closing down a successful business at the grand age of 57, and choosing a new path, along with what cold water and nature can teach women about self-discovery, courage, aliveness, and trusting yourself.

So be sure to register, and come say hello when my interview airs on October 23!

COMMENT ā€œSUMMITā€ TO JOIN US

I watched this happen at a wild sauna recently: a guy sprinted out, hurled himself straight into the freezing river, and shouted to his partner, ā€œDon’t think about it, just jump straight in!ā€

Please don’t do this.

When you jump into cold open water, your body experiences an involuntary gasp reflex (cold water shock). If your head goes under while you gasp, you can inhale water instantly. On top of that, your heart rate and blood pressure spike dramatically—triggering panic instead of calm.

Cold water immersion isn’t an adrenaline sport. It’s nervous system training.

The safest and most effective way to enter:
1. Walk in slowly and deliberately.
2. Keep your head and hands out initially.
3. Focus entirely on a slow, extended exhale through your mouth.
4. Let your body adjust breath by slow breath.

You don’t need to shock your body to get the mental clarity, dopamine reset, and anti-inflammatory benefits of cold water. Control and calm win every time.

Have you tried cold water yet, or does the thought of it feel intimidating? Let me know in the comments. šŸ‘‡

The moment you step out of that chilly, fresh water... everything shifts. 🌊✨

If midlife stress, hormonal shifts, or just carrying the weight of everyone else has left you feeling exhausted and disconnected from yourself, you don’t just need a quiet night in—you need a nervous system reset.

Join me on the banks of Loch Lomond for the Winter Chill & Glow Experience:

🌿 Deeply relaxing breathwork to dissolve tension
šŸ”„ The roaring heat of a wild lochside sauna
ā„ļø Safe, guided cold water immersion
šŸ¤ A circle of women to share the experience

No expectations, no pressure—just four hours to let it all go and reconnect with your vitality.

Spaces are intentionally kept small and intimate.

Social media loves a good road to wellness story….but what the science actually says about cold water and improving your mental health and mood might surprise you... šŸ‘€

There are very good reasons why you should wear a hat in the sauna…and it’s not just to protect your hair!
