Carol
My body is a bit lumpy and wrinkly. I had a very abusive childhood; 50 years of silence; recently 5 years of court appearances. My brain is my power. Had 2 beautiful children, happy husband. Great memories of sexuality, now mostly now embrace + support. Found retirement a challenge as I had not considered how my moon, my employment + career impacted on my sense of self. I was a little lost. Now I embrace my power as a woman, a friend, a wife, a mother and sibling. And my newly discovered golf games.
Enjoyment of life
The circle of power revolves around us.
Flower
My power is nature and growing flowers and vegetables. The black dot represents negative thoughts in the background. My bare feet mean freedom.
The fighter
I had a very hard life for many years. But now I have a wonderful husband, and he makes me feel well and safe. Somehow, I got through!
Rosa
I just want to be healthy, happy and strong.
Amazingly beautiful body
My power is in my hands. The power to change is within me – I have a strong voice and believe in voicing my opinions openly to be heard, to bring about a change – so older women are treated with more respect and equality, same as older men and not as lesser beings.
