I’m not interested in coasting through my 60s.

I still want to work. I still want to be challenged. And I most definitely want to travel, make plans, be with my family and have the energy to actually enjoy all of it.

So yes, my health is part of it.

But really, it’s about building a life now that gives me more freedom later.

And I don’t think that has to look the same for everyone.

Maybe your 60s mean slowing down. Maybe they mean speeding up. Maybe they mean finally doing things completely on your own terms.
I just know I want mine to feel intentional.

Tell me one thing you want more of in this next chapter.

Turns out, your 60s don’t have to be the decade where you start wanting less.

There’s something really freeing about getting to this age and realizing you don’t need to prove much anymore. You just get to be more selective about what deserves your time, your energy and your yes.

Your 60s don’t come with one right way to do life. For some, this season is about slowing down. For others, it’s about building, stretching and saying yes to more. The point is getting to choose what fits you now.

For me, that still includes work, family, challenge and plenty of reasons to keep showing up excited about what’s next.

What are you saying yes to in this season?

A home can look perfect online, but the listing won’t tell you about school traffic, weekend tourists, or how long it takes to reach your driveway at 5 PM.

After 60 years in Nashville, I know the back roads, traffic patterns, and neighborhood nuances that can truly shape your day-to-day life. That local knowledge matters when choosing where to call home. 😉

Over a decade building spec homes in Nashville and I have NEVER had this much heartburn over one house.

Under contract since March. More phone calls, problem solving, unnecessary anxiety and lost sleep than I’d care to recount.

And I’ve built enough homes to know better than to say, “What could possibly go wrong?” ever again.

But she CLOSED. 🙌🏻

That’s the part of building you don’t see in the pretty finished photos. Sometimes getting a home across the finish line takes every ounce of patience, experience and stubbornness you’ve got.

This one took all three..and maybe a little Pepto!

Nothing says thank you like tequila. 😂🍹

When your contractor is working through 100° Nashville heat, you don’t show up empty handed.

You show up with a Paloma.

Consider it job site morale.

In Nashville real estate, relationships are everything. 🤝

You can come in looking for the quickest deal, the best connections, or the biggest profit, but staying power is built differently. It’s built on trust, reputation, and relationships that last far beyond one project.

Especially in development, people have to come before profit. That’s how you build something that lasts in this city. 🏡

I started developing in 2016 with two-unit builds in Charlotte Park and The Nations. Over time, those projects grew into four-unit and six-unit developments, followed by an 11-unit Airbnb project during the pandemic.

As the market changed, I changed with it. Today, I focus on luxury homes for empty nesters and young families in neighborhoods like Green Hills, Belle Meade, and 12 South. By working closely with agents who understand this niche, we’re often able to pre-sell homes before they ever sit on the market.

It took plenty of trial and error to build the process I have today, and now I receive more development opportunities than I can take on alone. If you’re interested in investing in Nashville real estate and partnering on future projects, message me.

Gen X grandmamas are just built different. 😂

One minute I’m dancing to The Wiggles with my G-baby, the next I’m blasting Post Malone.

Although I did have to turn Posty off in the car with Addie the other day because the F-bombs hit a little different with a toddler in the backseat. 😂

The juxtaposition is VERY real.

I’m allowed to love loud music and a Fireball shot, while also loving Praise Baby & Veggie Tales with my babies right? All I know is this Bonnaroo festival ju**ie has absolutely no plans of slowing down.

Basically, Martha Stewart and I are out here proving grandmamas can like rap too.

Tell me I’m not the only Gen X grandmama living like this!
