Loved this topic. I’m sure you helped a lot of people. I remember asking my divorced Mother if she ever felt lonely. She answered…. “Hell no, I do whatever I want , spend my money the way I want, I enjoy my children , with nobody to answer to except God, why would I ever want to remarry, just to take care of man? No thanks!”. I laughed so hard at her response. I was in my 30’s And my mom was in her her 50’s at the time of that conversation . Well my Mom is now 93 years old never remarried and is still quite strong,healthy and happy .

I’m 35, recently divorced with three kids. It’s honestly a relief to no longer be married to a spouse that added to our plate instead of being a helpmate as we promised each other. I felt I was always the one being “flexible” as he called it. I actually have less anxiety and more time for myself when he actually picks up the kids. My kids are young and it was not worth staying for the kids. The kids seem happier that I’m not as stressed.

One of the more striking things about your house vlogs is how *at peace* you seem. You are embracing this new (and I'm sure a little scary given how long you were married) time in your life and you're doing so with SO MUCH GRACE. I'm not divorced (or married for that matter lol!) but I'm sure you're an inspiration for women going through separation and divorce to know that there is life after a big phase of your life ends. I think this is such an important message you are showing to young women, especially, because it's so easy for the world to tell us that our value is based on the man we're coupled with. This is so much more than just a skincare and makeup channel.

Confession time, I kept wondering over the last years if you were going to trim your hair short because “society says you can’t have long hair after such&/such age.” I think your long hair is stunning, and it’s even more impressive to me knowing you do almost all the maintenance of it yourself; but I knew there were comments etc about it and I wondered if & when you would address this or cave in & cut the hair. I’m so glad that you didn’t cave to the pressure and I love your response to these comments. I agree that everyone should do what makes them happy. It’s 2021, can’t we say F off to those stereotypes about what we have to do with our bodies & when?

This was a great video. I completely understood when you mentioned about how we as women, mothers and wives have given so much of ourselves to raise a family keep a home and run a business. I was married for 28 years. I recently went through a divorce in the past few years, sold my big home that I raised all 3 of my sons and a lifetime of memories and picked up and moved to a new state. I went through that mourning period and it isn't easy. I left behind all my neighbors that I lived so closely together with and we all had our children around the same time. I packed up and picked up and went down to Florida. My 2 youngest sons came along with me, but now they are starting to look for a place of their own.. It is all going to be okay and I know that because I like myself and I can rely on myself. I am not saying I don't have my cry every now and again because I do. Keeping yourself busy is a plus and being okay with yourself is another huge plus. I have a girlfriend that is newly retired and she is also divorced an let me tell you she has turned into this serial dater that I honestly don't think she is happy. She just doesn't know how to be alone. I think that being divorced and being able to adjust to this new life we have is learning how to just be our own person again. I commend you on your attitude and I don't think you are being selfish at all. We have given most of our adult lives doing and being there for everyone else. This is a time to reconnect with our own identity. My oldest son still lives on Long Island and I recently went back and spent the last 5 weeks there being with my granddaughter. I visited old friends, and family and it was really nice, but I will be honest I was very excited to get back to my nice quiet life down in Florida. Keep doing you Angie you are doing a great job!

Just to footstomp your discussion on menopause -- we really need to be our own best advocates. Into menopause, I had a long visit with my family practitioner, who seemed to think that lubricants were going to suffice. A good hour into my visit (he stepped out of the room a few times, I think, to fact check me, LOL), I had a prescription for the supplementation that I'd advocated to receive and that has helped in ways lubricants (or antidepressants!?!) never did or could. Our generation got caught up in an evolving science pendulum swing -- our moms getting hormones at high strength by rule; our generation being told to tough it out. It really isn't one rule for all women (some with a history of breast cancer may wish to handle aging differently) -- we have to help our doctors know our circumstances to get the right regimen for each of us.

I got a lot out of your information on menopause and will definitely be looking up NAMS, as well as Dr. Barbie Taylor and the Hormone Health Doc. 🙏🏻 I LOVED your response to being asked if you were dating. You are an inspiration on so many levels. Thanks for sharing so much of your life and helping so many of us in the process. ❤️

Its been an eye opening experience after my divorce and I'm a better person for learning to do things by myself and for myself.

Thank you for sharing Angie, and for being vulnerable with your experienced with being divorced in your 50’s. You’re right, its an epidemic and super tough to go through. I think there are so many women who are unhappy but fearful of making that big change to let go and move forward seeking to find fulfillment and happiness. I think it’s important to be so honest with others’ as they consider doing the same, so thank you for your honesty and encouragement

Thanks so much Angie. I echo what’s been written here already about how lovely and inspiring you are. I’m 8 months post-divorce after a 25 year marriage and it’s been a struggle. My ex turned into someone I didn’t recognize after our initially amicable split. 2 years of pain and ugliness destroyed my confidence…my spirit really…and I’m still trying to climb my way out to find the strong, light the world on fire person I used to be. Thanks for the pep talk and for giving me hope that there is happiness and joy on the other side of this. ❤️

Hi, Christine! I read your comment and I could have written it, myself. I am about a year, post-divorce after a 25 year marriage. We have six kids, most are adults, now (ages 19, 21, 23, 25), and our younger two are 12 and 14. I voluntarily gave my ex-husband custody of our 14-year old son, because he said he wanted to live with his father. That about killed me, because I will not see him more than a few times a year (my ex moved from Pennsylvania to Florida). I am raising our youngest, a daughter who is 12. My ex is a narcissist and destroyed my spirit. I am wondering how I will ever trust, again. I just wanted to say you're not alone. I, too, have been encouraged and inspired by Angie. I am thankful for any woman who is brave enough to share her story. Hang in there......we will be okay! Peace to you and Happy Thanksgiving!

I resonate with what you said about your confidence and spirit was destroyed. Before entering into a relationship about 2 years ago my confidence was so high. I was fun and full of life! My ex just drained me. I'm in the process of rebuilding as well.

Hi Angie, a couple of years ago looking for tutorials on how to makeup eyebrows I found you, and although I am subscribed to 3 or 4 other beauty channels since then, I have to confess that yours is the one I follow more regularly. I really like the way you approach the different topics, your work on compiling variety information, your naturalness, and of course your spirit. Many of the products that I have incorporated into my beauty routines have been thanks to your advice, and they are doing their job!!! I have to tell you that you are not only my beauty guru, you have also become one of the mentors that have inspired me to face with positivity and faith in myself different changes in my life, coincidentally these last 2 years. So thank you very much for your work, I hope everything continues to go very well for you after the significant changes you have have gone through lately. And also hope you will continue for many more years offering us your comments, reviews and some recipes too!!! Warmest regards from Madrid - Spain

Now I am a kind of beauty guru for my friends, trying to promote this routine and mentioning you every time! And every time I am feeling down and ugly and old ( I am 48), I visualize you and your sunny face and I think of your good vibe and stamina to do so many amazing things and I say to myself - you cand do it!

Angie, I said it recently, but I’ll say it again - I am so envious of your new life. I am so unhappily married, but it’s (at least currently) easier to stay with the status quo, for many reasons. I have three kids, with the youngest in 10th grade, about to turn 16 (thank god he’ll be able to drive himself wherever in the hell he wants to go!). The older two are still living at home. We have a large house (and are so fortunate to have good incomes) so there’s been no motivation to scoot them out the door. They both have jobs and keep mainly to themselves. I live in a boarding house essentially. It’s a great life by ALL measures, except the dead marital relationship. Lots of ignoring and quiet. It’s embarrassing that I am content living in this nightmare. So I live vicariously through you because it is my dream to live alone and WITHOUT a man. Dating?! Why on earth would I ever bother?! I just want my house to be mine again. Wow. I’ll stop now.

Hi, I was in your shoes 7 years ago. I recommend getting your divorce attorney lined up now and starting to keep copies of all financial documents coming through the house. That way when you are ready to file, you will feel completely prepared and confident. That is how I did it and I literally just got my divorce finalized 2 weeks ago. I am loving living alone. It is such a growth experience. Don’t ever share with your husband that you are preparing, Even if you are super angry and fighting with him. This is the best advise. Good luck.

@@tishamonroe7418 HI, I asked one wealthy friend and they recommended the best attorney n the area. My attorney was a killer but he respected my need not to add more drama to my life and do a court battle. Just having the big gun on your side was enough to make my husband cooperate. :) It gives you peace of mind knowing that you have a plan and ultimately will move on in your life and be happy. But getting started now with copying documents is very important. Give them to a family member you can trust. Don’t keep them in the house. Something else I did was get a small storage unit and gradually move out all my family photos and videos into it. These were my most prized irreplaceable possessions and I knew he would try to take them from me, Have a plan. Be prepared. It is empowering. 👍

Your comments about being perfectly content "doing yourself" now: 100% on-point. Any viewers who found those comments "selfish" and cannot wrap their minds around focusing on themselves when the opportunity/time in life arises, would benefit by a mindfulness practice to figure out why that's so uncomfortable, and possibly therapy. Life is not exclusively about doing for others, to the exclusion of one's self. Those who exclusively care-give, to the exclusion of developing their unique interests and taking good care of the one body, mind, and spirit they were born with, are depriving the rest of the world of part of their light that was meant to be shared.

What facial exercises do you do? Years ago I did undereye exercises by Carol Maggio, and after 3 weeks, I had no bags (at 35). Unwisely, I immediately stopped doing them. So now 20 years later I'm trying to get back to that delightful no-bags, fewer undereye wrinkles space. I see results after a few weeks but need to keep going still. You look so fabulous, and have used relatively few "procedures," I would think you must do facial exercises! :-)

I loved this video especially the end! I was in a long relationship in my mid 20’s to my mid 30’s. We never married and I ended it. I knew if we got married we would divorce. Rocky relationship. I was by myself for 5 years. I really needed that time for me. To get to know myself again and find my happiness. I found it and then out of left field I met my soulmate. I wasn’t looking at all. We married when I was 41 and he was 43. We have been married 14 years and it has been bliss. I am so happy I gave myself those 5 years to be by myself and love myself. Good luck to you Angie. I wish you so much happiness and peace. ❤️
