Tina Romie Podcast—50’s The Better Half

On November 17, 2020, I wrote this poem inspired by the election in which the first woman of color, a Black Women, was elected, Vice President of the United States. Fast forward, four years later, I share this poem in this brief podcast message, sharing the words I felt factually and colorfully describing us, Black Women.

I purchased a copy of Chakra Affirmations Harnessing The Power Within, written by Author: Kay Marlene, several weeks before my 60th birthdate. One of my practices leading up to this magnificent new year was to intentionally get on my knees to pray when I rise and before going to bed. It was supposed to be a 30-day practice, however, it did not end and is now a daily routine. I feel great getting my day started with prayer and endin...

Big sister decided to do something different for her 62nd birthdate. The lady lioness born on the first day of August, invited a few people to join her in an adventure as she reminded us that we are "Toys R Us," Kids as we set off for a Road Trip to a neighboring village where an amusement park and other cool attractions were nearby, and of course we brought along plenty of wine.

Still trying new things, still working towards being better, still creating and being creative, still relevant.

Exactly three years ago, during the height of the pandemic, on New Year's Eve, during a planned FaceBook Live, I announced my podcast to my family and friends! My son-in-law deejayed and my oldest daughter and I wore a gown for the occasion, a shut-in- NYE party. Now at the top of my third year, the year preceeding this one was a period of major shift.

Friendships matters at any age, from kindergarten to present, I remember and acknowledge those who were and are still or currently good friends to me, from then to now.

I am always looking for ways to improve my wellness. Yes I'd heard about intermittent fasting, but it kind of moved into action by accident. Press play and listen to how my discipline of this practice started and how it's all playing out. Does it work?

Wellness is not only relevant to good health, but it's synonymous.  Today, wellness clubs have become a phenomenon as new health spas spring up in the DMV area. 

I had the most wonderful experience at a hair spa! It had been more than a decade since I'd gotten professional hair care services but today was the day.  Also, check out these 2022 stats.  I'm thankful and impressed.

So much has happened over the course of several months, from celebrating my new year from 9/23-10/31, contracting COVID and OMG Thanksgiving pie. But there is always a plan. Tina Romie's rule #1 Just move! Realign and focus. Join me for a conversation about two great new tips and adjustments to help keep us moving and always focusing on gaining nothing but results, not pounds. 

Do you ever stop to think about the importance of getting proper rest? It may not have been a priority when younger, however,  as we age it becomes vital to our health and wellness. The lack of obtaining sufficient  sleep can take a toll on your mental and physical health if you don't manage time for it. Can you relate?   

We all have purpose.  Sometimes we think we know exactly what that is,and most times we are correct.  Other times we may miss the mark, but regardless in due season when it's your time I believe your purpose is revealed.
