Welcome! I’m Kristin and I’m happy you’re here!

Midlife visionary, lifestyle blogger, and Certified Coach helping women rediscover themselves, embrace joy, and step fully into this vibrant chapter of life. I live midlife fully with sass, style, and adventure—and I’m here to share fun & exciting journey with you!

Thriving

After 20+ years of giving my all to family, and life responsibilities, I’ve learned how important it is to refill your own cup and reconnect with who you truly are. Midlife is the perfect moment to pause, reflect, and reclaim your identity—because thriving in this chapter isn’t about slowing down; it’s about stepping fully into your power, confidence, and possibilities..

Taking Midlife by Storm

I’m making the most of Midlife and sharing it here! My lifestyle blog is where I write about self-care, personal style, health & fitness, travel, home decor, hobbies, and everyday adventures. Brian and I explore Utah every weekend, discovering hidden gems and making memories, and we also have big travel plans—Leavenworth, WA; Charleston, NC; Pigeon Forge, TN—just a few stops on our ever-growing list.

As a Certified Coach, I help women in midlife rise above routines and responsibilities to create a life full of clarity, balance, and joy. Through goals, mood & vision boards, coaching, and creative tools, I guide women to embrace self-love, confidence, and authenticity. Midlife isn’t about slowing down—it’s about stepping fully into your power and possibilities.

Embracing the Empty Nest

My Family

I’ve been married almost 20 years. We blended our families into a “yours, mine, and ours” home, and we love all seven of our kids as our own. Each of them has taught me lessons in love, patience, and celebrating the little victories—lessons I carry into every adventure, goal, and creative project.

We also experienced the unimaginable loss of our oldest daughter in November 2020, just 34 days after her leukemia diagnosis. Her absence is felt every day, and in her memory, I launched 9th&Mayne Illustration on Etsy. Her spirit inspires us to live life fully, creatively, and courageously.
