CONSULT THE
MIDLIFE MIDWIFE™
|
|
Since I found you, you have birthed within me new ideas, wonderful emotions (mostly happiness) and awe. I am not only in mid-life but my only child is graduating from HS and I have lost my business. I still don't know what the next chapter will be and most of the time I am afraid. You have been the calm in my storm so often and I love you for that.
- Judy, FL
Are you looking for meaning, moxie, magic & majesty in midlife?
Consult The Midlife Midwife™
The transition from Maiden and Mother to Queen and Empress can be a difficult one, fraught with hard lessons and lots of loss. It takes great determination and courage to confront and embrace the changes brought about by the midlife passage.
It can be really helpful during this confusing time to have the inspiration, advice and encouragement of a counselor/coach/mentor - someone who has been there and done that and is ready to help you do the same.
Queen Mama Donna offers upbeat, practical and ceremonial guidance for individual women and groups who want to enjoy the fruits of an enriching, influential, purposeful, passionate, and powerful maturity.

Difficult times have helped me

that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever.

Letters In Response to the MARCH 2018 Issue:
Love the photo with the letter to your 12 year old self, and loved the news about the Teen Queens - I hadn't seen that before: what a great protest.
Love,
- Glenys, Australia
So fabulous! Always appreciated! Thank you!
- Camille, CA
Fabulous fabulous and wonderful.

Wonderful!!!! Thank you!

Letters in Response to the Friday 13 newsletter:
Donna, thanks for this article! Wish I could have read it when I was growing up in Greece long ago!! Instead, I remember singing (with the rest of my friends) a Greek famous popular folk song I grew up with and sang since I was 10 years old!!
"Today is the thirteenth of the month, accursed day!
I want to see NOBODY, not even to say good morning!
When the 13th day of the month dawns, I do not dare get up,
I lock all doors and windows, but still cannot close my eyes
Cannot go back to sleep again!
They call me superstitious--but fate had it thus :
On the 13th of one month I became an orphan
And on the 13th of another month
I became a widow too!...."
!!!!! "
Nobody told that little girl anything about the Goddess, even though the Greek Goddesses were all around us!
- Charoula, OH
Lovely, Donna-it's my birthday and I've always especially loved it when it falls on a Friday. Seems so witchy. So reading your piece was like getting a birthday card. Thank you! Love,
- Vicki, CA
Good writing like always, and interesting. In Italy 17 is the unlucky number, etc so it's not necessarily cross cultural, and 13 can be unlucky or lucky in cultures. For me, it's the feminine number so I love it. Love to you shamanic healing woman always.
- Michael, Greece
Donna, this essay on 13 and Friday is so well researched and well written - so darn good - that I'm jealous. I wish I'd written it. You go, girl! I always tell people that Friday the 13th is a Goddess Day. Bright blessings!
- Barbara, CA
Wishing you great good Mazel! A lovely and inspired read and respite along the miracle path.
- Michael, NY
Fabulous post. Thanks Donna.
- Deborah, NY

Please send your good news, achievements, accomplishments, successes and celebrations so that our international circle of sovereign sisters can send you blessings and accolades.
And we are glad to so. It is a joy and a privilege to share in the fortune of another woman. I recently heard Oprah say the saddest thing ever - "The hardest thing about being successful is having someone to be glad for you."
It takes a centered and confident Queen to break that pattern. There are 60 million thrones out there. One for each of us. There is plenty of purpose, passion and power for us all. May we use it well!
