There are days when life feels like it’s moving fast-forward in midlife. You’re answering emails, running errands, showing up for everyone else and somewhere in the middle of it all, you slip to the bottom of your own list.

That’s why I’m so excited to share the It’s Your Turn Bracelet, created in collaboration with Wendy Hively and Madison Hively of Charlie Madison Originals.

It’s more than jewelry. It’s a wearable reminder that you get to take your turn—every single day.

The Story Behind the Bracelet

I met Wendy—a scientist, veteran Navy spouse, and founder of Charlie Madison Originals—through the military spouse community. She’s spent decades blending professional life, entrepreneurship, and family, all while giving back to military nonprofits.

When we talked about creating a piece together, we both knew it had to feel meaningful.
Something you could glance at on a hard day and instantly remember what matters most.

Wendy’s design includes a small leather knot—a nod to her Navy roots, but also a powerful symbol of connection and presence. She calls it an anchor to your present moment.
Like tying a ribbon around your finger—only more beautiful, and far more intentional.

Claim Your Daily Anchor

In my coaching, I often talk about finding anchors—small, physical reminders that bring you back to your why in the middle of life’s noise.

For some women, that’s a sticky note on the mirror. For others, it’s a mantra saved on their phone.
For many women in midlife, it’s something they can feel—grounding, steady, and close.

The It’s Your Turn Bracelet can be that anchor for you.

When you see it on your wrist, let it be your cue to pause, breathe, and ask yourself:

"What’s one small way I can take care of myself today?"

Because you don’t have to wait for the perfect time or the perfect plan.

Your turn starts in the quiet, ordinary moments you choose yourself.

You can get your own It’s Your Turn Bracelet through Charlie Madison Originals.
Whether you wear it alone or stack it with others, let it be a gentle nudge throughout your day:

You matter. You get to take up space. And it really is your turn.

A Conversation Worth Hearing

Wendy and I sat down for a heartfelt chat about the inspiration behind the bracelet, the reality of saying yes to yourself, and why community matters so much in seasons of change.
