Living Deliciously After 50!
About Marguerite Beaty
I am Marguerite, the photographer, artist, writer and, founder at 50 and Rising.
50 and Rising is a community where like-minded women over 50 and over 60 connect and share all sorts of stuff.
I am part Brazilian and part American and have moved around quite a bit. I lived in Brazil, Argentina, Switzerland, New York, Miami, and in various cities in Portugal.
As I’ve journeyed from my 50s into my 60s, my sense of curiosity and adventure hasn’t dimmed one bit, though perhaps it’s taken a more slower vibe!
My latest escapade? Tackling the mysterious world of bridge!
About 50 and Rising
Life took an exciting turn at age 50 when I decided to take time off for a long trip.
I traveled across the UK and Europe and shared stories with many women who were going through similar experiences and feelings that I was.
We talked about being single after 50, divorce, marriage, cooking, hobbies and more. They inspired me to keep going, keep looking and to stay curious!
Now, I share stories about living deliciously after the age of 50.
Join me and grab the ebook for a collection of quick and easy tips and a dash of fun to enrich your life, especially if you’re a woman over 50 and over 60.
