Love this, Sandra. I've never thought of myself as particularly feminine, but at 74, I find joy in smiling and hoping to bring a smile to someone else's life, if only for a moment in time. As I step out of my car at the grocery store parking lot, I seem to say, 'You've got this!'...I add a bounce to my step and a smile to my face, hoping to meet someone's eye who would like to be on the receiving end.
Femininity is an energy. It's not a look or an age. It's the ability to recieve. It's the ability to be gracious. Its the ability to be creative. It's being comfortable with yourself that allows the divine feminine to express herself through you. 🌺
@SHHEMP1 thank you. Many will not get it as women we have been taught to embody so many masculine qualities. And sometimes we need to, so in a sense we have to be chameleons
Ladies, put on your hats and dance,in parks,seashore sidewalks,etc. Put the smile on as Sandra shared. Walk in grace. Sprinkle kindness all around wherever you go. Essentric stretching exercises do wonder for the mind and body. Many men so enjoy seeing women wearing hats. 👒 I wear hats for health reasons and receive compliments very frequently. Thank you,Sanda, for all you do , being you, being real , and so thoughtful. ❤
I will be 74 in March. I am still the young girl who loved to skip down the dirt road. I give no thought to femininity, just feeling joyful and most importantly…I love to smile😊
Sandra, Yours is one of my top go-to channels. The reason is how natural you are.. I purposely avoid the professional type of sites. Clicking on your site is, as you say, like visiting a friend, not a site where you are a business. Thank you Sandra As an aside. I read to prevent us getting an old lady voice is to sing every day. So, each time I walk into the kitchen I break into song .
Thoroughly enjoyed your response Veronica. It is soooo refreshing to visit Sandra and all you delightful ladies in this community. It's a wonderful adventure with always an engaging subject to reflect over. Thank you ❤
Feminity comes naturally if you relax and be yourself. Have the confidence not to try to be what your environment wants. Be who you want to be. You are beautiful 💝
Thank you, Madame for a beautiful Valentine's conversation! ❤You are the epitome of beauty, grace and style -- thank you for sharing your life lessons and wisdom with all of us in your community. To me, survival is a reflection of deep beauty and femininity. As women, all of us have survived so many unique experiences over various decades. Our survival of trials and challenges has given us beautiful strength and made us the warriors we are today.
Im 29 and i dont know why i healed from your video. Life in korea is very tough, i sometimes think that ..maybe when i order,, may i would be a kind of ugly grandma and i lost self confidence time to time. Thank you for sharing video, i never knew this gorgeous video is made by only person!! It feels like i get life of beauty again that i forgot... Thanks
Thank you, Sandra. I became a widow in my mid 50's and I'm now my 60's. A smile is warm, inviting and truly lifts our spirits and those around us. I love this reminder. ❤
We appreciate you more. When my husband and I, who are in our early 80's, find people surprised we're as old as we are they usually say that we don't walk like an old person. So I'd agree good posture is important. I'll have to practice that sway. Sandra, you are still a knock-out, those eyes and that smile do dazzle.
Hi Sandra, your charisma, your inner and outer youthfulness, your radiant smile, your positive attitude, your creativity and your ability to touch people, all this makes you young and feminine. I have been following you here for 6 years and I think you are simply stunning and you will remain so. And that goes for us older women in general. Feeling young inside and staying interested is what makes us feminine. Thank you so much for all your support. xoxo
Just traveling with my partner in Mexico. We both are in our 80 and have lived a unusual life. We still walk miles a day, have always eaten a good vegetarian diet and are quite content with our age. My partner has always loved and encouraged me and i know he sees me as i am and loves what he sees. I have lots of wrinkles as i am a gardener and outdoor woman, but i have never felt that kept him or anyone else from connecting with me. You are so right keep going on, love your talks.
Positive energy I think helps us as we age as this world loves to tell us we’re old and not worth 2¢ but we are worth a million bucks with our life experience knowledge and caring we have so much to offer and your right I don’t think I’m as old as I am oh my body reminds me but my head thinks I’m younger. Thanks for another wonderful video. May I ask at this our community for a few prayers today? I have cancer surgery tomorrow could use some positive prayers n energy thank you ❤
May you be aware of God's blessings tomorrow and forever, Cindy. We are praying for your quick recovery and that you will be even better than you were before.
Thank you Sandra, I'm 65 and still feel inside like I did when I was young. Except now I'm much calmer in myself. Though now I'm not so hung up about my weight, grey hair wrinkly skin. I do speak to people more now as no longer painfully shy. Thank you so much for your video, they are so enjoyable. Have a good week xxx
My new mantra- Mature Femininity! I love everything you said in this video- and I love how you are able to express all of these feelings many of us have about retaining our sense of our selves as feminine and all that implies as we grow older. I feel sad for women I see who seem to have “given up.” I am 72 and I just ordered some very pretty underwear to wear under my new dress for the summer. Pretty underwear is my secret and makes me feel in touch with my womanhood. As always, much love and thanks to you Sandra❤
After watching your video, I said to my mum: "She'd make a good Marilyn Monroe." She responded, glancing at you on the TV: "She does have a look of her."
Such an important topic Sandra. I am almost 68 now, but I remember when I started to feel “irrelevant” and “invisible.” It was hard. I did not understand it. I felt like the same person inside. Several years have passed, and I am more relaxed, confident, and embrace my mature femininity. It’s more about what I feel inside and less about what others see. Thank you for this video! ❤
You look beautiful Sandra radiant We can have femininity be elegant and classy at any age I love and appreciate all your videos have a beautiful week x
Staying as healthy as possible, enjoying self and life as much as possible, is the key. In the past it was expected that women took the back seat and became invisible and some lost their sense of vitality but now it is a wide open present and future to make what we want of our lives :)
Sandra I don’t know if I’ve said this before but, you remind me of my grandma Frances. She was the most gentle soul and I miss her to this day. We are not so far apart in age, you and I, but I see you as my grandma telling me to “straighten your crown dear”. Thank you for that
Thank you for another lovely video. Love that top for Valentine's Day! I turned 69 last month, nearing the big 7 - 0. I've never thought of myself as being particularly feminine, I actually want to look more androgynous most of the time. I wore minimal make-up until I was near 50, seldcm wore florals, ruffles and such, preferring tailored type clothing, but I always wanted it to fit well, accentuate the good parts and minimize, what I considered anyway, the less good parts of my physique. I concentrate on keeping relatively fit and maintaining flexibility and balance so I feel confident. The best compliment I've ever trveived after turning 50 has been "You have a spring in your step and a gleam in your eye." This is always what I'd like people to think when they see me.
Feminine power isn't age restricted! Love this message. Especially if you're single and dating in midlife, feeling attractive inside and out is a superpower. It's about tapping into the innate traits like intuition, creativity, empathy, and compassion. These qualities not only define our feminine energy but also empower us to authentically express ourselves in all aspects of life. Such an important reminder to nurture these qualities within ourselves. 💖
Oh you make me feel so much better about myself. You make me feel like hope, joy still live in me and lie ahead. I am 62 and have struggled as of late with feeling like there is nothing ahead. Thank you
I’ve said this before here, you are so beautiful Sandra!! I am 38 years old currently, I aspire to be like you in all the ways!! I am on my way!! You are the sweetest spirit I’ve ever came across!! If I lived in south beach, I know we would be best friends!! God bless you even more!! 🤍Jenny from North Dakota!!
Thank you so much for this video this morning, I am approaching 40. And as someone who has not settled down yet with a husband and children, I was wondering how I am being perceived in the dating scene. Comparisons that I made to 25-year-olds etc that I would make myself as to how I am perceived by men older than me or younger than me was making me quite nervous to participate and to even being in my feminine energy. I have been told that there is an aura and energy That’s attractive about me However until I heard your video I didn’t fully feel validated as being older and be also being relevant and attractive still. As I was watching it, I was smiling the whole way through. Thank you for being an inspiration and giving me some hope.❤
Love your sweater! You really put your finger on it when you mentioned us being invisible. I am 76 and when I retired I started feeling invisible. I now volunteer at three different nonprofits where I am no longer an “in charge” person, but I show up and know that I am making a contribution. You have inspired me to awaken that feminine person this lovely spring. Thank you for your wisdom and inspiration 💕
Sandra, this came at a perfect time for me. My friend and I retired at the same time. There is only a couple of months between us in age. We have both felt like we have aged since retiring. We chatted the other day and desided that we have become very negitive about how we look. 🥀🥀No good. We have decided to improve our thought life about ourselves and make the best of what we have.🌷🌷 I have sent this video to her and will re watch it myself. Thanks for posting.
It’s so good to reconnect with you and our sisters! Thanks for the encouragement about our mature femininity. I like to be aware and be creative with with the feminine aspects. We are creative beings of light and love and our smile can truly be open hearted and contagious and a blessing to all. ❤
So amazing that this is your topic today. I write a lot of poetry once upon a time, but gave it up years ago. I awoke today with a poem I wrote when I was 14, long forgotten, on my mind. I remembered it all and wrote it down. Amazing how the brain works. Maybe my "feminine energy" was working today.
You are such a sweet lady❤ Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I dont have any grandparents left and my mother passed away 2 years ago. Just listening to you feels so good, almost like therapy and i feel very peacefull. And im realizing how much i need an older woman to talk to. Listening to you though is a good substitute. RU-vid definitly needs people of all ages and niches.
Hello Sandra, I am 39 but when I visit RU-vid, I mostly visit for you! Thank you for being there and being such a wonderful role model for all of us at any age! ❤❤❤
I think women In general don’t know there power. But that phase behind ever great man there is a greater women. Your a fabulous women and have made your way. I celebrate you!!!
I always make sure to walk with a straight back.I love being feminine. I don't want to walk without my back straight but in life we need to hold on to what we have .❤❤❤
You helped me re-examine my life a couple of years ago. Thank you so much for the video's. I spent a year with my aging mother, then a year in Mexico with myself. Mom passed away and I have returned to my own hometown. My children, grandchildren & great grands are happy to have me back, as I am also. Again, thank you
You will never be irrelevant, and invisible, Sandra! You are beautiful, intelligent, and warm. You made me think about my femininity today. This may sound odd, but if I don't have good posture, I don't feel as feminine . Love you, my friend...MaryEllen
Pure Sunshine Sandra! 🌞 Inner beauty radiates to the outside, that calm assurance and quiet strength is impossible not to notice, I ask GOD to help me as I grow older (51) My Grandma was a great example died at 100 years in 2022, a beautiful kind and steady woman, a woman of great faith. I will see her again, some wonderful day. ❤
I appreciate you. I have subscribed to other channels but usually I unsubscribe after a few months. But your channel is one that I will NEVER unsubscribe from ❤
Many thanks for being an inspiration of jill of all trades! A sense of humour, a smile and laughter is very attractive. I think to have a man to verbalise appreciating our feminity is wonderful. I do miss that as i age. One has to accept our age. I agree that some women no matter what their age know how to carry themselves which make them very attractive.
Femininity to me,"Radiate's" from the Inside. No matter What we have Been Through during Our Lifetime, we are still Confident enough to Hold Our Head High, Put a Lil' Pep in our Step, and Put a Smile on our Face. Being Kind as well. Being the Person that We Are, Automatically Come's Shining Through. Y-O-U Sandra, are a Good Example of All of This. Much L💜VE.
You are so beatiful,Sandra. Thank you for the wisdom and experience you share with us. I am 33 and I am really glad I have found your channel. God bless you.
Sandra, simply put, you are lovely. There isn’t much else to say. You are warm, centred, pleasant and lovely. Your content evokes a sense of calmness in me, I feel reassured that everything will be alright. I’m very sad about Arthur’s passing. He seems like a such a character. Thank you for educating us on life.
Thank you Sandra for such a great video. You are one of my favorite Utubers. I am a single 72 year-old and we seem to have like minds. It is like talking to a friend when I watch your videos. I have always had a feminine personality, and I will continue to be feminine as long as I am here. Happy Valentines Day❤
Thank you for this beautiful message Sandra... such wise words. It sure has lifted my spirits. I had been feeling a little low, but after listening to you, I feel so much lighter. God bless you, beautiful Lady ❤
Dear Sandra, first I will say, that you look so pretty in this lovely pullover 💝. I like your words and the wonderful music at the beginning and your wise words after this. All the best for you and the community.
Thank you for such an inspiring video. I’m one of your viewers who is not yet 50, but you’re an encouragement for aging gracefully in this day of youth obsession. BTW, you look fabulous in this sweater and lipstick too!
👋 Sandra you are the epitome of femininity ⚘️ thank you for all your down to earth common-sense advice that you always give, love listening to you. Your name says it all ❤ One of my wonderful Dad's sayings to me as I was growing up was "Jan love is trust & trust is love but your name is everything"....how true & right was he ❤
Sandra, my children were your avid fans in northern IL! The oldest of seven will be 70 this year - our twin girls were born when my husband was in Korea (1954). One twin died of colorectal cancer less than a month after her father did of dementia (LBD) four years ago. We were married 65+ years. Since then I've lived in a retirement facility where everyone has been - or is going through - similar heartaches.. God bless you for sharing your experiences and being an example of beauty, grace and courage. I think a smile enhances feminiinity exponentially!
Sandra just found you. You are such a sweet soul. I totally agree. I'm sixty three. I still walk the same. I try to dress in a feminine way. It's the way we carry ourselves. Yes, a smile goes a long way. I think taking a dance or yoga class is another way. Taking a long bubble bath as a treat is very feminine. There are lots of little ways to tap into our Femininity. Thanks for sharing.
❤ love your approach. Let us be truly thankful for every breath we take & let us walk in the light of God's word. Let us walk with a spring in our step. 🥰 Thank you Sandra for all your love & care. Femininity & romance is beautiful. x
