In this conversation, Deborah Grace shares how turning 70 became an invitation to intentional transformation. After decades chasing external achievements and burning out in a high-pressure career, she stepped away at 60. But this milestone felt different. Through a year-long meditative program and sacred personal retreat, Deborah discovered that wellness isn't a destination, but an evolving act of reharmonising with herself.

She reveals how saying no kindly became liberation, how nature became homecoming, and how choosing to see the world through wonder and awe shifted everything. At 70, Deborah stepped into her power as a dangerous old woman, wild and authentically herself. Her story reminds us: we don't have to wait to reclaim ourselves.

Deborah can most often be found in the company of other wild wise elder women, scheming and dreaming.
