In this episode of Sole Sisters, we’re diving into the realities, revelations, and routines that come with discovering gray hairs in our 40s! Join us as we share our personal stories, laughs, and lessons on what it’s like to navigate these visible signs of aging while balancing our own sense of self-care and beauty.

We’ll talk about our evolving relationship with hair color, the freedom of embracing (or experimenting with) our gray, and the role self-care plays in feeling empowered at every stage of life. Whether you’re team “cover it up” or team “let it shine,” this episode is a supportive space for anyone who’s ready to embrace aging with confidence and maybe a bit of humor.

So grab your favorite tea or coffee, settle in, and walk with us on this journey of self-acceptance, bold beauty choices, and the undeniable power of feeling good in your own skin.

Gray Hair, Don’t Care: A Journey of Self-Care and Aging Boldly

A wee song about the effects that loved ones can have on you. Not meant to be too serious. With thanks to Chris Dempsey for his peerless production, and to John Lee Hooker for inspiring me by his song "Dimples".

This is a song about getting older and the growing sense of how the number of years remaining is starting feel limited.  Here are the lyrics:

Ode to growing old
Where did life go?
Fleeting now it seems
Starting endlessly
Something changed
The end now in view
Give me a loving heart
It’s a start
To befriend those I know
This is my ode to growing old.

Ode to growing old
Where did time go?
Ticking steadily
Marching to life’s beat
Who am I?
A speck in this world
Give me a knowing heart
It’s a start
To prepare for this road
This is my ode to growing old.

Ode to growing old
Where will I go?
Sleeping finally
No more toil for me
I’m all done
The world fades away
Give me a peaceful heart
It’s a start
To depart from this road.
This is my ode to growing old.

TITLE: LIFE AIN"T WHAT IT USED TO BE
___________________________________________________________________
LYRICS:
(Verse 1)
Life ain't what it used to be
The stars feel dim no light for me
The streets hum low with history
But the echoes fade like a restless sea

(Verse 2)
The sun still rises but it's lost its glow
The rivers run but they move so slow
I see the faces but the smiles don’t show
Time keeps moving yet I don’t know

(Chorus)
Life ain't what it used to be
A broken mirror of memories
Pieces scatter like falling leaves
Holding on to what I can’t retrieve

(Bridge)
Oh the winds they whisper tales untold
Of dreams once warm now bitter cold
I chase the past but can’t take hold
Life's a story left uncontrolled

(Verse 3)
The nights stretch longer the days feel thin
I try to fight but I can't win
The cracks are showing under my skin
Life’s a game I can't begin

(Chorus)
Life ain't what it used to be
A broken mirror of memories
Pieces scatter like falling leaves
Holding on to what I can’t retrieve

Get Old--Get Carefree

LIFESHACKLED PIRATE (Reggae Style)

Together with bassist Lukas Bøggild I played a mini concert at Blågårds Apotek, one of the coziest music spots in Copenhagen. We had an amazing night—even though I’m nursing a sore throat, the music flowed and the vibe was just right. Sometimes it’s those little intimate shows that remind you why you love doing this!

Big thanks to everyone who showed up and shared the moment with us! You make it all worthwhile!
