When asked why she wanted to participate in Extraordinary: the Over 50 Revolution, Emilie said, “I wanted to see myself through the eyes of an artist. As women age in our society we become invisible. I heard about Maundy\u2019s [campaign] and it seemed like a great way to become visible again, even if only in my own eyes.” <\/p>\n\n\n

Emilie sees opportunity in being over the age of 50. “We can be free of the traps of standard beauty expectations. Leaving the possibility of childbearing, we can reclaim our creative energy and learn new ways to live in our aging skin.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I have put my own well being ahead for the first time in my life. I am healthier than I\u2019ve ever been because I prioritize exercise and diet in a new, body positive way. I left a toxic job right before I turned 50 and have had to reacquaint with myself because that job had been a huge part of my identity.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Growing up, Emilie’s mother was her main role model. She was “a trailblazer and taught me that I was as worthy as any man.” Emilie also paid attention to artists such as Joni Mitchell, Judy Chicago, Georgia O\u2019Keefe, Joan Baez, Nina Simone- and loved their strength and determination to be seen.<\/p>\n\n\n

 The advice Emile would give to women who are younger than her is this: “Life is short, but it is wide. Don\u2019t wait to take those chances. Cultivate areas of your life that bring you joy.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emilie works with teens. She hopes that the work she does helps a few find healing. She hopes that she helps them feel seen and valued. <\/p>\n\n\n
