Getting Ready With Me at 50 + Teaching a Creative Workshop (Real Life Vlog)

In today’s episode of Dionne, Daily, I’m coming to you from my hotel room in Carlsbad, California as I get ready for a full day of teaching and celebrating creativity.

This is a real-life, behind-the-scenes look at what this season of life and work looks like—from applying my makeup at 50 to preparing for a hat painting workshop and being part of something really special.

I’m here for the grand opening and celebration of Debi Beard’s retail store, a creative space she has built and sustained for over 26 years. Being here is a reminder of what’s possible when you stay committed to your vision over time.

In this episode, we talk about:
• getting ready at 50 and embracing this season of life
• teaching creative workshops and connecting with women in person
• the beauty of long-term creative business and community
• stepping into opportunities and showing up fully

This is what a creative lifestyle looks like in real time—imperfect, evolving, and meaningful.
If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like behind the scenes of teaching, traveling, and living a creative life, I’m so glad you’re here.
