I totally get why it feels like a big leap to get help when we’re out of shape in our 40s…

because I did the same with my garden for years!

Ooh I spent a fortune on:

  • treatments,
  • tools.

I spent hours:

  • watering,
  • tending,
  • giving it a wee bit of TLC.

It still looked like crap. The grass would not grow evenly. There was bare patches everywhere :-(

After 3 summers of feeling:

“This is the year!”…

and realizing yet again, this was NOT the year that my grass was going to look nice. I finally just got a fella in to help.

An expert who’d been helping people have lovely lawns for decades, and I gave the guy two tasks:

  1. Please Fix It!
  2. Teach me how to keep it fixed!

Ironically I am that gardener now, but for folks over 40.

If you:

  • are ready to admit you’re just not going to figure this out for yourself.
  • know that you can’t stay consistent without some…
