WHAT IS YOUR NAME?

Caroline Culleton

WHAT IS YOUR AGE?

53

WHERE DO YOU LIVE?

Brisbane

WHAT DO YOU DO?

Coaching, at uni, domestic goddess, and everything in between

WHAT IS IS LIKE TO BE YOUR AGE?

Busy – crazy busy – I want to do it all. FOMO – smarter than when I was 20, more courageous and care little to what the youth say about me!

WHAT DO YOU HAVE NOW THAT YOU DIDN’T HAVE AT 25?

Something meaningful to say! A husband! Kids! An opinion! A belief in me! The willingness to try anything new just because. My own home with a pool.

WHAT ABOUT SEX?

What about it?

AND RELATIONSHIPS?

Have to say – less exciting. In fact rather dull and domestic. Bordering on dull. Have more fun with girlfriends when I laugh loads, eat well, drink too much and feel a sense of freedom.

HOW FREE DO YOU FEEL?

Getting away and walking in nature. Getting on a plane and flying anywhere. Swimming – it’s quiet underwater. Walking my dog. Driving up a highway in search of a beach to hang out on.

WHAT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF?

My kids. As corny as that sounds I reckon I’ve done a pretty good job there! Jumping out of a plane on my 50th birthday.

WHAT KEEPS YOU INSPIRED?

Trying new things. Coaching my clients who inspire me with their desire to change and be amazing, learning.

WHEN ARE YOU HAPPIEST?

When I am walking with friends and camping. When there are no pressures from anywhere. Where I can just be me.

WHERE DOES YOUR CREATIVITY GO?

In writing – have a blog as well as my coaching site. I used to love painting a few years back – even won a little prize!! But haven’t done that for a while. Should do because it is a good distraction. Love to sing – but usually in the shower.

WHAT IS YOUR PHILOSOPHY OF LIVING?

Honesty, community, connection.

AND DYING?

Peacefully, respectfully,

ARE YOU STILL DREAMING?

Absolutely. The challenge is to act upon these dreams so they become realities – and that may mean putting self first regardless of what other say or want me to do.

WHAT WAS A RECENT OUTRAGEOUS ACTION OF YOURS?

Just bought into a network marketing skincare business because I know the product is brilliant but I am shit scared of selling – ha ha. That sure is outrageous. Watch this space.
