About me - Midlife Mum

Welcome to my author page. I’m Libby, I’m a mother, and multi-passionate woman who believes life is meant to be lived to the full — one mile, one adventure, and one imperfect moment at a time.

I live near London with my husband, three children, and two cats.

I work from home, but my favourite day of the week is the one I spend volunteering at a local bird of prey centre. Working with these incredible creatures feels like an absolute privilege — and watching them take flight is a wonder that never loses its power to mesmerize me.

I run, swim, and cycle regularly —for mental clarity, strength, and joy.

I have a deep appreciation for the little things: walks, hot chocolate, porridge, paddle boarding, Canada geese, and spending time with my family and friends.

My debut book, Stronger Every Mile, is a celebration of resilience, realness, and reclaiming your sense of self — especially in midlife. Written to inspire women to set themselves a challenge, to push themselves out of their comfort zone, and to embrace their next chapter.

My writing is a reminder that real life is messy, real women are strong, and you don’t need permission to be yourself — or to live fully, boldly, and without apology.
