Discover Purple Lady Cathy

From the Heart
Hello
Nobody really tells you that your 50s might be the decade you finally start to work yourself out.
I’m Cathy. I’m a Scout leader, an inclusion specialist, and a woman who recently started moisturising for the first time in her life and genuinely can’t believe the difference. Not just to my skin. To how I feel about myself.
I’m neurodivergent. I spent most of my life thinking I was just bad at the things everyone else found easy. Turns out there was a bit more to it than that.
This is where I share all of it, the Scouting adventures, the inclusion work, the slow and sometimes surprising process of learning to be a bit kinder to myself. The small wins that turn out not to be small at all. Oh, and Reggie and Ronnie, my two pomapoos, who are absolutely convinced they’re the most important part of any of this. They’re probably not wrong.
If any of that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. And you’re in exactly the right place.
Come and join the journey. You can find me on TikTok as Purple Lady Cathy for the everyday real-life stuff, and Scouty Cathy for everything Scouting. I’d love to see you there.
