Keep Your Courage

About the Substack

Through essays, photographs, and notes, I explore creativity, curiosity, and the experience of being a woman in her third act. My motto for this stage is simple: keep your courage. Because fear shouldnโ€™t get the last word.

About Susan McMahon

Fear has shaped much of my life in ways both obvious and subtle which is why courage is everything now.I donโ€™t see my third act as a stage of winding down. I see it as a time of waking up. Keep Your Courage: because fear shouldnโ€™t get the last word.
