Hi, I’m Quincy
and I am thrilled that you’ve stumbled upon my little corner of the internet.
Chicago-born, bred, and always chasing dreams. As a blogger and project accountant in the construction industry, I’m all about navigating life’s twists with a blend of humor, resilience, and creativity. I’m a proud Sagittarius—adventurous, fiercely independent, and forever exploring new horizons.
At 43, with a 24-year-old son and two nieces I helped raise, I’ve spent most of my adult life nurturing others. Now, as an empty nester, I’m embracing self-rediscovery and reigniting my passion for writing with Journey with Quincy. This blog isn’t just my story—it’s a community for African American women over 40, offering insights on self-care, tips for navigating life after 40, and plenty of laughs along the way. If you’re looking for a space to rediscover yourself and find support, you’ve found it.
When life throws obstacles my way, I tackle them with a smile, a journal entry, and a dash of creativity. I’m all about finding balance—whether it’s between essential oils, meditation and grounding or knowing when it’s time to call in modern medicine. Because sometimes, you just need both.
When I’m not crunching numbers or crafting stories, you can find me searching Pinterest for home decor ideas, journaling, researching natural remedies or vibing at open mic nights—especially when hip hop and R&B are on the menu. I also have a not-so-guilty pleasure: I love listening to YouTube commentators review trash shows that I don’t actually watch. Family is everything to me—they’re my rock, my inspiration, and often the source of the stories I share.
Looking ahead, I envision Journey with Quincy evolving into a go-to resource for women over 40, with expanded content on wellness, fashion, and personal growth, and perhaps even hosting annual events or workshops to connect and empower our community. So, if real talk, a good laugh, and stories that feel like a heart-to-heart with your bestie are your thing, you’re in the right place. Welcome to Journey with Quincy.
Embrace the Journey, Rediscover Your Magic!
