Welcome to Wildflower & Lavender Notes, my little corner of the internet where I share life’s lessons, reflections, and ongoing adventures. I’m Layne Tinsley, and I’m honored to have you here as I evolve through my 60s—continuing to learn, grow, and embrace life with intention.
This blog is my journal of becoming—rooted in wisdom and still blooming. Like a wildflower, I’ve grown in unexpected places, and like lavender, I’ve found strength in softness, calm in change, and beauty in the quiet moments.
By nature, I’m curious, grounded, and introspective—yet always seeking new experiences that challenge and shape me. I’m the kind of person who notices patterns, digs deep into meaning, and finds joy in the details—whether in a great book, a hike in the woods, or the perfect formula in a spreadsheet. I live intentionally and reflect often.
You’ll find personal stories that speak to resilience and reinvention, essays on aging with grace, lessons from Stoic philosophy, and simple tools for living with more ease and awareness. You’ll also discover glimpses into my creative world—from writing and sketching to designing systems that bring calm to chaos.
This space is for anyone who’s still becoming—who knows that life doesn’t stop unfolding, no matter your age. Whether you’re navigating change, rediscovering yourself, or simply seeking thoughtful moments in a noisy world, I hope you’ll feel at home here.
Here’s to blooming with intention and grace—no matter where we’re planted.
