Imagine facing the most turbulent time of your life: your career is in flux, you’re going through a divorce, your children have left the nest and menopause is hitting hard. This was Adelina Winfield’s reality. Yet, instead of succumbing to these overwhelming changes, she made the bravest decision of her life to pack up everything and leave the familiar streets of Brooklyn, New York for a fresh start in the creative city of Austin, Texas. What followed was a profound journey of self-discovery, new friendships, and reinvention, proving that it’s never too late to start over and that age is just a number.

In continuation of our ‘Influencer Wisdom’ series, we uncover Adelina’s steadfast confidence in embracing her natural gray hair—a powerful symbol of her inner strength and wisdom. She transitioned from a successful fashion career to becoming a trailblazing influencer with over 100k followers on Instagram. Her breakthrough came in 2019 when she started connecting deeply with women just like her—women navigating the complexities of love, life, and aging with grace and authenticity.

Amidst all these transformations, Adelina also experienced a profound love story that blossomed later in life, defying stereotypes about finding love again after 60. Her journey is a powerful testament to the resilience of life’s seasons and the boundless possibilities that await those who embrace change and remain true to themselves.
