Wondering About WonderCrone
What’s up with that name?
​Wonder means more than curiosity. It’s the audacity to not know—and still be powerful. It’s not a fleeting feeling; it’s a way of moving through the world. In a culture that worships certainty, control, and productivity, wonder is radical. Especially for women in our third chapter—who’ve been told it’s time to wind down, not ramp up. ​To wonder is to soften into strength. To live the question. To treat mystery as holy. This isn’t branding. It’s a way of being.
Let’s Talk About Crone
Yes, Crone is a charged word. Sharp. Jarring. Misunderstood. And that’s why we reclaim it.
“Crone” was never meant to mean “old hag.” She was the truth-teller, the edge-walker, the keeper of deep wisdom.
She’s wild, not worried about approval. She’s powerful, not palatable. She is no longer here to please—she’s here to be.
To reclaim the Crone is to reclaim our fire.
So there’s the name—WonderCrone. Because wonder needs grounding. And wisdom needs a voice. Come Crone With Us! We don’t fear the fire. We are the fire.

I started WonderCrone after bumping headfirst into ageism at sixty. (Surprise! Some people think relevance comes with an expiration date? I beg to differ.)​
What began as a personal reckoning has become a purpose-driven platform—a space where women in their third chapter can flip the aging script. WonderCrone isn’t about pretending we’re ageless. It’s about celebrating who we are now—with all our wisdom, wonder, scars, sass, and strength.
​
Ageism robs society of the wisdom and power of older women. WonderCrone advances aging in power through tools, media, and gatherings that make wisdom and agency visible, practical, and impactful in daily life.
We’re building a cultural enterprise to animate a global movement of women living with strength, presence, and consequence.

Art &Aging in Power
I discovered metal art in 2018 and haven’t looked back.
From that first weld and grind, the Divine Divas began to emerge—bold, mystical figures that carry women’s wisdom from across time and place.
​
Each Diva holds a message. I don’t always know where it comes from, but I trust it. There’s a kind of subconscious knowing at work—rooted in wonder, shaped by serendipity, and sparked by the beauty of recycled objects we might come across every day.
