Liz Walton, a 55-year-old mother from Canberra, attributes her positive experience as an older mom to her personal growth. After 10 years of struggling with IVF, she conceived her daughter, Willow, naturally. Walton actively supports younger mothers and takes on a coordinator role at her daughter's school. The experience of being an older parent deeply affected Willow, who faced the loss of her grandparents early in life. Walton emphasizes raising a strong, resilient daughter and sees her mission as helping Willow become the best version of herself, regardless of age.
Being an older parent is a gift because I am the very best version of myself. I've worked hard to become this version of myself.
I explained that we're each given a different path in life. Willow has taught me about the importance of acceptance, which I'm now imparting to her.
