Welcome to My Confident 50+ Wellness Journey: A life of grace, wellness, intentional growth, and purpose.

Hi, I am Gillian Larmond (Queen Gee), a woman in her 50s who chose to slow down, heal intentionally, and rebuild my life around what truly matters: my health, my peace, and meaningful connection to the earth. This is my online home, where I share my wellness journey authentically – the herbal teas and gentle movement that ground me, the container garden that feeds and heals me, the crochet plant hangers that bring beauty to small spaces, and the Grow Back Jamaica mission that invites everyday Jamaicans to reclaim food security. Whether you’re here for inspiration, to learn about growing herbs and food in containers, or to discover how healing can begin in the smallest spaces, you’re welcome. Subscribe below and journey with me as I grow, create, heal, and shine.
