Taylor Swift Got Engaged at 35…. And Why It’s Proof You’re Not Late to Your Own Life

The world loves timelines.
Graduate by 22.
Married by 30.
Kids before 35.
By 40, your story should be neatly tied with a bow.

But here’s the thing: life doesn’t work like that. Your life doesn’t have to work like that.

When news broke that Taylor Swift got engaged at 35, it wasn’t just another headline… it was a revolution wrapped in diamonds. It was proof that rewriting the script isn’t just possible…. it’s POWERFUL!!

And maybe… it’s the reminder you need today: you’re not behind. You’re not late. You’re exactly on time.

The Power of “Late”-in-Life Milestones

When Taylor said “yes” at 35, she wasn’t late—she was ready. And that’s the difference.

Because here’s the truth: you don’t bloom on someone else’s schedule. Flowers don’t ask for permission before they open. They turn toward the sun when the conditions align.

Late milestones aren’t late. They’re simply yours.

I know this truth intimately. At 41, I chose to become a single mom by choice. IVF, solo, and against the chorus of voices that whispered, “Isn’t it too late? Aren’t you supposed to do it another way?”

But like Taylor, I didn’t follow their song. I followed mine.

And you? You can too. Whether it’s love, career, motherhood, or any other milestone, you get to decide the timing.

Breaking the Rules That Never Fit

Taylor Swift has never played by the old rules. She changed genres when she was told to “stay in her lane.” She re-recorded her music when others would have surrendered their masters. She’s reinvented herself again and again.

Her engagement at 35 is just one more reminder: you don’t have to do it the way they told you.

And neither did I.

Society had a script for me: marry young, settle down, live predictably. Instead, I became a therapist, a coach, a woman who helps others transform their subconscious beliefs. I built my life on my own terms. And when I felt the pull to motherhood, I didn’t wait for a partner to give me permission. I chose myself, my daughter, my story.

That’s what breaking rules looks like: refusing to shrink into someone else’s mold.

Getting Engaged at 35: Why It Matters

So why does Taylor’s engagement at 35 make such waves?

Because it challenges the quiet but crushing narrative: If you haven’t found love, settled down, or built your life by 30… you’ve failed.

Her story interrupts that lie.

And that’s exactly what subconscious work is all about: interrupting the old programming that says you’re late, not enough, or missing something.

Because here’s the truth: your subconscious—the beliefs etched into you between ages 0–7—still drives most of your choices. If you were taught that love has an expiration date, or that success is only valid if it comes early, you’ll live your life in quiet panic, racing a clock that isn’t even real.

But when you begin to go within, to rewire those limiting beliefs, something shifts.

• You stop chasing timelines.

• You start living aligned.

• You stop asking, “Am I too late?”

• You start declaring, “I’m right on time.”

Rewriting Your Story From the Inside Out

Taylor’s engagement at 35 is an outer milestone—but it reflects an inner truth: she has always owned her narrative.

The same is true for me. Choosing motherhood at 41 wasn’t just an external decision. It was the result of years of inner work—rewiring beliefs about worth, possibility, and timing.

If I hadn’t gone within—if I hadn’t worked through the limiting beliefs that whispered, “It’s too late, it’s too hard, you can’t do this alone”—I would have missed the greatest joy of my life: my daughter.

And that’s the invitation for you, too: whatever chapter you’re longing to write, the work begins within.

External change always follows internal permission.

How to Begin Your Own Rewrite

Here’s how you can start shifting your story today:

Name the Old Rule You’re Still Following

Maybe it’s “I should be married by now.” Or “I should have it all figured out.” Or “I can’t start over this late.”

Say it out loud. Write it down. Make it visible.

Ask If It’s Yours

Who gave you that belief? Was it family? Society? A cultural narrative? Do you actually believe it—or has it just lived in you for so long that you stopped questioning it?

Choose a New Belief That Sets You Free

Instead of “I’m too late,” try: “I’m exactly on time.”
Instead of “I can’t do it alone,” try: “I’m strong enough to create my own path.”
Instead of “I should already be there,” try: “My timing is mine, and that’s enough.”

When you practice rewriting these beliefs—through journaling, hypnosis, therapy, or subconscious change work—you stop living under someone else’s clock. You start living your own.

You Don’t Have to Do This Alone

If reading this stirs something in you… if you’re ready to stop living by someone else’s rules but aren’t sure how to start… I can help!

This is the work I do every day: guiding women (and men, too) through the deep inner shifts that make outer change possible. Together, we uncover the limiting beliefs that keep you stuck, rewire the subconscious patterns that say “you can’t,” and replace them with truth, clarity, and possibility. Whether it’s through 1:1 coaching, group workshops, or custom hypnosis, I help you stop waiting for permission and start creating a life that finally feels like yours.

Because your milestones? They’re waiting for you. And the path to them begins within.

Taylor Swift as a Mirror: It’s Not About Her, It’s About You

Taylor Swift’s engagement at 35 is her story—but it can also be your mirror.

What if her milestone is simply a reminder that your timing is sacred, your rules are yours, and your story isn’t late—it’s unfolding?

What if the thing you’ve been doubting—love, career, parenthood, freedom—isn’t gone, it’s just waiting for you to claim it?

And what if, like Taylor, like me, you decided that the most radical thing you could do was… stop waiting for permission, and start writing your own script?

You’re Not Late. You’re the Author.

Taylor Swift didn’t get engaged “late.” I didn’t become a mother “late.”

We arrived exactly when we were supposed to—because we refused to let someone else’s timeline dictate our lives.

And you can too.

So, whether you’re getting engaged at 35, starting over at 50, or stepping into motherhood at 41, let this be your reminder:

✨ You are not late.
✨ You are not behind.
✨ You are right on time.

The only question left is this: Are you ready to go within, release the beliefs that hold you back, and finally step into the story that’s yours?

Because the page is blank. The pen is in your hand. And your script is waiting.

Ready to Rewrite Your Story… No Matter Your Age?

Whether you’re 25, 35, 45, 55, or beyond… whether you’re single, recently divorced, starting over, stepping into parenthood, or pivoting careers, your milestones are waiting. And the truth is… you already have everything inside you to create them.

When you work with me, we go deep. Together, we uncover the subconscious beliefs that have kept you stuck, gently dissolve the rules you never agreed to, and replace them with empowering patterns that allow you to step boldly into the life you’re meant to live.

Imagine yourself waking up each day aligned, confident, and free to make decisions that feel right for you… knowing that your timing is perfect, your choices are yours, and your next chapter is already unfolding.
