A quick note to advise you all that the Midlife Share the Love Party will be ending this month. The last link up will be Wednesday, 26th August.
Leanne and I have enjoyed hosting a link up for Midlife Lifestyle bloggers for over 2.5 years. Our first Midlife Share the Love Party launched on 31st January, 2018, and our aim was to build a community of Midlife bloggers that would be supportive of each other. I feel that we have been successful in our mission but like life, change and new directions happen and this means that Leanne and I will no longer be providing the link party each week.
We hope you have enjoyed being part of this wonderful community of Midlife Bloggers who are proving that Midlife and Beyond is a great time of life.
We still have three weeks to party and we thank you for your support and contributions over the last 2.5 years.
WE ARE TRYING TO FOSTER A SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY SO PLEASE COMMENT AND SHARE ON AT LEAST THREE POSTS.
This party is EXCLUSIVE because we want to support and encourage each other’s blogging journey.
We are going to be VERY focused on finding Midlife bloggers who want to be part of a proactive group who care about each other and are interested in connecting and supporting each other.
To get started we wanted to make sure everyone is aware of The Guidelines:
Who We Are:

What We’re Not
- There are a million link parties for mums, recipes, DIY, fashion, reviews, products and sponsored posts – this is NOT one of those.
- There are a million link parties where people drop their links and run – this is NOT one of those.
- There are a million link parties where it’s all about you and your post – this is NOT one of those.
What We Are:
- We are Exclusive! There will less than 40 links in total – after that we close the party.
- You MUST be 45+ to link up – this is exclusively for Midlifers.
- You may only link ONE post and it MUST be lifestyle related – if it’s not it will be removed.
- You MUST commit to commenting on AT LEAST THREE other linked posts – more if you can.
- You MUST commit to sharing AT LEAST FIVE other linked posts on three social media sites of your choice – this only takes a few seconds per post and can make a huge impact on our views.
What We Will Do:
- We will post the party every Wednesday Morning at 6am AEST (here is a time zone calculator to help you)
- We will limit the party to 30 guests
- We will remove anyone who doesn’t follow The Guidelines
- We will comment on and share every post (50% each)

I’m sorry to hear that the #MLSTL link-up is ending, though I certainly understand the desire to move in a different direction. Rather than subscribe to blogs and get a lot of emails, I’ve relied on #MLSTL to gather them all in one place for me. I’m going to have to work a little harder at staying in touch now. 🙂 Thank you for the last 2.5 years. The time flew by!
I too am sad to see #MLSTL ending but certainly understand the reasoning and have appreciated all the connections I’ve made through this linkup. Thank you both for all your hard work in keeping us together in one place. I agree with Christie I relied on the weekly linkup in some ways to stay connected. I will definitely miss it but hopefully we have all forged our own links with everyone and can follow and find other midlife bloggers by staying in touch. Thanks again and hugs xx
Oh how sad I have throughly enjoyed these link ups. Every Wednesday I wait for your email and know that I will be connected to other like minded strong women. I too understand why this must happen. I hope that somehow we can remain connected. Thanks for everything xx
Hi, Sue and Leanne – Thank you both so much for your 2.5 years of hard work to make this LInkUp possible for all of us. It has made a huge different. MLSTL will be greatly missed.
Thank you Sue and Leanne for having us here in this linky space for the past 2+ years. I too, will miss this connection space but understand how priorities change and grow.
Denyse.
Sue I’m so sorry to say that I missed your notice that #MLSTL has now finished. I saw Debs post on
Shout Out Saturday today. I feel very sad that it’s all over, but full understand that life does move on.
Thank you so much for all you have done to make this link up possible. I’ve met amazing bloggers here
and have to say that my blog has evolved over the past couple of years, due to the linkup. Good luck for yor
new direction.
Hi Jen it doesn’t actually finish until the end of August. It has been great building the community and thanks for being part of it all. x
