About Yael Wolfe
I’m the Big, Bad Wolf
Or at least I’m trying to be…
Hello and welcome to my magical little forest. I’m so glad to have you join me.
About Me
My name is Yael and in my forties, I’m finally trying to unearth the wild wolf that lives within me. Like a good little girl, I hid her away most of my life, trying so hard to follow conventional paths.
But those efforts got me nowhere. Just before I turned 40, the man that I thought was my life partner left me for a woman half my age. My entire world crumbled in just one moment.
Though many people might consider that a terrible, heartbreaking loss (and at the time, it was), I’ve come to discover that it was the best thing that could have happened to me. Because his departure set me free.
I was finally able to break out of my cage and discover who I was, on my own terms — as a woman and as a sexual being. And it’s been an incredible journey of self-discovery.
I’ve been here on Medium since June 2019, sharing my stories and evolving through my practice of writing. Each piece is one more step toward wholeness.
