Ann Douglas and Sara Smeaton talk about navigating midlife transitions and making sense of the many contradictory emotions of midlife.
“What do you consider to be the power years? I’m 60, almost 61, and have been downsized into “retirement.” I wasn’t ready or done with contributing. Can 60 still be part of the midlife magic? I hope so! I’m trying to view this as a new phase of growth and opportunity for a new path, but it’s finding the path that’s proving to be challenging or, as Ann says…a bit messy.”
Thank you for the great question!
