Coming Into Your Self

 The person you were in college is not who you were in high school, and, at 40, you chuckle (or maybe cringe) to think of who you were at 25. In some ways you are likely growing more into yourself with each changing year, and in other ways, you might look back and wonder where or when you got lost. 

As we move through life, we leave certain parts of ourselves behind with people and places while embracing other parts as we adjust and adapt to changing seasons.

Midlife is a time when life invites us to slow down, reflect on who we've been, who we are now, and reevaluate what truly matters.

 Midlife is often described as a crossroads—It's initiation invites a range of emotions: grief over unmet dreams, excitement surrounding new found freedom, anxiety about aging, uncertainty about relationships, and a desire to rediscover purpose and passion. As roles shift, children grow up, careers evolve, and physical changes emerge, many people find themselves wondering, “What now?” “Am I living the life I really want want?” or “Who am I beyond my roles?
