When did it hit you that you’re in the midlife phase? Was it a big life event, a random moment, or just waking up one day feeling different? Share your experience...what’s been the toughest part, and what’s exciting about it? For me, it was when I turned 55 and it occurred to me that I most likely have less life ahead of me than behind me. Now at almost 60 and divorced with my kids grown and out, I am trying to self-actualize what "midlife" means for me.
