"At age 63, I’ve turned my attention to ME!"
I’ve been drifting along my whole life. I never learned to set goals. I was born when girls were just supposed to get married and have a family. At 63, I’ve turned my attention to me! I want more from life. Don’t get me wrong, I love the family I’ve created with my husband and my kids rank up there as very high on my priorities. But I raised them to be independent and to pursue their dreams and goals! No guilt tripping here, always support for their interests and desires. They are my blessing. I’m moving toward retiring from an office job that is really a very good job, except I am not passionate about it. I’m just good at details and looking after others. I want to crest this late chapter in my life as a period of joyful creativity and an extra income stream. My problem is not knowing how to move that forward. I have many skills and hobbies, as well as having studied feng shui and shamanism, reiki and healing touch and I’m an expert baker and cook. How do I toll all that into a business? Anyway, the journey continues. I’ve always paid attention to my intuition and I am tuning in closer now to messages I receive and looking for guidance and validation there. Let’s go!
