So you're in midlife - sandwiched between Gen-X and Y offspring, and aging parents.
Looking over your shoulder at work, at younger co-workers ready to elbow you aside?
Elbow back, my friend. You have the wisdom and experience to outlast callow youth.
And if your employers don't appreciate that - move on. The world is your oyster.
Perhaps I'm whistling Dixie - if I had the breath to whistle. But at 48 I returned to the work force after 16 years at home raising my son. Quickly learned to seize opportunities, show commitment and dedication, and promotions followed rapidly. Changed course again at 52, to another successful career.
My joints may no longer flex, but my mind does.
This is our time to shine.
Here you'll find ideas and inspiration, anecdotes and tip for making the most of these incredible years. Join me for the ride.
