    My changing life - looking back and forward

    Send us a text  “… this dual process coping seems to be the way of midlife.”  I hope summer is going well for you all.  In this episode I share that my summer is feeling weird and all the change that I have been coping with.  This summer has felt different. I share how I have been looking back, missing the simple summers at the pool when my kids were younger.   I mention that redoing my daughter's room has been bringing up lots of nostalgic memories.  I am also excited for my children to leave the nest but it is such a bittersweet time.  I also share how our trip to the Cleveland Natural History museum with its new renovation was a metaphor to what I have been feeling as we appreciated the new but were looking for all the familiar past things we loved about the museum.   I finish with a quote from an article that describes my feelings quite well, both the mourning and the reinvention.  Looking back and also looking forward.   For show notes go to www.findingthefloor.com/ep224 I would love to hear from you!
