Your children leave, your career feels hollow, or you simply look in the mirror and wonder who you are now. The roles that defined you for decades are falling away, leaving a void filled with questions and a quiet sense of grief. But what if this transition was not an ending, but a clearing of the ground for a life that is truly your own?
