I’ve been running into a number of women lately who can’t seem to remember who they were before they married and had kids. About to enter the empty nest stage, they are anxious as to what to do next. For the first time in a very long time, they have time to focus on themselves. They’re no longer sure what their function is. This can be very scary, for sure.

So what do you do when you have time, but no idea what to do with it? No idea what it was you ever enjoyed doing? Sit at home, perhaps, and reminisce about the good old days? The mustard-filled diapers, the soccer games in the rain, the angry phone calls from the school? Hello!?

The answer is you get out there and explore. You experiment.
