I’ll be 72 yrs old in 4 days. I still feel mentally the same as I did at 30 y.o. For me, the key is to enjoy life, pursue your passions and get out and engage with life. At 45 yo I graduated from a Master’s program, became a nurse practitioner in internal medicine and started a new career. With 3 kids complicating the educational process, but I had a supportive family! Loved it… at age 56 I earned a doctorate, which put a lot of pieces of knowledge together.
I don’t do transitory trends or believe popular media regarding what women “ should be”. March to your own unique drum…
