It's not easy reestablishing a relationship with myself. I have been so focused on raising kids and building my husband's career and business. Then when I hit perimenopause and my kids left home I realized that I was entering a new stage in my life and I didn't know what I wanted. I knew what everyone else had needed but I didn't know what I wanted to do without their needs to consider. I still don't.
My power to decide and know what to do for the next twenty or thirty years of my life has left me and I feel powerless.
