I always feel like a late bloomer, and even more so like a shape shifter. While people around me have been on a seemingly straight and narrow path, I’ve been bouncing around changing jobs, cities, careers, relationships. Currently feeling particularly vulnerable because i’ve decided to build a start up in my mid thirties and in some ways it feels like 10 steps back. Everyone else is just getting settled into comfortable management positions in their careers, and I’m back down to that founder salary ($0).
We are cut from the same cloth it seems, Trish. I’m 55 now but found myself — as a late bloomer — exploring new paths and taking risks. I am here to tell you this is fantastic for growth and a rich, wonderful life, even though it’s hard to see when people are settling down around you and the salary is nil. You are doing fantastic; stay strong and true to your calling!
How wonderful and inspiring is your article - I love it. I am a late bloomer and relate. What's next on the journey of possibilities to grow and achieve by your own definition - love you !!
