I think my midlife crisis has begun.

I'm really not looking forward to turning 45 this year. I don't know what it is 🤷‍♀️. My mom's midlife crisis also started around age 45 I think. I don't remember my dad having one, or maybe he didn't really talk about it.

Your mom’s experience could be fueling your concerns of turning 45. Your 45 will be different than hers though. It’s a different time. Different experiences leading you to that number. Think of 45 as another part of the chapter this decade is writing. With fresh ink. Fresh paper. New possibilities.
