A period of reflection this afternoon reminded me of the time I had my first midlife career tangent. When you receive support, even though you had no prior knowledge that you needed it, it can have a profound impact. Suddenly giving back becomes really important to you.
It’s more than just being thankful. It might sound cheesy, but it absolutely is an awakening. Something that builds from within and consumes you.
The wonderful irony is that you become grateful for the opportunity to give back.
