What happens when our sense of who we are gets turned upside down? It can be sparked by an unexpected lay-off or health crisis; a breakup or the arrival of a milestone, like a significant birthday or an empty nest.
My guest today is Linda Rossetti. She says we often misunderstand what’s happening at these times, and that makes us miss out on the advantages these moments bring.
