If your career/work life has had to end, can we celebrate it right here?!

In another post, several of us have been discussing the end of our careers and how difficult it is to not only make that decision, but also to live with it. So much of that stress comes from the loss of identity and the lack of support that comes with ending your work.

Please use this space to discuss the field or fields you were in and the wonderful contributions, accomplishments and experiences you had. If this is just a hiatus, let it be a great place to check out the view from where you have come. If there is no returning to your previous work, recognize the Mark you made, and the legacy you left. You may realize that you are taking unknown talent, skills, knowledge, or dispositions into the next phase of your life.
