About The Middle Years Journey

Welcome to “The Middle Years Journey ” Blog!

If you are reading this, you are looking for something that resonates with what you are experiencing in your life.  Maybe you are looking for friendships, trying to find a new hobby, or experiencing the empty nest syndrome?  Let me introduce myself…

I’m Crystal and I am in the prime of “Midlife“.  I’m 46 years young, I’ve been married for 20 years and am a Mom to a 19-year-old Daughter. I also work full time in the medical management industry. Traditionally speaking “Midlife” starts at 50. Women in their 40’s have unique ideas, concerns, dreams, and issues as well!  Midlife brings to the forefront a myriad of issues; loss of marriages, dealing with aging parents, the empty nest syndrome, adult children, changing friendships and finding our life’s purpose. I realized that I am not the only one who shares these same thoughts and concerns.  There are many women out there who feel as if they are all alone.  Trust me, YOU’RE NOT!

This is why I named my blog “The Middle Years Journey”.

Midlife is a journey that we all have to face.  Some of us are exactly where we want to be in life, but the majority of us aren’t.  These are the years where we are “searching”.  I hope to share topics and issues that are relatable no matter what your demographics are. I have seen great blogs and podcasts out there for those of us in our 40’s, but we need MORE!! Seeing other women achieving their goals has encouraged me to fulfill mine!

 I hope you continue to follow me on this journey of Living and Learning in Midlife!
