I had read your book last year, and I read your columns in the WI state journal. Your column today was outstanding. You are so right, "You don't always have to do what you love". Amen to you sister! I am a 50 year old white middle class (is there such a thing anymore?) single mom with 3 daughters in college. (In case your are looking for demographics). If there is something you have written or have referenced for folks like me who have been there, done that, but still want to learn new things and explore career options would you be willing to share that with me? This isn't so scary afterall. I am your biggest fan. Taking the high road, Maureen Penelope,
