In her latest column, Annie addresses the struggles of navigating life’s constant changes at every stage. From a 28-year-old dealing with the uncertainty of a new job to a mid-40s friend juggling career shifts and a grandmother in her 80s exploring new hobbies, every generation faces its own transitions. The common thread is the desire to hold onto what defines us while embracing change.
Annie encourages readers to honor their past experiences that have shaped them, while also looking forward to the future. She advises keeping a journal to capture feelings and celebrate victories, and sharing the journey with others who can relate. Change is inevitable, but it doesn’t diminish our worth; it offers a chance for growth and new opportunities.
Life is a series of transitions, and it’s important to find balance and meaning amid the shifts. By embracing change as the only constant in life, individuals can find happiness and fulfillment in each season they are in. Annie’s advice speaks to those just starting out, in the midst of midlife, or enjoying their golden years, offering reassurance that no one is alone in their journey through life’s changes.
