Ep #29: How I Decided to Go Back to School at 55

This week’s episode features an interview that’s part of the
Getting Real with Women in the Middle Series.
Getting Real introduces you to real life women
in the middle who have made a big change and figured out how to
love their midlife.


This week, I want to introduce you to Patty Shore, Curator of
Collections and Exhibitions at Heritage Farmstead Museum in
Plano, Texas. Patty is a woman in the middle who has done just
that; she worked hard to figure out what she wanted to do when
she grew up, after the kids moved out of the house. For her, this
included going back to school at 55 years old.


Patty shares what it was like for her in midlife when her kids
started to graduate, how she figured out what she wanted to do,
how she decided to go back to school, and what it’s like to
finally find a career that you love, even at this age.


Like so many of the episodes in this podcast, Patty shows us how
you can really do what you want if you focus and keep working
hard to accomplish your goal. Sometimes the clarity about what
you want to do isn’t so obvious, but through trial and error, you
can figure it out and find a job that you love.
