Oftentimes we are fearful of raising and voicing our opinions. We also are often fearful of declaring our needs and the accompanying emotions around unexpressed needs. This fear can relate to how others would be affected and in turn to their reactions. Often fear can arise with what was said and now being unable to retract it, unable to erase it without a trace of fearing the avalanche effects on another’s life.  But now how you live is going to be affected as own the truth of what was voiced. This fear can often be coupled with the greater fear: that of change. It is you now out there, carrying and forging ahead with your life. You are living life now, on your own terms you are free to explore your world and leave your footprint saying that you have lived.

For women particularly entering the last phase of life – whether one had a career to this point, was a homemaker or had other roles, or some combination of roles – this time of life is regarded as freeing. Finding your voice is an essential contribution to living a fulfilled life, whether you  are in a relationship with a significant other or single.  Negotiating this segment of life requires you to be seen and heard- you as a unique being.  You matter, your presence is significant to the world.
