It’s common for mothers of adult children to experience regret over having: worked outside of the home and missed time with their growing children left a career to stay home and raise children, thereby losing temporary or permanent professional traction We can either use regret as a catalyst to get curious about what we really value most and commit to creating that now, OR, we can stay stuck in disappointment and longing for a different past.  I invite you to consider these questions: What can I use my time, energy, and resources to create now? How willing am I to stop believing that NOW would be better or different if I had made a different choice back THEN? How willing am I to accept that I’ll never be able to prove with 100% certainty that I made the wrong/right decision? How might it have been the perfect decision to work outside the home? How might it have been the perfect decision to stay home with your kids?
