Today I am mindful of my upcoming retirement as a nurse. Although I am excited I do find myself tearing up. I am starting the process of grieving a part of me that has been my calling for 40 years. As I explained to my son it has been who I am almost as long as being a mother. But I also look forward to the joy I have in becoming a new me. A new calling. And mindful that just as I did not automatically become a nurse it was born in intention and sharpened by pure action. These are the tools that I bring to my entrepreneurial calling.
