My Blog Circle:

• Sandwiched Boomers

We are Phyllis Goldberg, Ph.D. & Rosemary Lichtman, Ph.D., aka the Sandwiched Boomers. In 2000, we co-founded HerMentorCenter.com, a website for midlife women and now post regularly at NourishingRelationships.blogspot.com, a blog for the sandwich generation.  We're the authors of a forthcoming book about family relationships and publish free ebooks and a monthly newsletter, Stepping Stones.

We are both happilly married, each for close to 45 years, and blessed with a rich family life. Phyllis' son and daughter are married and she has 5 grandsons. Rosemary has 2 married sons and 5 grandchildren.

We live in the Los Angeles area, have 40 years of collective private practice experience and are building platform on the Internet through article writing and blogging. 

How did you get to where you are now?

We never really made a plan about working together although we talked a lot about writing a mission statement. We just put one foot in front of the other and, so far, it's been an exciting journey.

How do you see yourself differently now than you did 10 years ago?

More confident and willing to take risks in all sorts of ways. And we've tapped into our creativity by writing a book together. Since our kids left home we're actually working and playing harder.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

At the risk of sounding symbiotic, beaming at our grandsons' graduations, then dancing at their weddings. Traveling and watching sunsets with our husbands.

Stay connected and enjoy every moment - it may sound cliche but time really does fly. Find your passion and trust yourself to follow it.

Women who have found their voices.
