Great piece that resonated with my experience. I'm in my (gasp) early 60s, and I have occasionally written deeply personal essays on Medium about things like saying goodbye to your professional identity and having the pandemic involuntarily retire me from basketball. I keep intending to keep up with my blog(s) but I just find myself thinking, what new thing could I possibly say about graphic design, UX design, web design, work flows, or anything else related to my professional life that hasn't already been said, and likely said better than I would? There's only so many hours in the day and week and I find I mostly prefer using my "free" time making rather than writing about it.
