The "Seasons of Growth" framework was developed to provide a compassionate and insightful guide for navigating the unique
challenges and opportunities that arise in the second half of life. Recognizing that life unfolds in continuous cycles, much like nature's
seasons, this framework encourages individuals to embrace change, cultivate inner wisdom, and find purpose in every stage of their journey,
fostering a sense of peace and fulfillment through intentional personal
development.
Meet Sharon W. Rose
Sharon W. Rose is a lifelong educator, leader, and storyteller who writes about growth across the seasons of life. She believes growth does not stop at midlife; it deepens and continues to unfold as we age. After more than 30 years in higher education, she began exploring her own creative path through writing, reflection, and learning new skills in the second half of her life.
Her work often centers on life transitions, including the emotional shift parents experience when a child leaves for college. Drawing from both her professional background in education and her personal experience as a parent, she writes with honesty about change, identity, and learning to let go while still moving forward.
Through her Seasons of Growth framework, Sharon Rose offers steady encouragement for women 50 and older who are rediscovering their voice, welcoming new beginnings, and learning to trust themselves again. Her writing is grounded and reflective, shaped by lived experience, and meant to serve as a steady companion for anyone navigating change with care and courage.
