She thought midlife would be calm. Restful. Maybe even a little indulgent. Instead, she's restocking the fridge for grown kids, juggling prescriptions for aging parents, and trying to remember who she was before she became everyone else's unpaid manager, therapist, and emotional support human. Told with razor-sharp wit and raw honesty, This Wasn't the Plan is a hybrid memoir of essays and reflections that dives deep into the grief of a life that didn't unfold as promised-and the unexpected freedom that comes from rewriting your role.
