    Lost and Hopefully Find with the Camino

    Hi Tommy. I was in a similar position to you at age 40. Having sold my practice I had been squeezed into filling a position for a friend on a temporary basis which grew into 9 months. I remember feeling life was slipping through my fingers, literally being wasted on me. I first heard of the...
