Oh, and that whole \"soulmate\" thing? He came along in her 30s - a professional athlete, following an unexpected life path of his own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen she hit 30, Stephanie realized that she had been spending so much time stressing over the plans that weren't working out that she was losing out on the excitement that came with following an inevitably unpredictable path. \u003ci\u003eLife Plan?
