I can sympathize with her feeling a fear about looking ahead to the waning of years, but I don't see how pushing you aside helps her. What are the changes she wants to make? I don't know what to say except that maybe if she's going through something, giving her time and space to sort it out might help. You can't control what she chooses to do anyway. The challenge would be to be able to do that and not let it reflect on you. Can you create an emotional distance between your feelings for her and her current behavior?

She wants to move to a warmer place.. and she wants to get married again.. and start a new business to make money to supplement retirement income.
And I don't know what to do... this is clearly the hot topic for T until Christmas.. but since my core issues involve rejection, not trusting anyone, and never feeling accepted for who I am... this is triggering everything inside of me.. and makes me want to run far away fromt he entire situation. My T said it was flawed thinking and I agree, but I FEEL like if your mom can shove you aside... then daggumit anyone can and who wants to take that chance.
