Navigating Midlife: Women Becoming Themselves (book)
by Robyn Vickers-Willis .
Paperback, 235 pages, excellent condition.
This powerful, insightful book offers women vital possibilities for meaningful and profound change in how they choose to live the second half of their lives.
Addressing those women 35 and over who are at a crossroads and questioning the multiple aspects of their lives-job, marriage, children-it offers strategies to help them find out what they actually want to do with the next part of their lives and how to achieve their goals. With deep understanding and practical wisdom, it illustrates why it is normal to suffer depression, anger, loss, and doubt in midlife, and emphasizes the importance of embracing these turbulent feelings, rather than ignoring or running away from them.
