A women's self-help guide to thriving in midlife and beyond

With significant female figures breaking down taboos around menopause and opening up the discussion, women are in a stronger position than ever before to insist on a better midlife experience - a real cause for celebration. But while these discussions around menopause are brilliant and empowering, it's vital that we don't let the conversation stop there. Because midlife for women is a multifaceted experience, one in which our changing bodies and minds play an enormous part, but that's far from the only thing going on.

Midlife Matters is an all-encompassing guide for midlife women, exploring the key areas of health, wellbeing, nutrition, beauty, sex & relationships, work life, and finances with warmth and honesty. In this much-needed book, menopause campaigner and founder of the award-winning platform for midlife women, The Latte Lounge, brings together renowned experts to inform and empower you through every step of your midlife journey.

With comprehensive advice from leading doctors, psychologists, dermatologists, dieticians, athletes, journalists, lawyers and more, this midlife manual will help you to make your middle years the best ones yet.
