Description
An empowering guide which uses science, personal experience and women’s stories to show that midlife isn’t decline but a bold turning point toward a magnificent future’ Davina McCall
The smart guide that every midlife woman needs to read …
Forget everything you’ve been told about midlife. For millennia, women have been led to believe that it’s a time of decline. On the contrary, it is a time of transformation and re-formation; a turning point when we can move towards a bigger, better and more magnificent future. And who better to help you navigate this complex and wildly exciting time than women’s health campaigner and documentary maker Kate Muir.
In this essential and empowering guide, Kate draws upon scientific research, personal experience and the courageous and humorous stories of women to arm you with the knowledge you need to approach your second half with confidence, purpose and energy. She reveals how to:
- have better sex (after decades of trying)
- take advantage of brain rewiring in menopause
- upgrade your relationships and friendships
- change your job and find a creative renaissance
- avoid the midlife muffin top and love your microbiome
How to Have a Magnificent Midlife Crisis is your time to reset, renew and refresh ...
