The New York Times. Superbly successful books, workshops, and television appearances have transformed the lives of millions of people. In a work that explores and demystifies one of life’s most challenging and confusing passages, she shatters the myth that turns midlife into a crisis and offers a bold new strategy for creating a new life after 40.

Barbara Sher shows you how to rediscover the enthusiasm that made you want to be an adventurer in the first place. It is never too late to start over. When dreams for the future and experiences of the past finally come together, midlife is the perfect time to do so. The second life can be even better than the first. It wouldn’t have been possible to make these important realizations until now.

Discover:

• How to make life’s built-in “time limit” work for you
• Which of your “regrets” can point the way to a more rewarding life
• How to identify – and overcome – the illusions that stop you from living your dreams
• Dozens of ways to recapture your freedom…without succumbing to “road fever”, trophy-mate collecting, or other midlife maladies.

Combining step-by-step strategies with provocative exercises and motivational techniques, this extraordinary book reminds you of the dreams you abandoned along the path to adulthood, providing all the tools you will need to weave those into a richly textured, meaningful life.

Barbara Sher shows you how to turn midlife challenges into catalysts for change, beginning with the idea that everyone has a future. If you don’t start right now, it’s only too late to regain your creativity, recapture your long-lost dreams, and embark on an exciting new life.
