Written by two accomplished Canadian women, this inspirational guide helps women redefine their life paths and find new meaning and direction at mid-life.
?What will I do for the rest of my life? And what?s next?? Many women are asking these most pressing questions. Whether capping a successful career and looking for a new challenge, finding themselves unexpectedly downsized or emerging from the home and looking for a new start in today?s workforce, women are searching for purpose in their work and at leisure.
In Dreams Have No Expiry Date, Laurie Gottlieb and Deanna Rosenswig show how mid-life is actually the best time for women to live their dreams, now that they have the freedom, emotional resources, self-knowledge, time, wisdom and energy to do so. In a step-by-step way, using interviews, research and exercises designed to stimulate thinking and increase self-awareness, Gottlieb and Rosenswig help women articulate and then achieve their dreams. The text is peppered with inspirational stories and anecdotes from women interviewed about their process, their learning and their dreams.
Gottlieb and Rosenswig never underestimate the complexities of each woman?s life, but instead help women work with their skills and abilities to chart a course for the next 30, 40 or even 50 years of their lives.
