Midlife is a chrysalis, not a crisis. In the tumult of midlife, women can face a whirlwind of challenges: divorce, loss, career upheaval, and the daunting task of reinvention. At forty-nine, Eleanor Mills thought her life was going swimmingly. Then the bottom fell out of her world, and she had to start again from scratch. Much More to Come is the guide she longed for in those dark times. Within these pages, Eleanor shares stories of resilience and optimism; her own and those of women who have survived and thrived in midlife. Through moving stories and practical wisdom, Much More to Come cuts through the uncertainty and the self doubt, and proves that midlife is not to be feared, but embraced - a time for transformation, when we can finally become the women we always wanted to be.
