Women Waking Up

The debut book from hit podcaster and life coach Wendy Valentine is a rallying cry, inspirational memoir, and practical guidebook for the millions of Gen X women discovering midlife as the perfect time to craft the life they’ve always dreamed of Like millions of other Gen X women, Wendy Valentine entered midlife plagued with a host of seemingly insurmountable problems: unemployment, divorce, anxiety, a mountain of debt, the death of her brother, and chronic illness. Looking around and wondering if a window to new possibilities was closing, she held on to a vision of opening a new door instead, a dream of herself driving across the country cool, collected, happy, and singing along with the tunes blasting from her Bluetooth. Unrealistic? Maybe. Still, it worked. In Women Waking Up, Valentine redefines midlife for women based on her own experience of following her vision, buying an RV, and traveling cross-country seeking new adventures. On the back roads of America, she found herself and identified seven steps any woman can follow on their own road to satisfaction and fulfillment. She lays out this step-by-step process of getting from point A of angst to point B of bliss in the F.R.E.E.D.O.M. method, walking readers through their own midlife makeover process. Valentine guides readers to explore the eight areas that form a “wheel” of life, or in this case midlife: love, career, friends, family, finance, personal growth, health, and leisure. Along the way, she also reminds readers that they have something they didn’t before: knowledge and experience. Women Waking Up shows how all women armed with these two superpowers of midlife plus Valentine’s foolproof method can find balance, harmony, satisfaction, and the lives they’ve always wanted.
