If you've picked up this book, you know what I'm talking about. Laura Walker helps you understand not only what's happened, but how you can navigate midlife with some grace and purpose.</p><p><em>Michael Bungay Stanier, WSJ Bestselling Author of The Coaching Habit</em></p><p><br></p><p>There are plenty of motivational and self-help books out there for people of a certain age but this one stands out from the crowd. Firstly, it succeeds in being both a compelling read and incredibly well-researched. It also recognises the raft of factors that shape us, analyses them in a highly accessible way and then provides a holistic whole-life approach to fulfilling our potential.</p><p><em>Tony Watts OBE, Co-author of The Midlife Review, Chair SW Alliance on Ageing</em></p><p><br></p><p>Investing time in this book may be the best investment you'll make all year.

This is about redefining your whole self.</p><p><em>Sam Harrington-Lowe, Founder and Managing Editor, Silver Magazine</em></p><p><br></p><p>Addressing a crucial time in most people's lives, mid-life, this book provides reassurance, practical advice and excellent tools to help you move through it with confidence and hope.
