Forget About Having It All: The Midlife Woman's Guide to Creating the Life you Want

A clear, concise and practical guide to help midlife women discover who they are now and what they want next.For decades, women have been offered the promise of having it all: career, love, success, money and so much more. The caveat is that having it all comes with a lot of doing, and without a guarantee of happiness or fulfilment. It's not surprising that many women arrive at midlife exhausted, unhappy and wondering what went wrong.

Shifting hormones of perimenopause and menopause are part of a cascade of changes that can lead a woman to question her identity and what she wants to create next in her life.

From not recognizing herself in the mirror, to exhausting stress and sleepless nights, these changes lead a woman into a new relationship with her body. And according to Petty, that's where the answers lie.

Based on her doctoral research, Forget About Having It All also combines observations and strategies from Dr. Petty's own journey of midlife self-discovery. The book contains practical strategies and exercises for women who are ready to embrace their innate wisdom and create their own path.
