Synopsis

Listeners seeking a "holistic, approachable guide to approaching middle age with verve" (Foreword Reviews) will appreciate this "comprehensive and chatty guide" (Publishers Weekly) with inspiring and practical advice to navigate aging well.

When I was 41, I learned how to wash my face. Turns out I'd been doing it wrong. (Hint: ditch cleansing wipes!) This made me wonder what else I didn't know. Like: Cardio or weights? Why can't I sleep? Is there a trick to ordering good wine? Or buying art? I figured if I still had questions about how to adult and age like a superwoman, maybe you did too.

The Glow Code provides all the answers you need to feel, look, and live better in midlife and beyond. Rich in advice from top scientists, psychologists, makeup artists, fitness and nutrition authorities, and others, this book offers strategies and tips for better fitness, friendships, sex, creative practices, and more. And to make sure it works, I've tested it all—with sometimes hilarious results.

Fun, practical, and inspiring, The Glow Code is the manifesto to aging joyfully. For all of you with minimum free time but maximum ambition to rock this next stage of life, welcome to your cheat sheet.

I loved this book!! Michelle McIvor’s writing style is perfection. While the tone reads like you’re chatting with a good friend, the information is thoughtfully presented, nonjudgmental, witty, and filled with obvious love and care for women. The layout of the book allows you to pick and choose which......more

Goodreads review by Anya on June 17, 2024

This lifestyle and beauty guide is written in a fun and engaging way by the author who explores various methods of ‘feeling your best’, speaking to experts, and testing out the methods herself. Each chapter explores a new topic, from skincare to exercise, with diary sections when the author is incor......more

There is so much stuff out there around aging and all the things you can do to run from it. This book is NOT one of them. This book embraces how to celebrate you at any age really and the cheat sheets are your little tickets to just feeling good! I loved the format, the tone- it made me laugh, it ga......more
