Synopsis

You know her. You've seen her. You may even see yourself in her.

If you're arriving to the midlife crisis party—the one that's serving low self-esteem, desperation, unreliable behavior, forgetfulness, carelessness, and the loneliness of loss—the stories and anecdotes in this memoir will assure you that you are not alone.

For Sara Arnell, it took a rogue lobster, a dying rock star, an eighteen-pound tumor, a meditation guru, a famous medium, and a former monk to put her on a path toward light, hope, and healing. If listening to this book helps even one person, according to Sara, then telling this story is all worth it.

This book is for every woman facing this time in their life. It's about a life stage that comes at a time of life when everything's changing. Kids are leaving home. Work is looking different.

Goodreads review by Joanne on July 31, 2021

Bare and very honest. I was interested at first because I thought there be more about the advertising industry and how’d she’d be able to pick herself up by the bootstraps and restart in the field or in some other entrepreneurial way, but any real need to work never really manifested. But possibly t......more

Goodreads review by Jane on April 26, 2021

This is a very powerful book. At times I found the style of writing difficult to handle, but the subject matter is difficult and I think the style was warranted. A must read for anyone who has been through addiction, depression, rejection, or any other midlife crisis.......more
