Are you satisfied with your life? Are you sure you are living the life you want to live?
When Ada Calhoun turned 40, deep despair hit her, but she thought she had no right to complain. Ada was married, had two children and a great career. So why was she feeling miserable? Calhoun set out to find answers. She interviewed dozens of women her age, studied housing costs, personnel trends, and divorce data. At every turn, she saw a pattern: sandwiched between boomers and millennials, Generation X women faced new challenges as they entered middle age, challenges largely ignored by society. Talking to women of her generation who were indoctrinated as children that they could "have it all," Calhoun found that most were exhausted, scared, and depressed. The author offers solutions to pull themselves out of the abyss of crisis and prevent the next generation of women from falling into it. The result is encouraging and empowering. This is a must read for all women.
