Awakening in Midlife

Caught between reality and ideals, we watch the years slip through our fingers. When he or she enters middle age, with their career hitting a wall, family conflicts piling up, and an unease stirring within, this book, Midlife Awakening, is written for a soul just like that. Jesse was an industrious, conventional middle-aged person, but change and crisis pushed him to the brink. He or she endured betrayal, loss, doubt, and panic, stumbling through life until, little by little, they began to awaken amid the wreckage: reexamining themselves, rebuilding their inner sense of worth, and bravely saving themselves. This is a story about saving yourself, and about love given a fresh start. Within these pages are the pain of reality and the glow of tenderness; cries of despair and shouts of defiance. If you have ever woken in the middle of the night and asked yourself, “What do I have left?”; if you long for change, to be understood, and to live with dignity in an ordinary life, then come read this book. Perhaps you’ll see the truest version of yourself, the one longing most to be awakened.
