This remarkable book offers revealing glimpses into the lives of 15 spirited women. From artists and writers to educators and scientists, each one candidly shares the choices she has made and the meaning she has found in this complex and exhilarating time of life. Women in their thirties face a myriad of weighty decisions about career, home, love, marriage, and babies, all compounded by cultural expectations of how women are "supposed" to be. Yet, as these personal stories so eloquently reveal, this is a time in which women can discover their true calling as they learn to trust their intuition, make peace with their past, and actualize their dreams in increasingly meaningful ways. The richly diverse perspectives offered here will inspire every woman in her thirties to claim her gifts, draw from her strengths, and direct her creative energy toward her deepest passions.
It's so refreshing to know that I'm not alone. I'm 31 and have just recently started to explore my creativity. Turning thirty has opened me up. That's the theme that runs through this wonderful book....being open to whatever life brings. Hearing how the featured women are dealing with some of the same issues confronting me helped me to take a skip back to look at the big picture. When you curl up with this book, you feel like you're with a thoughtful group of friends. I loved it!
