Description

Midlife Emergence is an inspiring story and a wise guide for the woman in midlife who feels a gut-flipping, elusive longing for more. As psychotherapist and coach, Jen Berlingo, traversed her own midlife passage in her forties, she began to live more fully into her queer identity, experimented with ethical non-monogamy, and reframed divorce as an expansive form of love. She became a cartographer, pinpointing universal signposts so others would not have to walk this path alone. Jen shares journaling and art prompts and personal rituals to support the woman in midlife in freeing her own inner fire. Midlife doesn’t need to be a crisis or an emergency—rather, it’s an emergence, an opportunity to make beautiful, unexpressed facets shamelessly visible. This book is a compassionate companion that belongs on the bedside table of every woman burning to reclaim powerful parts of herself that social conditioning locked away.
