An inspirational and practical book about how we can shape and make the most of our postmenopause, from psychotherapist Dr Stella Duffy.There are a lot of books out there about menopause, but no one is talking about what comes next - postmenopause, which can be a quarter to a third of your life.What if menopause is your body reminding you to pay attention to your life, to your desires, your passions, your wants? And what if postmenopause is an opportunity to finally - FINALLY - live your life on your terms?In Being The Change, psychotherapist Dr Stella Duffy challenges and inspires her readers to live the postmenopause - the rest of your life - that you dream and plan and create for yourself, unhooked as far as possible from whatever has held you back in the past.Drawing on original research, stories from the therapy room and Duffy's own experience of medical menopause after cancer in her 30s, Being the Change blends real life narratives, analysis and practical exercises to show how this final stage of our lives can be creative and empowering, and how menopause is not the end, but an opportunity to centre ourselves in our own lives, and a wake-up call to our vital third act.
