Pamela Blair is a holistic psychotherapist, spiritual counselor, and personal coach with a private practice. She claims that women over fifty are the new pioneers thanks to living longer with many more options. Gloria Steinem agrees and calls this stage of life "another country."
With great elan, Blair covers a wide-range of material in thematic chapters on self-image, minds, emotions, fears, love, lives and relationships, spiritual self, creative self, health, living spaces, families, friends, play, work, and finances. She has spiced up this material with a batch of lively and thought-provoking quotations. For example, in the introduction, she quotes May Sarton: "I have always longed to be old, and that is because all my life I have had such great exemplars of old age, such marvelous models to contemplate." All those who read this engaging paperback will feel the same way!
