Unearths the stories of the little-known but powerful elder women in European myth and folklore, inspiring listeners to radically reimagine the last decades of their lives as the most dynamic of all

Western folklore and mythology are rife with brilliantly creative, fulfilled, feisty, and furious role models for aging women, despite our culture's focus on youthfulness. In her exciting new book, mythologist and psychologist Sharon Blackie explores these archetypes, presenting them in a way sure to appeal to contemporary women. Drawing inspiration from these examples, women can reclaim midlife as a liberating, alchemical moment rich with possibility and their elder years as a path to dynamic power.

After menopause, women can expect to live another forty to fifty years, making this stage of life longer than childbearing years. As Blackie describes it, midlife is the threshold to decades of opportunity and profound transformation, a time to learn, flourish, and claim the desires and identities that are often limited during earlier life stages. This is a time for gaining new perspectives, challenging and evolving our belief systems, exploring our calling, uncovering meaning, and ultimately finding healing for our accumulated wounds.

I bumped into Sharon Blackie in the This Jungian Life podcast where they interview her. Fascinated by her wisdom and lovely voice, I searched for her latest book and was pleasantly surprised that at that time at least Audible offered a free version.
What a source of deep, inner female wisdom! Being narrated by Blackie herself, her voice carries the magic she so beautifully describes. Warts and all ;) Her writings remind me of those of Clarissa Pinkola Estes and Isabel Allende who also manage to draw you into the deep inner world of the female mysteries.
I wholeheartedly recommend this audiobook to any woman, especially those of us who enter menopause or are in it and also to their partners who want to understand the journey each woman who passes this phase in her life goes through. With all its potentials, sufferings and beauties.

Deep female wisdom, beautifully narrated

Terminé este libro con una sonrisa y paz. Encontré afinidad en la expresión sincera de los saberes y explicaciones de una mujer buena. Aprecio el compromiso y la dedicación para encontrar el relato mitológico que describe el sentido de una vida de contemplación profunda. Este libro describe el amor a la naturaleza, a la persona que envejece y comprende con amor su mortalidad y goza al buscar el sentido oculto y personal que tenemos derecho a dibujar.

Expresión sincera e íntima de creencias y sabiduría de una mujer
