How Not to Live Your Best Life

Book excerpt: A laugh-out-loud guide to life for women who are getting older but haven't quite worked out how to grow up... Once, women over 50 could look forward to growing old quietly, disappearing into a pair of white slacks and a grey bob - no more! We're now told we should want to have it all. Podcasts and books and websites tell us we should be achieving, succeeding and juggling multiple balls. But what if we'd rather run our own race? No one is speaking to women over 45 like we are - not the media, the advertisers or marketing. We are honest, hilarious and matter of fact about getting older and the obstacles it brings up. Come to us and get real about getting older - it's funny and awkward but we can do it in style. And while the world might suggest you're invisible if you're not a "superwoman", we don't care what anyone thinks. We're having a party over here - and it's a whole heap of fun.
