Recensione:
"Dreams Have No Expiry Date is about identifying the changes that will take place, coming to terms with it, and realizing that it’s never too late to start all over. Once the new course is charted, the book provides the strategies and tools to make it happen."
—The Suburban (Quebec)
“Although this book targets ‘midlife’ women, it can be picked up by any generation. It’s so refreshing in its honesty, humor and humanity. And with few role models out there, it offers us real examples and guides to ‘move forward, in any direction’! Go for it!”
—Ann Medina, broadcaster
“Insightful and inspirational, Dreams Have No Expiry Date is a must-read for those who are just beginning to dream or those who are building on their dreams. This self-help book wakes the reader up and encourages her to act. Dreams Have No Expiry Date is the perfect road map for a bright and ambitious woman of any age.”
—Judith Shamian, RN, Ph.D, President and CEO, the Victorian Order of Nurses (VON) Canada
“This book is a manual for living. It is a practical and inspirational guide on how to convert dreams into realities. It is great for women — or anyone — making transitions in life and work.”
—Nancy Barry, President, Women’s World Banking
“The authors of this book must have overheard every soul-searching conversation I’ve had with my women friends since our mid-forties. Their take on how best to live the last decades of our lives is both refreshing and inspiring. They are particularly attuned to women’s unique ways of knowing and the importance of process, intuition, and the ability to envision ways around obstacles rather than to think in terms of failure. There is value in this book for every woman who has ever pondered — and, I must say, every man as well.”
—Marjorie Anderson, Ph.D., co-editor of Dropped Threads and Dropped Threads 2
