THE TEN SMARTEST DECISIONS A WOMAN CAN MAKE AFTER FORTY

Good decisions are not only consistent with self-respect, but they're also based on self-awareness, good reality testing, a sense of what is appropriate, and the support of other people, according to the author, a practicing psychotherapist. This program is a sensible approach to evaluating opportunities for the 40-something woman. It offers encouragement that seizing the moment is okay if your head is clear and you use the right strategy. Using the secular, values-neutral language of social psychology, the author stresses that the listener look out for herself and pay attention to what's happening in her life. A stimulating guide to the major challenges of personal responsibility for the mid-life woman. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine [Published: DEC/ JAN 02]
