Minx Up Your Life!

Book excerpt: What do you get when you combine the insights of a professional life coach with the very human experience of being single, female and over 45? You get Minx Up Your Life! An inspirational call to action for single women over 45 to start embracing love, life and living for the moment. Carrie deals with the challenges and issues that single, older women face in a positive and realistic way. She also offers insightful and tangible solutions, while championing an exciting and tantalising alternative to settling down to a life of bingo, arts & crafts and a houseful of cats! The book openly discusses issues around sex, dating and relationships for women over 45. It also confronts our culture’s tired, old and stereotypical beliefs about ageing as a female in today’s society. Minx Up Your Life! introduces the idea of beliefs and core values and how they affect women’s everyday attitude and behaviour. To ‘Think Minx’ is to embrace a new mindset, which increases self-confidence and self-esteem. The Minx in this book, is unashamedly a playful and joyful single woman in mid-life, who is fulling her life’s full potential. Carrie’s rallying call is for her readers to “Come On, my fellow Minxes, let’s start living!” as she invites them to see mid-life as a potentially exciting and thrilling time, rich with possibilities and opportunities to stretch their wings and truly fly.
