Turning 40 Is Fabulous

You’ll find this book an easy transition into your 40s (or any age) with an added comedic twist. You may be standing somewhere right now, questioning, Is this actually happening to me? Let me reassure you now, you’re not alone. This well-kept secret of change that women experience is no longer a secret that you feel you need to keep private. Let’s start sharing and, hopefully, this book will encourage future discussion. I was fortunate to have my grandma in my life while growing up. As I reminisced about my childhood, I never witnessed my grandma fanning herself from a hot flash and then immediately being cold. I brought this memory up with my mom and her response came as a shock: Why do you think the back door was always open? My inside voice answered, She was waiting for me. I guess I was wrong. Some of the experiences in this book may be real, while others just imagined. I can’t remember which experiences are true and which are just imagined (brain fog, anyone?). These experiences have brought the self-proclaimed comedian out of me, which has turned my midlife (how did that happen?) into a humorous yet comforting journey.
