Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life: Growing Up

What does it truly mean to be an adult in today's society? We often think that once we have our lives in order with a good job, a suitable spouse, children, and a house, everything will be stable and content. However, adulthood is not always the steady and settled phase we expect it to be. We may experience turbulent emotional changes between the ages of thirty-five and seventy, questioning the choices we've made, realizing our limitations, and feeling trapped in what is commonly referred to as a "midlife crisis."

James Hollis, a Jungian psycho-analyst, believes that it is during the second half of our lives that we can truly understand our true selves and create a meaningful life. In his book, "Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life," Hollis explores how we can grow and evolve to become our authentic selves when the traditional roles of adulthood no longer serve us. He introduces a new approach to uncovering and embracing who we truly are.

This book offers guidance and wisdom for those facing a career that no longer fulfills them, a long-term relationship that has shifted, or family transitions that bring up issues of aging and mortality. "Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life" delivers a reassuring message and serves as a vital bridge during this crucial phase of adult development.
