Wendy Valentine’s debut book is an inspirational memoir, rallying cry, and practical guide for Gen X women embracing midlife as a time to craft their dream lives. Facing challenges like unemployment, divorce, anxiety, grief, and illness, Wendy held onto a vision of freedom and joy, which led her to buy an RV and travel across America. In Women Waking Up, she shares her F.R.E.E.D.O.M. method, offering seven steps and guidance to help women navigate love, career, health, finance, personal growth, family, friends, and leisure for a fulfilled midlife.
