You know things now you could not have known before.
You've lived and loved, gained and lost, built the career and raised the kids. You've survived the thing you didn't think you'd survive. You've gotten it right sometimes and wrong at other times. You have been around long enough to know what matters.
And yet somewhere along the way, the signals started arriving from the culture, from the medical system, and from the mirror, all saying “your season has passed.”
Marianne Williamson calls this the societal undertow. And she has spent decades teaching her students how to counter it.
Midlife Awakening: Creating a Miraculous Next Chapter is her answer to a question: What is the second half of life for?
Twenty years ago, at 50, Marianne wrote a book about aging. Two decades later she looked back and realized she hadn't known nearly as much as she thought she did. This course is the product of that honesty.
Here, you will learn that time is not a line but a spiral. The lessons you didn't understand before come around again. The things you didn't clear, you can clear now. The mistakes you didn't atone for, the people you didn't forgive, the grief you never let yourself feel: all of it is baggage. And as Marianne puts it, a plane can't take off carrying too much baggage.
Meet Your Teacher
Marianne Williamson is a spiritual teacher, lecturer, and New York Times best-selling author of 15 books, including A Return to Love, A Woman's Worth, and The Age of Miracles. For four decades, her work, grounded in A Course in Miracles, has helped millions of people trade fear for love as the organizing principle of their lives.
She wrote her first book on aging at 50, certain she understood the territory. Twenty years more of living taught her otherwise. Midlife Awakening is what she knows now.
“There is a societal undertow that says as you get to a certain age, you're useless, you're invisible. We have to own our capacity to counter the undertow and create something that lifts us higher than we have ever been.”
~ Marianne Williamson
