Real life for women in midlife shouldn't include comparisons to Jennifer Aniston says health journalist Niki Bezzant.
She's talked to hundreds of women in New Zealand who face their 40's and 5o's trying to live up to standards of beauty and achievement that are impossible to meet.
In her book, aging well means aging with purpose and joy which requires self-compassion as well as a roadmap to negotiate the physical and emotional changes that come with age.
The new book is called The Everything Guide: Hormones, health and happiness in menopause, midlife and beyond.
