About the Book
New York
Times bestselling author, Joan Anderson, gives women practical advice
and inspiration for building creative, independent, and fulfilling lives
in this groundbreaking guide.
After years of focusing on the needs of others as a wife and a mother,
Anderson devoted a year to rediscovering herself and reinvigorating her
dreams. She chronicled her search in her memoir,
A Year by the Sea. The questions she asked herself and the
insights she gained during that year became the core of the popular
weekend workshops Anderson developed to help women figure out how-after
being all things to all people-they could finally become what they need
to be for themselves. A Weekend to Change Your
Life brings the techniques of the workshops to women everywhere,
and provides a step-by-step path readers can follow at their own pace,
alone or with others.
In this book, Anderson draws on her life and the experiences of the
women she meets at her workshops in order to show her readers how to
move beyond the roles they play in relationship to others and claim
their own individuality. Through narrative illustrations and gentle
instruction, she illuminates the rewards of nurturing long-neglected
talents, revitalizing plans sacrificed to the demands of family life,
and redefining oneself by embracing new possibilities.
