Radiant: Embracing Your Power and Beauty at Midlife
/
It’s somewhat rare that a book will take my breath away, but this one certainly did!
Tess Whitehurst’s Radiant: Embracing Your Power and Beauty at Midlife is a refreshing take on what it means to thrive as you age gracefully. The words in her book resonate deeply with me, not only because I myself am experiencing mid-life but because it’s a transition I’ve been thinking about ever since my teen years.
When is a woman in her ‘prime’? How will my 20s, 30s, and 40s feel? How can I empower myself and stay grounded as I move through the decades?
Those are questions I’ve wondered about for many years, as I’ve resisted the pressure of society placed on women to be and look a certain way— and now here I am.
Tess’s book is a fantastic resource for anyone navigating midlife who wants to feel empowered instead of not-good-enough. I wish I had read this book in my twenties, to be honest!
It’s filled with practical advice, journal prompts, and self-care exercises that any woman can benefit from.
As Tess says:
Midlife is your time to shine.
Let’s be honest. Maiden, Mother, and Crone are great but they don’t encapsulate the fabulous fullness of the feminine experience.
The Queen, though. The Queen has got you.
With spells, rituals, journal prompts, meditations, and more, this book will inspire you to reign over your life with mastery and be the Radiant Queen you truly are.
I love that!
Tess’s practical wisdom and down-to-earth insights in the book are life-changing, and so is her approach. As Tess says on her website:
I believe life is magical.
Every day is an opportunity to experience beauty. With each passing year, we get to become wiser and happier. We get to evolve, heal, and expand. We get to spiral even more masterfully into the center of our power. We get to transform our challenges into blessings. We get to set in motion lasting positive change.
When you join Tess on the journey of reading this book, it offers you beautiful, tangible, practical ways of stepping into your power and activating your inner radiant queen. She even has healthy recipes in there too!
Highly recommend this book.
