So alt war ich noch nie

Finally, a book that makes you excited about getting older! What can I expect when I turn fifty? Where can I find role models for this stage of life? There are eight million women between fifty and sixty in Germany. How is it possible that the majority of them are invisible? With her own 50th birthday in sight and driven by curiosity, Stephanie Hielscher set out to find women in the middle of their lives. She met with actresses, authors, entrepreneurs, politicians, and doctors, discussing aging and the topics that come with it: menopause, separations, financial planning, career setbacks – but also new opportunities, bold changes, and great freedoms. In fact, she discovers that there is so much for women over fifty to look forward to. This book contains the essence of her meetings and conversations, along with countless experiences, ideas, and advice that inspire and truly make you eager to embrace aging.
