Age is a gift not everybody is given. When a life-threatening acid-attack left Katie Piper physically and visibly scarred at just 24, her approach to ageing was irrevocably changed: she now sees each passing year as a reminder of the privilege of being alive. Over a decade on from sharing her story for the first time, Katie reflects on what it means to age well within a world that has too often made women feel irrelevant or invisible for going through the natural ageing process. From how to know your worth to how to take up space in a society that tells you to be small, this book will help you cultivate a confidence you can depend on and find the real beauty in getting older.

Our society tells us over and over that if we’re going to achieve anything, we’d better do it while we’re young. We fixate on stories of prodigies; we put our children in piano lessons or language classes as toddlers, hoping to give them the best shot at success we can. As for ourselves, too many people feel it’s too late to change the course of their own lives. Whether we are at the start of our careers and sense we’re on the wrong path, or feeling unsettled in our late or middle years, we all wonder how we can reinvent ourselves? Late bloomers – individuals who experience significant success later in life – offer lessons for people who feel frustrated. This book encourages people to think about themselves as potential late bloomers and to discover and encourage and advocate for late blooming in others. After all, it’s never too late to discover our hidden talents and accomplish our goals.

When do you become an adult? What does it mean to grow up? And what are the experiences that propel us forward – or keep us stuck? As we get older, we pass many milestones, but for some of us it can feel as if adulthood is always just out of reach. Journalist and psychotherapist-in-training Moya Sarner goes on a journey into what growing up really involves, and how we do it again and again throughout our lives. She draws on case studies, as well as her training, and theories of child psychology, psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and more, to explore what it means to be a ‘grown up’ and how we can meet the challenges and opportunities of every stage of our lives.
