    About this audiobook

    New York Times bestselling author Joan Anderson gives women practical advice and inspiration for building creative, independent, and fulfilling lives through discovering who they truly are and who they can be.

    Joan Anderson's bestselling A Year by the Sea revealed a far larger than expected constituency, in the form of thousands of women struggling to realize their full potential. After years of focusing on the needs of others as a wife and mother, Anderson devoted a year to rediscovering herself and reinvigorating her dreams. The questions she asked herself and the insights she gained became the core of the popular weekend workshops Anderson developed to help women figure out how-after being all things to all people-they can finally become what they need to be for themselves. A Weekend to Change Your Life brings Anderson's techniques to women everywhere, providing a step-by-step path readers can follow at their own pace.

    Drawing on her own life and on the experiences of the women she meets at her workshops, Anderson shows women how to move beyond the roles they play in relationship to others and reclaim their individuality. Through 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.

      I read "A Year by the Sea" and "An Unfinished Marriage" by this author and found them interesting, so I decided to give this one a try when I stumbled across it in the library on my way to another book. I was pretty disappointed. I enjoyed the other books because they are about her life and experiences, but this was more of a how-to book and not a very good one at that. I'm always suspicious of authors who use the stories of others to support their theories, or to show how great their particular method works. They leave me wondering about the other side of the story. If you've read Joan Anderson's other books, I recommend that you skip this one. Joan's life wasn't changed in a weekend and yours won't be either.

      I read this because I like her other books. However, this seem overboard.
