Overview
Many individuals perceive adulthood as a period of stability and significant decision-making. However, for many people, midlife feels more like a crossroads than a plateau. This book is for adults who seek meaning beyond their daily lives. It is not a guide to quick fixes or abstract ideas. Instead, it is a psychological guide based on research, therapy, and real-life experience. Finding meaning is not a goal; it is a conversation with yourself, your values, and the world around you that lasts your whole life. This book offers adults a psychological guide rooted in research, therapy, and lived experience. With tools from CBT, ACT, logotherapy, and mindfulness, it helps you live authentically-finding meaning of life in everyday choices and continuing the dialogue with yourself and the world.
