Summary

In a culture where middle age is thought of as a downward slope into sensible shoes and meaningless existence, we can redefine the second half of life. We can shape it into decades of fulfillment, fun, strength, and purpose.

Because, my friend, God has a lot in store for you in your second half. We are His gift to this world at every age and in every season, and it's time to embrace it!

So today, Dawn Barton is here to encourage all the sisters who are almost in, or in the middle of, or wondering about the second half of life. It’s time to take off those sensible shoes and dance our way into the best seasons of our lives!
