Thirty Something in 2000

It's so refreshing to know that I'm not alone. I'm 31 and have just recently started to explore my creativity. Turning thirty has opened me up. That's the theme that runs through this wonderful book....being open to whatever life brings. Hearing how the featured women are dealing with some of the same issues confronting me helped me to take a skip back to look at the big picture. When you curl up with this book, you feel like you're with a thoughtful group of friends. I loved it!
