Discover how to embrace your future years with confidence, financial security, and wellness, even if you're facing it alone.
Are you on the threshold of your golden years where the quiet mornings that once buzzed with family gatherings turn to silent evenings filled with anxiety?
You've likely noticed the quiet shifts in your daily life –- the tasks that take a little longer, the meals that become quieter, and the sense of isolation that can accompany aging solo.
You are now standing at the crossroads between the familiar paths of your past and the uncharted territory of your future as a single senior woman.
And the thought of navigating this new journey alone sends a wave of uncertainty down your spine.
Know that you are not alone. More than a quarter of women - divorced, widowed, or never married - live alone and face the same crossroads.
You may feel that planning for this solo journey is daunting. Questions about financial security, health, and maintaining social connections swirl in your mind.
And you begin to wonder…Can I still age with joy, adventure, and confidence?
Yes! Let this book be your roadmap to aging solo.
This book goes into the heart of what it means to age alone. It acknowledges your fears of isolation, financial security, and the daunting task of maintaining health and wellness without a partner's support.
With the E.M.P.O.W.E.R. Path and its 8 stages, this book empowers you to rediscover your identity, build meaningful social connections, and easily manage finances, all while aging purposefully and independently.
Inside, you'll discover:
  • The challenges and societal stigma of aging solo, and how you can overcome your struggles, seize opportunities, and plan for a bright future
  • 7 common misconceptions about aging solo and how looking at the facts can put your mind at ease
  • Effective strategies to manage your finances with confidence so you can enjoy what you want even on a tight budget
  • The “bare bones” of what you need to know and do about planning for your future – even though the very idea of estate planning causes near paralysis
  • How to achieve optimum physical and mental health (including techniques on navigating the healthcare system, exercise, diet, and mindful activities)
  • Practical steps to boost self-confidence and develop a resilient mindset to navigate the journey of aging solo with strength and confidence
  • Strategies for self-awareness and self-care so you can maintain a strong sense of self and personal fulfillment
  • How to foster connections to fill your life with new friendships and purpose
  • Tips for simplifying your home and your life including strategies to make your living space inspiring, comfortable, and joyful
The idea of aging alone may seem emotionally challenging and overwhelming, and you might feel like you won’t be capable of handling it.
Ease your worries because this book is designed to help you transition gradually and build the confidence to navigate solo living successfully.
Remember, you have the strength within you to create a confident and fulfilling future. The best is yet to come and you can make it happen.
Ready to step into a future where 'aging solo' translates to 'Confident Soloist?'

Even if you aren't single, this book has great suggestions for women in transitional periods of life such as retirement, new home locations, moved with employment opportunities. Without spoiling anything, I just want to say that there are reminders in the book that we pretty much have be advised on for a long time now, but it also offers things we may not have thought of. Such a great resource to have!

This book is so useful in easing fears of being single and aging. I know there are a lot of women out there besides me who think about and fear the future. The author, Ellen Dawson, has some great advice for planning ahead. One of the most important things she suggests is to get your finances in order possibly using her tiered plan of most important to least important. One of the things I could work on is to build relationships, as an introvert I find it difficult at times which isn't helpful. Overall, this book has some great advice. Let it EMPOWER (empower path) you for a healthier and brighter future as a single woman.

I’m definitely in the category of aging or living solo and I have been struggling with it since my divorce. I really appreciate the way this author puts it down with the EMPOWER path. It became clear to me that I need to address some areas where I’m not living life to the full east and focussing on the positives rather than the negatives will improve my mood considerably. Thanks for the reminder! The chapter on money really hit home with me and I have been reassessing my financial situation with this advice. This book has inspired me to live my life more positively! Highly recommend it!

Where was this book six months ago? I repatriated back after 10 years living overseas. No family, a few friends but basically starting again after my marriage broke down. This has very practical advice that is easy to implement and bring to fruition. I will keep this book handy as I begin my new life solo and I hope it’s as useful to you as it has been to me. Five star!
