Description
"You are going to die."
When Cherryl Thompson heard those five words at age fifty, it was a wake-up call. After decades of hiding behind silence and using food as a shield, she realized her "tomorrows" had finally run out. At the edge of her own undoing, she chose to take action.
The Winding Road is the intimate and transformative memoir of a woman who decided to stop shrinking and start rising. From roller skates and candy bars to treadmills and protein bars, Cherryl shares the hard-won wisdom of a life reclaimed and now celebrates her seventies in style. Thompson shares the raw truth of what it takes to reclaim an identity lost to shame and self-neglect.
In this book, you will discover:The Power of Resilience: How Thompson shed 150 pounds and transitioned from a "coach potato" to a "trailblazer" who hikes the Alps.
Professional Empowerment: Lessons on finding your voice in environments where you are overlooked or undervalued.
Practical Tools: Unlike a standard memoir, this guide includes 21 days of mindfulness and 10 helpful habits to fuel your own personal transformation.
Whether facing a health crisis, feeling stuck in your career, or simply wondering if your best years are behind you, this book is a beacon of hope. It is a powerful reminder that your past does not define your future. Your winding road is waiting to lead you home.
