Summary

Internationally recognized coach and New York Times best-selling author Cheryl Richardson has toured the world empowering others to make lasting change. But when Richardson's own life no longer worked as it once had, a persistent inner voice offered unmistakable guidance: It was time to reevaluate her life to uncover what really mattered.

Waking Up in Winter is the candid and revelatory account of how at midlife, Richardson found renewed contentment and purpose through a heroic inward journey. The unfolding story, told through intimate journal entries, follows Richardson from the first gentle nudges of change to a thoughtfully reimagined life - a soulful spring awakening.

With an experienced coach's intuition and an artist's eye, Richardson reexamines everything - her marriage, her work, her friendships, and her priorities - gracefully shedding parts of the self that no longer serve along the way.

In the end she not only discovers what really matters at midlife; she invites readers to join her in the inquiry process by providing thought-provoking questions designed to usher them through their own seasons of transformation.

Offering up Richardson's most powerful teaching tool yet - her own life - Waking Up in Winter takes listeners on a brave spiritual adventure that shows us all how to live a more authentic and meaningful life.

Special bonus material: Cheryl has included a special section in this audio program where she discusses the series of questions at the end of the book. These questions (and the discussion) are meant to encourage your own transformational journey. You can use them with a journal, in discussions with a friend or support partner, or with your book group.

Editor reviews

Editors Select, December 2017

Cheryl Richardson's new book feels different from her previous works; she opens up a bit about her own challenges during a few tough years and how she needed to rethink every aspect of her own life in order to reestablish her balance. The concept of Waking Up in Winter appealed to me - I definitely feel the exhaustion of the advancing cold, and Cheryl Richardson will always deliver a positive, actionable message. She is a seasoned and reassuring narrator, and the audiobook includes a special section at the end to spark self-discovery. If, like me, you are a bit resistant to self-help books but also need a little inspiration in December, Cheryl Richardson might be the coach for you this season. —Christina, Audible Editor

A wonderful reminder of doing what you love

I love Cheryl Richardson and have followed her work now for some time. She is a wise woman and shares her teachings freely, beautifully and authentically.
I resonate with so much of this book, despite being 39... but I feel I've always been an old soul, connecting with older wiser women.
A wonderful book, that no doubt will be something I return to every few years to remind myself ... what's important.
