À propos de cet audio
What does it really mean to be a grown-up in today's world? We assume that once we "get it together" with the right job, marry the right person, have children, and buy a home, all is settled and well. But adulthood presents varying levels of growth and is rarely the respite of stability we expected. Turbulent emotional shifts can take place anywhere between the ages of 35 and 70 when we question the choices we've made, realize our limitations, and feel stuck - commonly known as the "midlife crisis".
Jungian psychoanalyst James Hollis believes that it is only in the second half of life that we can truly come to know who we are and thus create a life that has meaning. In Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life, Hollis explores the ways we can grow and evolve to fully become ourselves when the traditional roles of adulthood aren't quite working for us. Offering wisdom to anyone facing a career that no longer seems fulfilling, a long-term relationship that has shifted, or family transitions that raise issues of aging and mortality, Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life provides a reassuring message and a crucial bridge across this critical passage of adult development.

Life changing read
I have been struggling in the Middle Passage, for a long time and this book, recommend by my psychologist, has made such a huge difference. My life wouldn’t be the same going forward without it.

Excellent book…narration not so!
It would be preferable if James Hollis narrated this book. It sounded more like a monotonous sermon throughout the book, to the point that I often found my mind wandering and had to go back to replay what I’ve missed. Almost to the end there is a set of questions for consideration and the narrator skipped one! Fortunately, I have the printed version that is excellent.
Consider buying only the printed version of the book as a companion to the also excellent “Through the Dark Woods” audiobook, narrated by James Hollis himself.
Returning it!

Excellent
I really enjoyed this book. I found it very helpful and interesting. And I loved the narrator. I hope to find more books narrated by him.

Lost in words...
If first you don't get lost in thought then you get lost in words you don't understand: transcendence, soul, self, ego, etc. This book is as shallow as a church sermon with the difference that a sermon doesn't pretend to be something else. From my listening experience so far, it seems that 1) Jung's offsprings are not a credit to his legacy, and 2) authors who feel the need to put their "PhD" after their name usually use it as a means to mask the hollowness of their discourse. If life were that simple, if the search for meaning could be resolved by such platitudes, then it would be disgusting. Fortunately, it isn't.
