Would you like me to read you a scary story for Halloween? The one where all the belongings and papers of your family fall on your shoulders?!
A group of powerful and inspirational women impart their wisdom about career and life experiences in Power of What’s NEXT: Bold Moves By Design.
This isn’t a typical leadership journey. It is inspired by the idea that women over 50 are ‘not done yet’ and are living their best moments. These stories of transformation, resilience, and moving forward create a mosaic of what’s possible at every decade. Through moves, bold leaps into new roles, these women reflect on what grit and persistence can look like and the power to move through to new beginnings. Women executives and industry leaders discuss how to lead through career reinvention, new roles, and embracing letting go to find what’s next. Whether you are mid-career or planning an exit after corporate, there are strategies to help you make your next bold move. Uplifting, witty, inspirational, soulful, Power of What’s NEXT: Bold Moves By Design is an anthem for all women to know that anything is possible at every age, especially in the second and third quarters of our lives.

Ghost or Guardian
Digestible chapters that contain real substance – you can really get your affairs in order and lift the weight of guilt from leaving a mess for those that survive you. It’s your choice! Cyndy’s accounts of what can possibly go wrong when you don’t have a life exit plan with a healthy dose of much needed humor gives the right motivation to think about these things when you’re young and healthy. A nice step in adulting that everyone needs, because no one tells you how to face these things until now.

Ghost or Guardian
Cyndy delivers a “morbid” topic in such a light-hearted way that almost makes it FUN to plan all the essentials that need to be taken care of. Don’t haunt your loved ones after you’re gone – please pick up a copy of this book, plan for the inevitable, and be a guardian!

Ghost or Guardian
I enjoyed reading this book for its usefulness in getting through the stages of estate settling. Cyndy Wulfsberg has an organized plan to work through different tricky issues involved in either settling your own estate or those that you find yourself involved in. Her humor makes the subject very readable, even enjoyable.

Power of What’s Next
Heartfelt, hopeful, and so honest – this is the book that women need to read, regardless of where they are in their careers, to be blown away by the raw wisdom offered up by these courageous authors. What happens after sunsetting one career pathway? What are the possibilities when everyone else is winding down into retirement?
These women show in diverse ways that the learning and growth doesn’t need to slow down; through finding their truest, happiest selves, some are just really revving up the engine to get started!
Would recommend for those who are craving a different perspective and not looking for advice limited to climbing the career ladder. The book challenges us to think of the many “nexts” that are in store for each of us!
