Story
When Ada Calhoun found herself in the throes of a midlife crisis, she thought that she had no right to complain. She was married with children and a good career. So why did she feel miserable? And why did it seem that other Generation X women were miserable, too? Calhoun decided to find some answers. She looked into housing costs, HR trends, credit card debt averages, and divorce data. At every turn, she saw a pattern: sandwiched between the Boomers and Millennials, Gen X women were facing new problems as they entered middle age, problems that were being largely overlooked.

Publisher's Summary
Ciencia, arte y oportuniades en la madurez. Un estudio audaz y apasionante de las nuevas investigaciones que replantean un futuro mejor y más prometedor para las personas de mediana edad. Reimaginar la vida nos enseña que lo que se ha dado en llamar la «crisis de la mediana edad» no existe. Es un mito, una ilusión. Barbara Bradley Hagerty desmiente la teoría de que la madurez es la etapa en la que la vida inicia un declive inexorable. Con pericia periodística, la autora aborda la cuestión con la que lidian en la actualidad ella y la mayoría de sus amigos y colegas: ¿cómo crecer y avanzar cuando se llega a la edad madura? Al igual que una reportera con un plazo límite de entrega, la autora entrevista a expertos del mundo de la neurociencia, la psicología, la biología, la genética y la sociología. Escucha numerosas historias de personas que se abren paso a través del campo minado de la madurez, personas que han sufrido las pérdidas, los traumas y los trastornos que inevitablemente aparecen en esa etapa, pero que después han resurgido con un mejor propósito de vida. En el transcurso de su investigación, Barbara Bradley experimenta su propia transformación de persona madura y, tras analizar a fondo todos los datos de su investigación, llega a una conclusión: la madurez es el punto álgido de la vida. Nuestros cerebros trabajan más eficientemente en esa etapa, nuestros cuerpos son capaces de desarrollar una mayor resiliencia, nuestras relaciones sentimentales pueden ser más satisfactorias. La madurez, argumenta la autora, es renovación: es el momento de renegociar nuestros propósitos, reenfocar nuestras energías y transformar nuestros pensamientos en relación al mundo y a nosotros mismos. Reimaginar la vida nos enseña a rediseñar el mapa de la edad madura y a trazar un rumbo dinámico y asertivo enfocado en la comprensión de la salud, las relaciones sentimentales e incluso el futuro.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“Barbara Bradley Hagerty is a wise and engaging guide through the possibilities…of middle age.”—Daniel H. Pink, author of To Sell Is Human and Drive
A dynamic and inspiring exploration of the new science that is redrawing the future for people in their forties, fifties, and sixties for the better—and for good.
There’s no such thing as an inevitable midlife crisis, Barbara Bradley Hagerty writes in this provocative, hopeful book. It’s a myth, an illusion. New scientific research explodes the fable that midlife is a time when things start to go downhill for everybody. In fact, midlife can be a great new adventure, when you can embrace fresh possibilities, purposes, and pleasures. In Life Reimagined, Hagerty explains that midlife is about renewal: It’s the time to renegotiate your purpose, refocus your relationships, and transform the way you think about the world and yourself. Drawing from emerging information in neurology, psychology, biology, genetics, and sociology—as well as her own story of midlife transformation—Hagerty redraws the map for people in midlife and plots a new course forward in understanding our health, our relationships, even our futures.
