Navigating Midlife: Women Becoming Themselves (book)
by Robyn Vickers-Willis .
Paperback, 235 pages, excellent condition.
This powerful, insightful book offers women vital possibilities for meaningful and profound change in how they choose to live the second half of their lives.
Addressing those women 35 and over who are at a crossroads and questioning the multiple aspects of their lives-job, marriage, children-it offers strategies to help them find out what they actually want to do with the next part of their lives and how to achieve their goals. With deep understanding and practical wisdom, it illustrates why it is normal to suffer depression, anger, loss, and doubt in midlife, and emphasizes the importance of embracing these turbulent feelings, rather than ignoring or running away from them.

Craigs Workplace Giving for Christmas in Waikato focused on front line
It has been a delight for us to again coordinate the annual Christmas-time Workplace Giving by Craigs Investment Partners' Hamilton branch.
We've now passed on $13,100 in grants of various sizes from Craigs and its staff to the five Waikato community organisations they have chosen this year, namely Cambridge Lifeskills, Cambridge Tree Trust, Hamilton Land Search & Rescue, Paws 4 Life (who provided the photo below) and Waikato Women's Refuge - Te Whakaruruhau.
Quinton de Bruin, Investment Adviser at Craigs says: “We’re really proud of our Workplace Giving program here at Craigs.”
“Employees opt in to donate from their monthly pay cheque, building up funds over the year which we then donate to charities in need at Christmas time.
“Craigs also matches employee donations dollar for dollar, up to $500 per person per annum, so it’s a great way to be able to make a meaningful impact in our local community,” says Quinton.
We say well played Craigs Investment Partners!
