LUCY RYAN
Have you thought of a good autumn read yet? I saw this author on a news
programme and decided to find out a little more about Lucy Ryan. Well, I liked what
I read about her, and the website accurately portrayed her personality as I saw it on
the news review.
If you decide to have a look and read any of her books do let us know what
you thought. I have given the link to her website, and a recent book review from
The Times. I would love to hear from you.
Best wishes, Jo Kinsey

Revolting Women -
Why midlife women are walking out and what to do about it.
My new book is drawing on my research that fills a longstanding data gap.
Professional women over 50 are faced with a triple-whammy of discrimination:
they are not male, young, or linear in their career paths. As a result, they are leav-
ing corporate life and taking their careers into their own hands. And with it, they
take their abundant wisdom, energy, and ambition.
This book shows that assumptions about declining midlife motivation and ener-
gy just aren’t true for women and reveals how you can retain and develop this inval-
uable talent pool with a better understanding of their challenges and a few simple
changes.
It’s a key read for any who have experienced this or want to change the
diversity approach within their business.
