Welcome to Women of a Certain Stage! Our name reflects the understanding that menopause is not limited to women of a certain age—it can occur at any stage, from puberty onward.

Your heart may never be the same; the loss is always part of you, but you can find joy and happiness; you have to fight for yourself, and this group I am forming will be a great foundation to help you, and we can help each other as we stumble along the path – celebrating our triumphs and helping us struggle through the pain. My Story I’ve not read many books of women at this time in life and dealing with challenges of menopause so definitely eye opening and engaging.As it's written in the first person, her experiences and thoughts are clear and oh so familiar. Many of us will know the changes you feel as a parent of growing children, the fear of your own parents' mortality, and the way others see aging women. He also discovered that the distinctly odd poet Byron referred to such women – usually thought to be spinsters – in 1817: "She was not old, nor young, nor at the years/Which certain people call a certain age,/Which yet the most uncertain age appears."

Eliza is a mom, actor, and part-time estate agent. And she’s finding menopause incredibly difficult, they do not educate women enough on this (angry ramble on this later).

The expression "[person] of a certain age" likewise dates to the early 1700s, but the certain age is not consistent from one instance to the next. For example, from " Letter 38, On the Scotch Laws Relative to Marriage" (May 10, 1775), in Anonymous, Letters From Edinburgh, Written in the Years 1774 and 1775, volume 2: One of the most profound and difficult times in my life came when we found out my husband had a terminal disease. The devastation would be an understatement he had Parkinson and Lewy body dementia. Like other anthologies, some contributions spoke to me more than others. Reneé Pettitt-Schipp’s description of a young asylum seeker’s hope brought tears to my eyes. Goldie Goldbloom’s recollections of Max made me wish I knew him personally. Carly Findlay’s words hurt, as I imagined each scenario she described, but they also left me with hope because there are women like Carly who speak truth into the lives of others.ja no lubati jõepaadiseiklust. mis tõesti oli olemas, aga teda ikka andis oodata - minu meelest ikka jube pikalt oli siin sellist... bridgetjoneslikku jauramist. ma saan aru, et see on kõik britilik self-deprecation ja just nii peab olema, st peategelane PEAB sattuma alailma hästi piinlikesse olukordadesse. aga veidi liiga palju sai mu jaoks sellist... eksituste komöödiat ja jaburaid möödarääkimisstseene ja veel jaburamaid, ma ei teagi, tagaajamisstseene? ja kõige selle taustal eriti ekstreemsed menopausinähud. I'm pleased to find this was written by Fiona Walker, who has been a long time favourite author of mine. Once I realised this I could clearly see it was written in Fiona's tone.

The Comtesse de V was a woman of a certain age, and she therefore owed to her perruquier, her perfumer (who supplied the various washes for her complexion), her milliner, and her femme de chambre, that juvenile appearance which she still had in the eyes of those who beheld her only for the first time.” But I’m guessing that this book was aimed mainly at women of a certain age and will mainly be read by them.
