by Stella Fosse (Author), Diana Rosinus (Cover Design by)
When Stella Fosse awoke on her sixtieth birthday, she was surprised that nothing had changed. She had crossed the line from Princess to Crone-but contrary to stereotypes she swam four times a week, had lovers and a thriving career.
Why had no one told her that life after sixty could be this good?
For the next decade, Fosse wrote about every topic she wished someone had shared with her at sixty, from creativity and beauty to purpose and power. The essays collected in Rock On will inspire readers to:
- Reignite their creative spark
- Enjoy the body they have now
- Advocate for better healthcare
- Make confident, powerful money choices
- Cultivate a juicy, purposeful life
Power, Pleasure, and Purpose After Sixty
Every year, two million women in the U.S. turn 65-and most will live for another twenty years or more. Far from winding down, this chapter of life can be a powerful new beginning. With careers and full-time parenting in the rearview mirror, women have the freedom to rediscover their vitality, purpose, and wild creative spark.
Featuring inspiring profiles of trailblazing women and thought-provoking questions for reflection, this book invites every reader to become the woman she was always meant to be. No more holding back-this is your time to rise, reclaim, and reinvent.
Rock On is the essential guidebook to embrace the challenges and celebrate the possibilities of life after sixty. Fans of Ashton Applewhite's This Chair Rocks will find a bold invitation to reject ageist stereotypes and live out loud. Like Joan Price's Naked at Our Age, Rock On celebrates the beauty and pleasure of women's bodies exactly as they are. And in the spirit of Julia Cameron's It's Never Too Late to Begin Again, it lights the way back to joy, curiosity, and creative freedom.
This is not the end of the story. It's the start of something extraordinary.
