Just Tell Me What To Do book cover—midlife memoir of personal growth by Lauren Michele Fields

Wife, mother, executive, burnout—I’d performed my way into mid-life misery. Determined to find another way, I set out in search of a “happily ever after” I could get behind. What I discovered was a profound, transformative journey of healing. One that answered the questions I’d been asking and also the ones I didn’t know to ask. This experience revealed a framework to approach life I never imagined possible.

After questioning what “it all” was giving me, I put “former” in front of most of my titles—wife, executive, people pleaser.
