I’m proud to share that my book You’re Not Too Old, and It’s Not Too Late: Weekly Practices for Meaning, Mindfulness & New Possibilities at Midlife & Beyond has been awarded the Literary Titan Gold Book Award!
The Literary Titan Gold Book Award recognizes books that contain excellent writing and original content. Awarded to both fiction and non-fiction, it highlights the meticulous development of unique characters or subjects within an engaging context.
“Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, “You’re Not Too Old, and It’s Not Too Late: Weekly Practices of Meaning, Mindfulness, and New Possibilities at Midlife and Beyond” by psychologist and educator Ilene Berns-Zare will prove to be extraordinarily accessible and of maximum value to the non-specialist general reader dealing with the stress of a midlife crisis or seeking to enrich their enjoyment of life in their later years. Insightful, motivational, and ‘real world’ practical, “You’re Not Too Old, and It’s Not Too Late” is unreservedly recommended for personal, professional, community, and college/university library Self-Help/Self-Improvement collections and supplemental Aging/Longevity curriculum studies lists.”

“Written for those navigating the ups and downs, joys and challenges, of midlife through older adulthood, each relatively short—and quite accessible—chapter serves as a trusty, supportive guidebook, providing research-backed tools and imaginative exercises on focused areas, ripe for encouraging personal reflection and healthy growth.”
– Reviewed by Jonah Meyer for The US Review of Books
“…A generous and thoughtful book, it offers companionship, perspective, and a believable faith that a person can still grow wiser, more open, more alive. I’d recommend it (to)most readers in midlife and beyond who want reflective, research-aware encouragement rather than hard-edged self-help, and also to anyone standing at a threshold, wondering whether change still belongs to them. This book’s answer is yes.”
