Please join us at Elm Street Books on Saturday, May 13th from 2:30-4:30pm for an author signing with Alison Jacobson, author of Daily Inspirations for Midlife Women: A Guide to Peace, Joy, Confidence, and Abundance.
Alison Jacobson is a motivational speaker, author, and coach for women in midlife who want to
reclaim their dreams before they took on the roles of mom, partner, and caregiver, get past their
self-doubt, achieve their goals, and live a kick-ass life.
She is the host of the podcast Midlife Mavericks and founder of the group Midlife Mavericks –
Fabulous, Fierce, Females!
She has been quoted in news outlets including CNN Health, USA Today and CBS Today and
featured on numerous podcasts. Every day she inspires and motivates women to Shut the Fear
Up to become the confident, happy, and successful Goddesses they’re meant to be. She leads
by example, having completed the 2022 NYC Marathon at 57, having never run before.
Alison’s passion for helping women overcome tragedy and fear was prompted by her own
hardships – the death of her infant son, a divorce that left her broke, her second son’s
intellectual disabilities and the rapid physical decline of her second husband due to Primary
Progressive MS.
The culmination of her experiences has led her to become a sought-after coach and speaker on
the issues women face, particularly in midlife as career options shift, aging parents require care,
marriages crumble and the fear of the future sets in. And now, her book, Daily Inspirations for
Midlife Women – A Guide to Peace, Joy, Confidence and Abundance is a daily dose of her
motivation.
Alison’s pragmatism coupled with her deep spirituality and infectious energy resonates with
many women who are questioning who they want to be in the second chapter of their life and
how to become confident, happy, and successful.
