{"product_id":"this-is-forty-living-authentically","title":"This is Forty: Living Authentically","description":"For a long time, survival looked like success.\nIf she could endure, adapt, and keep going, she believed she was doing life right. Strength meant pushing through. Love meant earning it. Rest felt like something other people deserved.\nIn This Is Forty, Korina Maestas tells the truth about what it took to stop surviving and start living.\nThrough childhood trauma, conditional love, motherhood, and healing, she traces the quiet transformation that happens when a woman chooses herself—without apology. This is not a story of overnight change or perfectly healed wounds. It is a story of unlearning endurance, redefining strength, and coming home to a self that was always there.\nThis book explores:\nThe cost of performing for love\nBoundaries as self-respect, not punishment\nSoftness as strength\nMotherhood that challenges who you thought you had to be\nThe moment survival stops working—and honesty begins\nTurning forty wasn’t the end of her story.\nIt was the moment she stopped negotiating her place in it.\nWritten for women who are done proving, done shrinking, and ready to live with intention, This Is Forty is both a memoir and a mirror—an invitation to reflect, release, and begin again.\nBecause it’s not too late.\nAnd you were never behind.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0GML7Q7H6\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0GML7Q7H6.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Maestas, Korina\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43332244668477,"sku":"BVV.B0GML7Q7H6.VG","price":14.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/this-is-forty-living-authentically","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
