Nadia Giordana wasn’t willing to give up when at age 59; she was suddenly faced with early retirement due to a corporate layoff. It was then she tackled two major issues in her life.

Her latest book, “Reinventing New Chapters in Your Life at Any Age,” came about because of her efforts to inspire other women living the second acts of their lives to rediscover their sidelined dreams and do some of the things they always dreamed of doing.
