I think it’s Doing Life With Your Adult Children
It has a chapter titled failure to launch, and from the preview I saw is super preachy
You people. You people here? Oh, I've missed this. You are enough.
Although many many snarkers have told me how powerfully I've changed their lives, even through my own pain and suffering, I had to delete my old account for various reasons. So this account? I've made this account so I can do more than lurk the funniest thread on my favourite r.
And I'm here to ask, why has nobody told me the important news that BOTH GFG AND DOOCE have essays in this book? Did I miss people talking about it?

Also, gfg was meant to be doing an event in conversation with the author on 14 October, but did it happen? Social media doesn't seem to think so. Was it talked about here?

And I'm here to tell you that this book? Oh, this book. While radically healing from my account deletion I'm thinking of prostrating myself at its feet, allowing the budget to change and spend the $AUD9 for an e-copy, sitting meditation on it in the gloaming, letting its shardly prose shatter on my nubbly cortex, then sharing over a fire with You People after which we'll write our snark on pieces of paper that we throw into the fire. Then we'll do it all again when the book of essays is birthed!
(all snark aside, I quite like the author's illustrations and some of the essays that aren't from bloggers look pretty good).
Single mom here. Got this book for my 9 year old son and I read it then he did on his own. I emphasize it is all normal, and not to shame.

I frequent NoMeatAthlete.com the most probably. Matt has great running tips, recipes, etc. This simple recipe makes almonds x1000 times better. I tend to get tired of things pretty quickly too though, so I change up snacks often. And lazily, I also stack up on Clif bars whenever they go on sale and always have one in a desk drawer, glove box, back pocket.
I suck at cooking, so another favorite site is The Vegan Stoner. I'm not a stoner myself, but these recipes are generally very easy, although not always the healthiest. I have their cookbook and it is awesome.
And because I now feel a little guilty about suggesting couch food, two of the best resources that really inspired me were Rich Roll's podcast and book, and Brendan Brazier's Thrive Forward video series. The book really kickstarted everything for me, the podcast kept me interested, and the video series kept me informed while I trained. My only suggestion if you've never listened to Rich's podcast before is to check the show notes and check out episodes that you'll find interesting. As of late he's also gotten into a lot of spiritual and entrepreneurial guests, and those don't keep my interest as much as the veg athletes and physicians.
Best of luck! I went from couch slob to my April marathon in 10 months and am about to start training for a 50mi trail race. It's crazy what we're capable of with plants!
This book was my fast education on everything peri and really helped me prepare for talking with my doctor: https://www.amazon.com/Change-Before-Everything-Healthy-Menopause/dp/0553380311
Very clear and factual, talks about all sides of treatment too.

I quite liked finding ultra ( http://www.amazon.co.uk/Finding-Ultra-Rejecting-Becoming-Discovering/dp/0307952207), it ends up being a bit preachy with the vegan diet but that is easy to ignore if you just concentrate on the running
Ultra running:
26 here just went through this. Do a drastic physical change like a crazy new hair cut or color or new diet/workout routine. Also remember so so many successful people did it later in life! You've got this! Here's a book I highly recommend reading that'll help.
