Sub text I’m so thrilled and deeply grateful to have the support of women who have inspired me, challenged my thinking, and helped shape both my life and my work as a coach. Their encouragement and endorsement mean a great deal to me, and I’m delighted to share their words with you.
Dr Julie Smith, Author, United Kingdom
Ann Hill has written a compassionate, practical, and deeply validating guide for women navigating the confusing terrain of midlife. From Foggy to Clear, Courageous, and Self-Led does not treat midlife as a crisis to be feared, but as a powerful transition to be understood, respected, and led with intention. The book combines emotional honesty, coaching wisdom, and grounded tools that help women recognise what is happening in their bodies, minds, relationships, and work lives. Its RESET, REWIRE, and RISE structure gives readers a clear route from overwhelm and brain fog toward energy, confidence, boundaries, and self-trust. This is a warm, wise, and useful book for women ready to stop drifting and start leading their lives again.

Kate Muir, Author, United Kingdom
A timely and empowering book for women who have been told to push through, stay quiet, or accept midlife as decline. Ann Hill brings clarity, courage, and honesty to a life stage that deserves far more attention. This book helps women feel seen, informed, and ready to reclaim themselves.

Brené Brown, Author, United States
Ann Hill writes with the rare combination of tenderness and courage. This book speaks to the woman who has spent years performing strength while quietly losing energy, direction, and connection to herself. What makes From Foggy to Clear, Courageous, and Self-Led so powerful is that it does not shame the reader into change. It invites her into truth. Through reflection, practical coaching tools, and a clear nine-step pathway, Hill helps women name what is no longer working, challenge old patterns, and rise into a more honest version of leadership. It is a brave, generous, and deeply human guide for women who are ready to come back to themselves.

Glennon Doyle, Author, United States
This book is for every woman who has looked around at her life and thought, “Why does everything look fine, when I feel so far from myself?” Ann Hill gives language to that ache and then offers a way forward. Honest, practical, and full of heart, this is a guide for women ready to stop abandoning themselves.

Elizabeth Gilbert, Author, United States
There is a beautiful steadiness in Ann Hill’s work. She understands that transformation does not always arrive dramatically. Sometimes it begins as tiredness, brain fog, resentment, restlessness, or the quiet realisation that the life we built no longer feels like home. From Foggy to Clear, Courageous, and Self-Led honours that moment with compassion and practical wisdom. Hill guides women through the inner and outer work of midlife: understanding hormonal change, reclaiming energy, rewriting inherited stories, setting boundaries, and choosing a more truthful future. This is not a book about fixing women. It is a book about helping them remember their power.
