“As a friend, mentor, and author, I know Sumedha to be a woman of great courage, intention, spirituality and clarity about her values and herself. She brings this clarity to others along her path, as she negotiates a world of health and equity, aging and spirituality. As revealed in this enthralling memoir, she has experienced her life in multiple phases of gathering wisdom, often inspired by strong, independent women like herself. This memoir is an inspiration and a guide to her family, her friends, and the broader world of women. Her legacy will echo for generations to come.”

“Dr. Sumedha Khanna has devoted her life to promoting healthy, active lives for women-around the world. She brought her medical and administrative expertise to countries around the world where women’s health needs were not a priority. She made sure that those old patterns changed, always leaving countries where she served for the World Health Organization richer in resources for women and children. After retirement, she expanded her focus to bringing Third Journey older women together to share and enrich their lives. Sumedha’s inspiring memoir is a jewel well-worth reading.”
