In our times, in our culture, it happens that mature women are pushed to the margins, they become invisible to the world, transparent. The Inner Power project is about giving meaning to their lives, showing that struggling with the passing of time, and even emphasizing the fact of having accumulated a large capital of experience, is absolutely appropriate in our times.
With emphasis on “our times”, because I will quote from the author: Joanna Kurowska, one of my ambassadors, once told a very funny anecdote: in 1906 the following news was published in the “Kurier Warszawski” newspaper: “A fifty-two-year-old old woman was trampled by a cab with horses.” I don’t feel like I’m fifty years old. I want to be the voice of my peers who, I am sure, think similarly.
This book talks about the strength of women and their wisdom in life. It’s not just about praising maturity, it’s about appreciating it. The point is to make women aware of the perspective of maturity as a potential, not as a burden. By using the knowledge of psychologists – theoreticians and practitioners – the author emphasizes that maturity has its price, but also value. Value that is not subject to seasonal discounts. It is constant and even increases over time. Because a woman’s strength increases with age. So it’s time to use it!
From the author
THE HEART HAS NO WRINKLES is my personal tribute to mature women. It is a broader definition in psychoanalytic terms of the concepts of mature femininity, motherhood, mature relationships, and describes the developmental dilemmas and doubts that appear with the merciless PESEL. In the book, I am a discreet medium that becomes an element of conveying important messages. I invited well-known and respected women to the The Inner Power project, who will talk about their struggles in life, discuss important topics, and tell what is their strength and what they draw their power from. 50 years is an important, breakthrough moment in every woman’s life.
Maturity is beautiful when you understand and accept it. My desire is to bring and consolidate in social awareness the strength and enormous inner power that mature women have within themselves. The symbol of the Inner Power project is a woman – a tree. In order for a tree to have beautiful flowers and fruits, it must have strong and healthy roots. Women over 50 are like that. Their strength and power is their inner balance and experience, which they have worked for all their lives.
The ambassadors of the project are: Jolanta Fraszyńska, Katarzyna Grochola, Anna Korcz, Joanna Kurowska, Agata Młynarska, Grażyna Szapołowska, Irena Santor, Alicja Węgorzewska, Katarzyna Żak.

I support Dorota in her difficult undertaking – restoring respect, love, faith and hope to mature women – because this is what Inner Power comes down to. I once met Dorota, a designer and stylist – and today I have Dorota’s book, a psychologist, in my hand. And I see that you can treat a Mature Woman wisely.
