She spent seventeen years building a life for everyone else. Now the world has moved on - and so must she.
When Allison drops her daughter off at college on a warm August morning, she returns to a house that is suddenly, achingly quiet. Two beagles. A husband. And the dawning realization that the marketing career she left behind seventeen years ago no longer exists in the form she remembers.
The tools have new names. The rules have changed. And somewhere between raising two children and running a household with the quiet precision of a seasoned executive, the industry she loved was rebuilt - largely without her.
Allison's Wonderland follows one woman's funny, honest, and deeply human journey back into the workforce at forty-five, in an era when artificial intelligence is rewriting the rules of creative work faster than anyone can keep up. From a humbling coffee with her old boss, to building real campaigns in her friend's catering kitchen, to a nine-minute job interview conducted entirely by an algorithm that cannot read a room - Allison discovers that the skills the machines cannot replicate are the very ones she has spent seventeen years quietly perfecting.
This is a story about reinvention. About marriage under pressure. About what it means to be the steady one when the floor gives way. About a daughter who needs her mother at exactly the wrong moment. And about learning - slowly, stubbornly, hopefully - that a lived life is not a career gap. It is a competitive advantage.
Warm, wry, and quietly radical, Allison's Wonderland is the first book in AI Women: LLMs (Love, Loss and Midlife Crises) - a series about women whose lives are touched, tested, and ultimately transformed by the age of artificial intelligence.
For every woman who has ever stood in the middle of her life and wondered if there is still room to begin again.
The machines can start the sentence. These women learn how to finish it. Better.
