The Book
Timeless Women Speak: Feeling Youthful at Any Age has been called a portable support group, a lifeline for women, an intimate journal.
Dr. Nancy O'Reilly, Psy.D.
Nancy D. O'Reilly, PsyD, a clinical psychologist and founder of the WomenSpeak Project, has worked with women in a strategic, problem-solving fashion for more than 25 years. She reaches out to her audience with humor and uses real-life stories and approaches to help women find the information they need to fulfill their potential.
She is passionate about the WomenSpeak Project, which she founded in order to educate and offer women a place to share the experience of growing older in a positive and rewarding atmosphere. During more than 10 years of research she has asked more than 1,200 women of all ages the hard questions about growing older in a youth-driven society. Women find comfort knowing that they are not the only ones who fear aging and who wonder if their value as a person will be compromised. “We women want more of everything wonderful in our next third of life.”
Dr. Nancy hosts a weekly Internet radio show, Timeless Women Speak, on WebTalk Radio. She was nominated for Missouri’s First Lady Award in 2008 and recognized as one of Springfield, Missouri’s most influential women of 2007.

She gives radio and TV interviews, has published professional articles, and has presented her research at a national conference of the American Psychological Association. Her outreach to her readers continues to grow with a newly designed web site WomenSpeak.com, ongoing focus groups and articles and speeches. The website offers a wealth of resources about Health and Wellness, Relationships, Finances and Feeling Youthful at Any Age.
