‘Antonia Case brings the clarity of years of editing Womankind and New Philosopher magazines to her new book.'

‘Flourish is an outstanding book about the tricky business of being in the world.’
Times Literary Supplement

What is a meaningful life? What does it mean to flourish?

Antonia Case, the co-founder of New Philosopher and Womankind magazines, quits her corporate job in the city and, with her partner, travels across the world in search of meaning. In a quest to find answers, she turns off the soundtrack of the media, rids herself of technology, and with little more than books as carry-on luggage, she journeys from Buenos Aires to Paris, from Barcelona to Byron Bay, seeking guidance from ancient philosophers and modern-day psychologists on what is a good life, and what is a life worth living. Along the way she discovers why winning the lottery doesn't make you happy, why making is better than having, and how love and belonging are vital to our sense of selves.

Packed with insight into life’s big questions, Flourish will take you on a riveting journey in search of what matters most.

An award-winning writer and journalist, Antonia Case is the co-founder of New Philosopher and Womankind magazines, and the Editor-In-Chief of New Philosopher. In 2014, she was awarded the Australasian Association of Philosophy Media Professionals’ Award. Antonia holds an Honours degree in Economics from Sydney University and is a regular speaker on radio and at writers’ festivals.
