    Midlifers Saying the Quiet Part Out Loud with Dina Alvarez and Dina Aronson of Midlife Private Parts

    Midlifers are saying the quiet parts out loud—and we have stories that will make you laugh, cry, and feel like you've found your tribe. This week, writers, reinventors, and editors Dina Alvarez and Dina Aronson join host Katie Fogarty to explore their new essay collection "Midlife Private Parts"—a series of revealing essays that will change the way you think about age. Dina and Dina spent two years gathering 27 contributors (including many ACA podcast favorites like Dr. Mary Claire Haver, Sarah Milken, and Laura Belgray) to capture snapshots of midlife in all its magnificent, messy, comical glory. From hormone chaos to happiness breakthroughs, to sex and dating, recalibrating midlife friendships and marriages, to dabbling in cosmetic procedures, to the mixed bag of empty nesting, this collection serves up the midlife realness we all crave. We also explore what it took to bring this project to life, and why midlife is exactly the right time to become wildly visible, creative, and collaborative.

    The Science of Skin Aging with OneSkin Co-Founder Alessandra Zonari, PhD

    Let's be honest—walking down the skincare aisle in midlife is overwhelming. So many products, so much BS. If you're tired of "anti-aging" products that promise miracles, this show will help you cut through marketing hype, make you a shrewder shopper, and give your skincare smarts a science-backed glow up. Today's show is a crash course in the science of skin aging with Dr. Alessandra Zonari, who holds a PhD in skin regeneration and tissue engineering and is the co-founder of cult-favorite OneSkin, a line of skin, suncare and scalp products. Alessandra and her team spent five years screening 900+ peptides to discover the first molecule that targets "zombie cells"—damaged cells that accelerate skin aging after 30. We cover what makes skin age, why some people’s skin ages faster than others, why lifestyle beats genetics in aging—and which choices matter most. Plus, a primer on spotting science-backed products versus lotions and potions hyped only by clever marketing. Understanding the real science behind skin aging isn't about skin-deep vanity—it's about making informed choices that protect your health and confidence as you age. Learn to love (and protect) the skin you're in, beauties! SPECIAL OFFER: Get 15% off your first order with code ACA at www.oneskin.co.
