The Beauty (and B.S.) of Aging My Mom Always Says

- Parenting
As two women of certain ages (70 and 42, to be exact) with a shared propensity for both fancy skincare products and the desire to not let the wrinkles and gray hair get us down, we're getting honest about the good (spoiler alert: there's a lot!), bad, and inherently ugly parts of getting older in a world that seems to think women should stop aging at around 35. Where is the line between fighting against the realities of time and embracing their inevitable changes? Can we feel both gratitude for the wisdom that comes with age and resentment for the physical evolution that comes along with it? And just how often should I be getting Botox? (Kidding, but not really.) Aging gracefully is everyone's goal, right? But how to do it is pretty damn complicated. Join us as we talk about what works for us — and what definitely doesn't — and how getting older can truly be a gift.
