Guides: Silvia Talavera and Trebbe Johnson
As we women in all stages of growing into our greater years, there is a growing passion and a commitment to tell our stories. We have children, or we are childless, we are single or we are partnered, working or retired, healthy or feeling the struggles of the body. Whatever stage of eldering we find ourselves navigating, it is important that we find our way, with as much humor, grace and dignity as possible.
As women ripen into the various stages of elderhood, it may be time to re-map the landscape to make room for the emerging new perspectives of what it means to be an elder in today’s world. Through honoring the years of a life lived, creating new meaning and imparting our gifts in service, we move towards transformation and into a renewed vitality, creativity, and vision.
