Caroline Paul is a a role model as a female adventurer. She’s mountain biked in the Andes, climbed Denali and sought adventure wherever possible. As she ages, she continues to push her bounds. But she asks: Why aren’t women, like men, encouraged to keep adventuring into old age? And what, exactly constitutes “old age”?
As an aging boomer myself, Caroline’s story resonates strongly. Do we discourage women (at any age) from being more adventurous? What are the societal standards we consciously and unconsciously tell our children? And what are the stories we convey about women as they approach their sixties and beyond? Is it a story of frality and decline, or one of continuous learning and adventure?
Caroline’s perspective will get you thinking. Thinking about what it is you truly want to do, especially in the outdoors. Because it’s in the outdoors that we find awe, adventure and often meaning. Come join the conversation.
It's an Award Winning, Amazon best selling book!
