4: The Biggest Lie You've Been Told About Aging as a Woman

When someone asks you how old you are, what happens? Do you cringe? Lie? Shamefully (or defiantly) tell the truth? 

This cringing feeling about aging is exactly what is keeping you stuck - feeling like your body is going downhill fast, and time is running out.

You’re feeling this way because society has quietly told you that you have to fight aging at all costs. 

So, you’re starting to feel invisible because you’re “less attractive”, you're busier than ever trying to prove that you can still cut it, and wishing away your peri-menopause symptoms. 

This is happening because of “gendered aging”. And if you’ve bought into this concept, you’re probably trying your best to cover up the grey hair, push through the symptoms while pretending everything is fine, and wear “age-appropriate” clothing that still makes you look youthful.

If you think you might be caught in the gendered aging trap, listen to today’s conversation. You’ll walk away knowing how to recognize when you’re being subjected to the gendered aging trap, drop the shame, and reclaim the power that this lie has been stealing from you.
