Aging While Female: Discussion with Author Ashton Applewhite
May 18, 2018 @ 4:00 am - 5:30 am PDT
What makes aging different for women – and so much harder than it has to be? How does the double impact of ageism and sexism affect women’s health, income, and well-being? And how does competing to “stay young” dig the hole even deeper?
In this rousing talk, Ashton Applewhite proposes throwing away the shovel, forging cross-generational compacts, and collaborating on new ways of thinking and behaving.
