The desire for living comes from your pussy, from your soul.  It does not come from outside validation and beauty & sexual standards set by culture and society.    So, how can we set out to rediscover our sexuality and purpose in Midlife when the narrative we are sold is that our libidos are low and our beauty is dependent on chemical intervention? In today’s episode, I invite Vicki Larson, longtime award winning journalist, columnist, and author, to have a conversation about aging, chasing the appearance of youth, and normalizing what it means to have sex well beyond Midlife.  We’re diving into: What led her on the journey to writing her book, “Not Too Old for That: How Women are Changing the Story of Aging" Aging, the messaging we receive around it & viewing aging as an indicator of success Beauty standards & the pressures to get cosmetic surgery Vicki’s rediscovery of her desire & passion (and younger men!) in Midlife Partnerships and exploring consensual non-monogamy And so much more juiciness!   Connect with Vicki: Twitter: https://twitter.com/OMGchronicles Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/vlarson & https://www.facebook.com/VickiLarsonJournalist LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vickilarson Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/omgchronicles/?hl=en Website: https://omgchronicles.medium.com/ & http://omgchronicles.vickilarson.com/ Buy a copy of her book here: https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781538155615/Not-Too-Old-for-That-How-Women-Are-Changing-the-Story-of-Aging & https://www.amazon.com/Not-Too-Old-That-Changing/dp/1538155613   Connect with me: Join my Facebook community “Revolutionizing Midlife for Women 40+” to celebrate everything Midlife! https://www.facebook.com/groups/2660456010896319/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/midlife.muse/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/midlife.muse Website: https://amandahanson.com/
