"If we weren't so afraid of being old, we could have a vision in our head of what we could be when we are an older woman." — Lyn SlaterIn 2014, Lynn Slater became an accidental icon when she started a fashion blog and Instagram account in her early sixties. The media went wild and all of the stories focused on how she was an older woman who dared to talk about style and fashion and put it out there on the Internet. Lyn rode the influencing wave for nearly a decade before she decided she wanted to take more control of her narrative. As she approached her 70th birthday she began writing her new book How to Be Old.  I love this book. I love that Lyn is taking the piss out of everyone that only wanted to describe her as an old woman. And I gained so much knowledge  about how now in my forties, I can start to plan for who I want to be in my fifties and my sixties and my seventies.   This book is filled with so much wisdom for women of all ages and we talk about all of it on today's episode.Order HOW TO BE OLD here.Subscribe to Lyn's substack here.Visit ETTITUDE to get $25 off your first order of delightful bedding.Visit Quince for all the easy luxury you deserve.Visit Honeylove for all your shapewear needs. Order The Sicilian Inheritance here.
