There comes a point where many women stop fearing wrinkles and start fearing what they've been taught wrinkles mean.In this week's Mid Week Tease, Adelle unpacks the stories women inherit about aging, from the belief that our worth has an expiry date to the pressure of ticking invisible life milestones before it's "too late."
Drawing on psychology, sociology and personal reflection, this episode explores why so many women experience birthdays with anxiety instead of celebration, and what becomes possible when we begin questioning the narratives we've been handed.
In this episode:
Why women are taught to tie their worth to youthThe psychology behind self-objectificationThe myth that your best years are behind youWhy there is no deadline for becoming who you areThe unexpected freedom many women discover as they grow olderHow fear of aging may actually be fear of losing social approvalWhy protecting your peace often comes with ageIf you've ever felt like you're running out of time or wondered whether life has already peaked, this conversation is for you.
