Aging as a Spiritual Experience (Plus, the Power of Radical Self-Love) with Amanda Hanson aka The Midlife Muse Dec 12, 2022

Show notes

Expiration dates are for milk, not for people. But in a youth-obsessed and beauty-focused culture, women are bombarded with messages that their value and worth are fleeting. Psychologist Dr. Amanda Hanson, aka The Midlife Muse, invites us to deeply question negative cultural and internal messages and offers us tools to build self-love, spark optimism and embrace aging as a spiritual experience. We get into the divine feminine, the transformative power of incremental change, and why you can't buy radiance at the beauty counter—time to invest in a "soul care" routine.

If you woke up this morning, there is more for you to receive, give, and become.

Hazel Founder Aubrey Hubbell Brings No-Leak, Chic Disposable Underwear to the Midlife Incontinence Market Nov 21, 2022

Show notes

Here’s an unwelcome midlife surprise: one in two women over 50 experience stress incontinence, aka urine leakage. That’s right – if you are afraid to drink water and then laugh, run, sneeze, work out, or, God forbid, sit in the middle row of an airplane, you are not alone. Please meet Aubrey Hubbell, co-founder of luxe, femme care brand Hazel, which is disrupting the billion-dollar urinary incontinence market. We may be decades into adulting, but we are decidedly not into—and not settling—for “adult diapers.” Goodbye Depends, hello Hazel—and hello to a frank, honest conversation on the taboo topic of midlife urinary incontinence.
