Feisty Side of Fifty/ Baby Boomer Women
I always enjoy my conversations with Mary Eileen Williams on “Feisty Side of Fifty Radio.” She is an enthusiastic interviewer and friend of women over 50.
I am sharing her post on our most recent program because she again shows what a feisty supporter she is on my behalf and the subject of my next book about love, sex and intimacy in second adulthood…
“Women Over 50: Make Your Story Heard!”
By Mary Eileen Williams
As a woman over 50 are you finding that:
• Your relationships are shifting because you’re experiencing major physical, psychological, and emotional change?
• You’re letting go of many of your peripheral, “have-to” relationships while drawing others closer?
• You’re expressing and receiving love in more authentic ways?
If so, Suzanne Braun Levine wants to hear from you!
Suzanne made her first imprint on the culture by accepting the position as founding editor of Ms. magazine. She worked at that groundbreaking periodical for seventeen years and became an intergral and active participant in the Women’s Movement. To our great fortune, this hard-fought battle for parity opened options and opportunities that changed our lives and those of our daughters and granddaughters forever.
The past several years Suzanne has continued her life’s work to better the world of women and families by sharing her insights into how we’re aging as women today. Through her interviews and research, Suzanne has brought to light many of the life lessons we learn as we grow older. She shares these in her books, Inventing the Rest of Our Lives: Women in Second Adulthood and Fifty is the New Fifty: Ten Life Lessons for Women in Second Adulthood.
Now Suzanne is working on her latest book and this one promises to bring fresh awareness and perspective to love, sex, and intimacy in second adulthood. Suzanne recently appeared on Feisty Side of Fifty Radio to tell us all about it. She’s uncovered some fascinating aspects of how our relationships deepen and change over the years. You’ll want to learn about this valuable and uplifting information so give yourself a 15-minute break and take a listen.
Continuing her research, Suzanne is offering YOU a chance to get YOUR story told. Have you noticed your own relationships altering with age? These can be relationships of all kinds: romantic, familial, friendships, and the like. If so, send Suzanne a message at www.suzannebraunlevine.com However she’s under deadline so contact her soon—you just might see your story in print!
As Suzanne mentioned in our interview, there’s plenty of good news out there in the love and relationship department. One of the gifts of aging is that we’re becoming more authentic in our interactions and beginning to create a balance between give and take. For some of us that particular balance has taken a lifetime to achieve.
So won’t you share your good news?
Email Suzanne and let her know how your relationships are growing and transforming as you become more in-tuned with your best and most authentic self. After all, the full range of relationships, including love, sex, and intimacy, represent even more evidence that the feisty side of fifty is a great place to be–so let Suzanne know what this means for YOU!”
