Thanksgiving is my absolute favorite holiday of the year – no gifts to worry about, the chance to collect people you love from all corners of your life, and the best food ever!
This year, while the leftovers are still tasty, there is yet another event I am looking forward to: I have been invited by Jane Fonda to join a panel she is leading at the TEDxWomen at a one-day bicoastal event on December 1 at the Paley Media Center in New York, + Los Angeles.
I will be joining Jane, Mary Catherine Bateson and my friend Laura Carstensen to explore the subject of “Re-Birth.” I will focus on the importance of what I have called ‘The Fertile Void’ – “The fruits of ‘second adulthood’” – which I described in my book Inventing the Rest of Our Lives: Women in Second Adulthood.
The event is a continuation of an ongoing TEDxWomen conversation about “how women and girls are re-shaping the future.”
I hope you will be able to join us at an event in your community.
