Internalized ageism

In case you haven’t noticed :), ageism is rife in our culture and aging women are especially apt to be treated as irrelevant and/or invisible. Please bring your examples, ideas and experiences to the conversation,  Invite a friend, share this email with anyone who might want to jump in and be heard(!). Onward, right?

Facilitator Ann Lovejoy will be using prompts and quotes from the book “This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism”  by Ashton Applewhite (published 2016), a rich, juicy read. If you don’t have time to find a copy, this article captures a lot of the main themes: https://www.deseret.com/2022/5/8/23043107/a-word-to-the-wise-age-aging-wisdom-embrace-older-age-ageism-therapy
