WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK

As I approached 70 I wanted to know more about how women navigate aging on their own terms in spite of its side affects. I have studied and been an advocate for women throughout my entire adult life and it has often been difficult to ignore common gender stereotypes baked into our cultural mindset by society. The good news about getting old; knowing that we've been aging since the day we were born and continually learning new ways to think and act.  My work with all the amazing women who contributed to Don't Forget Your Sweater, Girl has had a profound influence on how I live my life today as a senior woman; with PURPOSE AND HUMOR!
