Unstuck the “audio” podcast
Episode 2 — The Invisible Woman
We disagree properly in this one. Lisa reckons older women are more visible now than they've ever been. Tanya, having left a senior NHS role to start something from scratch, feels distinctly less so. Somewhere between those positions we get into middle-ageism, perimenopause, Erikson's idea of generativity versus stagnation, and the shift from being valued for how you look to finding meaning in what you contribute. We also introduce our SOS model — submit, opt out, or storm in — and what it looks like to respond as a lifeguard instead.
