Frustration Turns Proactive
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009While Dr. Nancy addressed women’s concerns one-on-one through her practice, she decided it was time to take the information to a broader audience. This includes:
- 10 years of groundbreaking research with over 1200 participants from age 20 to 80+
- Book, “Timeless Women Speak: Feeling Youthful at Any Age”, with inspiring stories, age group concerns, practical tips
- Weekly Radio Show, “Timeless Women Speak” at www.webtalkradio.net, interviewing amazing women
- www.womenspeak.com website with value articles and information
- E-Newsletters for the most current tips and timely stories
Knowing that other women feel the same validates our experience. Even better, we can learn from each other how to cope with the challenges and opportunities of aging.
Lack of Info on Successful Aging or “Saging”
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009As a baby boomer struggling with the reality of her own aging process, psychologist Dr. Nancy became frustrated by the lack of candid information available to help women deal with their aging issues. Available resources seem to fall into three types:
- Fountain of Youth Myths: These deny that we have to age, as long as we take a certain supplement, follow a particular diet or practice the author’s technique.
- Disease: Physicians often “medicalize” the process of aging as if it was a disease. They focus on what can go wrong.
- Crone stories: New age authors celebrate the sags and wrinkles while mourning the loss off respect for old women in our society today.
None of these materials speak honestly about women’s concerns about getting older, nor do they help women deal with these fears. Dr. Nancy decided to find out what women think are the real issues they face and how they feel.
Growing Older Is Great
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009But the truth is, in our youth-oriented society, many of us don’t feel good about it at all, and we’re scared to admit it! Sure, we try to accentuate the positive, but before we can adopt upbeat lifestyles, we have to admit and face our fears. And there’s nothing like talking with girlfriends to make a woman feel a lot better.
At last, here is a website – Womenspeak.Com – where we can let down our guard and admit, even to ourselves, that we have concerns. You can learn about the numerous ways other women have learned to be courageous about living and loving longer.
Maintaining Our Mantra
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009Successful women believe…
- We are strong, vital women who won’t be limited by our shallow society.
- We are smart and have the life experiences to prove it.
- There are no limits to what we can do — or be! We have strength in NUMBERS!
- We will ignore stereotypical thinking about age, size, and race.
- We are not fooled by the notion that women of this century “have it made”.
- We will keep fighting for personal rights.
- We are important no matter the number on our scales or the wrinkles in the mirror.
