Pursuing your future doesn’t end at 40, in fact, it may mark the beginning of knowing who you are, what you’re capable of and what you really want. But knowing what’s next and how to get there can be a challenge—especially when old narratives play on repeat. I’ve come to believe that the best way to understand your possibilities is in hearing from others—what they have done and how they have done it.LIBERTY ROAD is here to share stories so that you can consider your possibilities, pursue your purpose and move into your future with intention.

Dina Aronson is a writer, editor, and pro-age advocate who is passionate about shining a light on midlife women and reframing the cultural conversation around aging. A former attorney, law firm manager, and founder of a legal search consultancy, she pivoted careers at 51 after realizing how little content reflected her own evolving midlife experience. She began freelancing for startups focused on women over 40. Along the way, she founded the Patina blog, now a Substack newsletter called Patina with Dina Aronson, where she explores topics related to aging through her midlife lens.
Dina is the coeditor of Midlife Private Parts: Revealing Essays that Will Change the Way You Think About Age, a soulful, unfiltered collection of stories that speak to what it really feels like to be a midlife woman in the world today. She sits on the Governing Board of the nonprofit America Needs You and on the Influencer Council of the nonprofit Uncommon Threads. Dina lives between New York City and Miami with her husband and is the proud stepmother of two grown sons.
In today’s episode, Nada talks with Dina about her new book of essays, “Midlife Private Parts.” Dina pursued this project to honor her mother’s memory and legacy. Dina shares how she and co-author Dina Alvarez collected intimate stories about midlife with the hope that readers will feel less alone as they navigate their respective journeys. From learning to be vulnerable to giving up the need for control, the two reflect on the many aspects of life that become liberated in the middle third
