Next Chapters explores the remarkable landscape of growing older for women. Throughout this series, we have rich conversations about topics we rarely talk about openly, like relationships and sexuality, our bodies as we age, figuring out work and retirement, and facing discrimination in health care. In the tradition of Our Bodies Ourselves, the Next Chapters podcast brings a feminist perspective and includes an intersectional lens. We explore what we can do to maximize our quality of life. And we look at how to deal with the nitty-gritty challenges many of us face. For more information about the show, go to https://ourbodiesourselves.org/next-chapters
