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

In this episode, we meet Linda Keene, a retired businesswoman turned nonprofit executive who ultimately has found meaning in retirement through her art. We also talk to researchers - sociologists Kendra Jason and Toni Calasanti - who make the connection between women’s experiences in the workplace, both good and bad, and how this impacts later financial stability and life satisfaction. Our final guest in this episode, Jill Steinberg, sums it up with her research findings regarding how to maximize your chances for a successful retirement experience.
