Welcome to Anxiously, a new podcast from Tablet Studios. 

Each week hosts Lisa Sandell and Aimee Friedman grapple with one of their anxieties—from the trivial to the existential—in a humorous and heartfelt way. From germs to mortality, they’re tackling it all. They're helped along the way by smart and entertaining guests who offer perspective and advice. 

This week, Lisa and Aimee are anxious about getting older, and wondering if they’re getting less relevant. They’re joined by fashion commentator and bon vivant Simon Doonan, who explains that confidence is the secret ingredient to style, praises the virtues of “embracing hagdom,” and suggests that Lisa and Aimee adopt a signature sartorial flourish, like a motorcycle jacket.
