Serious question. Is age a number or a mindset?  In 2016, Gina Pell, a creative director and tech entrepreneur, rejected the strictures of our dated age-label-boxes,  coining the term Perennials to describe ever-blooming people of ALL ages who continue to push up against their growing edge, always relevant, and not defined by their generation.  Gina is the Content Chief of The What, a social community, and addictive email newsletter, which surfaces five eclectic, curious things you need to know every week—from wellness to books to beauty, style, travel, and tech.  We talk about why age is irrelevant, how to stay ever-curious, and why nurturing community is an antidote to the isolation of this never-ending pandemic. Plus, she shares her newest, keep-calm find.

If your life were a movie, what ending would you write? Emerging screenwriter Barbara Ward Thall hit her late-fifties and decided she wanted a wildly different ending for her third act, after decades in senior ad and marketing roles at buzzy companies like Amazon's Audible. Now at 60, she writes highly personal, female-led stories that won her a coveted spot in a writer's program for women over 40, backed by heavy-hitters like Oprah. Barbara shares ideas for applying screenwriting's “three-act formula” to create your own cinematic third-act.

Why didn’t anyone tell us that parenting and midlife were going to be hard? Okay, maybe they told us. But we weren’t listening, because we were young and fun, and obviously never going to be 50. Hooray for hilarious truth-tellers like writer Melissa Fenton who mines both the magic and mundane of parenting and midlife for outlets like Grown & Flown, Scary Mommy, and The AARP’s The Girlfriend. In today’s show, we talk surviving teens and midlife and learn how Melissa built a successful freelance writing career.
