What can ageing teach us? For broadcast and writer Jacinta Parsons, the answer is – perhaps everything.
Inspired by many conversations with women across the country, A Wisdom of Age captures the brewing tone of revolution that sits in the hearts of women who are ready to tell a new kind of story about the experience of growing older. Set against the backdrop of an intimate two-course dinner at Montalto, Parsons reflects on her own experience of ageing, alongside the powerful stories of the remarkable women she’s encountered – each offering unique tales of resilience, wisdom and grace – and the lessons they’ve imparted.
She joins host Hilary Harper for an honest, thought-provoking and energising conversation about ageing with love and the spirit of rebellion.
This event was recorded on Friday June 6th 2025. It was presented in partnership with Montalto.
The official bookseller was Farrells.
Featured music is 'Lucy’s Trail (Don’t Give Up)' by Sarah the Illstrumentalist.
