But then Diane Keaton came along and flipped the script.In this episode, I talk about:The fear of losing relevance as we ageHow movies like This Is 40 (and Something’s Gotta Give) shaped our expectations of midlifeWhat Diane Keaton taught me about presence, weirdness, slowing down, and pleasureWhy I’m rewriting the rules of aging — starting with a fabulous hatAnd of course, I’ll share the seven lessons I’m bringing into my forties, inspired by Diane herself.So if you’re hovering around forty — or already in it — and you’re wondering what comes next, this one’s for you.🎂 Join the 40 Club: DM me @stacehutson and tell me how you’re celebrating your next phase.
