from Wild, Wise & Curious... · host Michelle Haggerty-Wood & Lou Baker
This episode starts with a quote by the powerhouse that is Jane Fonda; 'We're still living the old paradigm of age as an arch, that's the old metaphor, you're born, you peek at midlife and decline into decrepitude, but a more appropriate metaphor for ageing is a staircase, the upward ascension of the human spirit bringing us into wisdom, wholeness and authenticity.' We'll certainly be taking the stairs from here! We also delve into... What clothing is considered too young for 'our' age? More perimenopausal and menopausal women represented in films and on TV, please! Flexing our compassion muscles Healing circles, anyone? And much more. Oh... and twenty other ways to say 'Absolutely'. Jane Fonda was Barbarella in the 1968 controversial film of the same name. At the 2015 Sundance Film Festival, she said of the film that she; "took the easy road for a while" with roles she now considers to be less than flattering. "I would say that ended with Barbarella," . Jane Fonda was also in Grace & Frankie, the series Michelle couldn't remember!
