When Did Your Life Start Becoming Beige?

from Midlife In Full Color Hosted by Brita Doubroff

S1E3: When Did Your Life Start Becoming Beige? Most women don’t wake up one morning and decide to shrink their lives. It happens quietly - one small surrender at a time. Brita explores how women begin moving themselves to the edges of their own lives: speaking less, hiding from photographs, questioning their value and wondering whether their most interesting years are behind them. She shares the surprising story of helping design her airline’s uniform - and later sitting quietly in a lunchroom wearing it, surrounded by people who knew nothing about the rich history behind it. Had others overlooked her - or had she begun overlooking herself? This honest conversation about menopause, changing bodies and our unseen résumés invites you to notice where you’ve made yourself smaller - and take one deliberate, bold step back toward the centre of your life. Because there is still colour in you! There is still more!
