S4, Ep 2: Wise Up - Power, Wisdom & the Older Woman with Barbara Scully
In this weeks episode I am joined by Irish Broadcaster, Writer and Author, Barbara Scully.
During this conversation we discuss Barbara's brilliant book, her life experiences and what inspired her to write her first book.
We chat about:
- Being a single mother in Ireland in the 80's - the judgement, discrimination and harm caused by patriarchy
- Victim blaming women & young girls
- The importance of language and words
- The pressures of culture and society to look young
- Why the beauty industry keeps us distracted, disconnected & busy fixated on how we look rather than how we feel
- The power of creativity, freedom, and wisdom as we get older
- The importance of humour, laughter, nature & our pets
Thanks for listening!
