Episode notes

Jane Fonda and Isabelle Ande are two of the women featured on our new podcast, Wiser than Me. Jane: "I really do believe that older women are this demographic, as it were, sort of an untapped natural resource" Isabelle: "The pressure to have figured it out in your 20s, the 20s are so fucking hard"

Julia Louis-Dreyfus joins us to dive deep into: going to therapy with her 87-year-old mom, how to love adult kids well, the metaphor that got her through breast cancer, and why we should all be excited about getting older.
