In this episode of The Life of Bryony, comedian and author Cally Beaton breaks down the taboos and stereotypes around midlife, menopause, and the supposed “invisibility” of women as they age. Drawing from her book, Namaste Motherf**kers, Cally shares personal stories and scientific insights, challenging what society – and the animal kingdom – really tell us about women and aging, and why life after 40 is just the beginning.
