Elder women enter menopause so as to provide the bounty of the Grandmother Effect. In the times of early humans, post menopausal were free to care for young, carry lifesaving memories, and enrich their culture. Evolution is smart like that. So why isn&#39;t modern society up on this wisdom? Can we restore or regain the valuing of our elders?

Re-tired Ep. 138: It Takes a Village

"Re-tired" is the podcast where your hosts, Sue &amp; Tina talk about what life is like when we put on new tread for new adventures. We'll explore what it means to re-tire. Like any good road trip, we'll have great company and a load of fun. "Re-tired" will host meaningful conversations with feminists about shifts in life. That could mean discussions about new job or careers, new identities, new starts, and more. In sharing, our hope, our drive, is to not only listen and hear, but to understand and empower ourselves and each other.
