Celebrating Women Over 70

Aging isn’t something to fear - it’s something to own.

Welcome to Episode 51 where I have a fabulous conversation with two unstoppable women who are proving that aging is anything but limiting!

Gail Zelitzky and Catherine Marienau are the dynamic duo behind the award-winning podcast Women Over 70: Aging Reimagined. Since launching their show in 2019, these fierce champions of pro-aging have been smashing outdated stereotypes and amplifying the voices of women aged 70 to 110+.

Their mission? To celebrate the power, wisdom, and vitality that come with aging—and to show the world that growing older is something to embrace, not fear.

In this episode, Gail and Catherine take us behind the scenes of their podcast journey, sharing how they built a thriving movement centered on reimagining what it means to age.

Their Aging Reimagined Circle has become a sanctuary for women seeking connection, inspiration, and a community that truly gets it. They remind us that aging isn't about decline - it’s about expansion, new opportunities, and stepping into our fullest selves with confidence and joy.
