What if your career doesn’t peak at 30, 40, or even 50? What if shit really starts popping off at 60?

Writer, editor, and Oldster Magazine founder Sari Botton joins me to talk about aging, ambition, gendered ageism, and what happens when the doors stop opening and you decide to build your own damn thing.

We get into why every age is worth talking about, the surprising power of intergenerational conversations, making independent creative work financially sustainable, getting hit on by a 27-year-old at 59, and discovering that becoming older does not necessarily mean becoming invisible.

Then things get appropriately weird.

Sari tells me about being visited by dead people in her dreams—including an uncanny message delivered exactly 12 hours after a friend’s death at 3:33 AM. And in Between the Lines, a little bibliomancy involving an oak tree raises a much bigger question: Is Sari ready to take Oldster to television?

A conversation about getting older, getting bolder, and discovering that sometimes the green lights show up later than you expected.
