There Is An Optimism In Survival
Welcome to Wisdom at Work: Older Women, Elderwomen and Grandmothers on the Move! I'm your host, Ilana Landsberg-Lewis, and today – the inaugural episode of this podcast, I am interviewing a special guest – My Mother – feminist journalist and activist, Michele Landsberg. My mother, my mentor, the epitome of courage, the grandmother who inspired my deep desire to explore grandmotherhood and the power of older women-in-action, and the Mama who taught me that the personal is political! Grandmothers – from the living room to the courtroom – making powerful contributions in every walk of life. We know them most intimately as loving caregivers, the older women in our lives with a thousand stories about their grandchildren and pictures in their purses…. In this podcast, you’ll come to know even more about our Grandmothers – they are galvanized, determined and are guaranteed to get you thinking! What drives them? What are they up to? What is the potential of Grandmother power, and how is it changing the world?! Grandmothers are on the move…you don’t want to be left behind!
