Hello there. I'm Barbara, and I'm pretty darn passionate about amplifying the voices of women, particularly those over 40, who experience the ism rarely addressed in workspaces, careers, and inside our businesses. AGEism has become a crisis in America for women [and humans alike]. There's power in diversity - age diversity and in 2018, the U.S. lost $850 billion due to ageism.Let's reframe age and aging together. 📝Book to have me speak at your next gathering, conference, or internal event, or media interview and I'll share ways to excite everyone about re-scripting the age dialog.
