Age is just a number, not a prescription for your potential according to Pamela DeLoatch and Brooke Shields

Description

Pamela DeLoatch's mother lied about her age. Pamela didn't learn about the ten-year discrepancy until after her mother died. Why did she do it? Pamela suspects that like many women of her generation she felt that getting older was a sign of weakness, a sign that you were no longer relevant, especially as a woman. But at 61, Pamela has embraced a new philosophy. She's proud of what she has accomplished in her lifetime and still has so much to offer to her community. Pamela had a career in corporate America, and after pivoting in her fifties, she is now a successful freelance writer. She's married with four grown children. Life wasn't always easy balancing work and family as they crisscrossed the country several times moving from North Carolina to Chicago and back again twice. But with age comes the wisdom to know that if you have survived something once, you can do it again, and again, and again. In this episode, Pamela and I break down the myths and stereotypes about aging and even dig into Brooke Shields' insightful new book: Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed To Get Old.
