S1 Ep34: Making the Most of Mid-Life and Beyond with Iris Krasnow

How is it that some women are sexier, more productive, more fulfilled, and even more relevant after the age of 50 than then when they were younger? In this episode, Dr. Streicher is joined by Iris Krasnow, a renowned journalist, a New York Times bestselling author of 7 books, and an expert when it comes to smashing stereotypes around aging.
