On this episode, we talk to Kristin van Ogtrop, former editor in chief of Real Simple magazine and author of the new book, Did I Say That Out Loud? Midlife Indignities and How to Survive Them.
Featuring stories from her own life, as well as anecdotes from her unwitting friends and family, Kristin encourages you to laugh at the small irritations of midlife: neglectful children, stealth insomnia, forks that try to kill you and abdominal muscles that can't get the job done. It is an irreverent and accurate look at midlife.

This episode we talk to celebrity stylist Stacy London. Stacy is one of America’s foremost style experts. She is best known as the co-host of TLC’s iconic show, “What Not to Wear.” Following that success, she hosted and executive produced 3 seasons of “Love Lust or Run.” Stacy has written two books, Dress Your Best, which was published to stellar reviews, and The Truth About Style, a New York Times bestseller.
Stacy is now CEO of State of Menopause. She is doing what she has done her entire career as a stylist: help people from suffering silently, raise their confidence and self-esteem by alleviating external symptoms, and removing the shame that surrounds them. And that’s why, when she got the chance, she went from being one of a hundred peri-menopausal beta-testers for these products to running the company.
