Welcome! We’re so glad you’re here, we hope you feel supported on your adventure, and perhaps we will even hear your story. As someone who has always created her own (meandering) path and bucked at outdated traditions, there were many times I wish I had the stories, frankness, humor, wisdom, and encouragement of women of all ages and backgrounds, so here we are. The Age Box is home to the podcast, book, women’s newsletter, and resources encouraging new adventures, pivots, and community building for women of all ages (but especially the fabulous 40+ crew!). Led by Gen X and Millennial women, The Age Box is a space where women can share stories, exchange tips and advice, embark on new adventures, fight the patriarchy, and support one another through life’s many transitions.
The Podcast: Every Thursday, we will share a new episode that includes both women expert in various fields, as well as a share prompt stories by listeners. Check out out latest prompt questions
The Book: Carrie’s new book is coming soon, so watch this space.
The Newsletter + Shop: Sign up for our monthly roundup substack newsletter or shop our dedicated page to books and items we mention on the pod or beyond.
Our Mission: At The Age Box, we believe that women hold incredible power—socially, economically, intellectually, and creatively. We are stronger when we share our experiences and knowledge, especially across generations, cultures, and backgrounds. We are committed to being PROGRESSIVE, PRO-EQUALITY and PRO-AGE, championing the importance of every stage of a woman’s life.
Join the Movement: We believe in the POWER OF THE PIVOT. It’s never too late to create the life you want. Move beyond the age box and join us as we explore, learn, and grow together. Let’s break down barriers, embrace change, and build a community where women of all ages thrive.
