Daytime Series Presents: Diane Frankel and the Fierce Voices Project

Join us for a discussion panel with Diane Frankel & guests on Fierce Voices — 37 women's candid reflections on aging boldly after 75. Join us for a candid and inspiring conversation drawn from Fierce Voices: Women Reflecting on the Pleasures and Indignities of Aging, a collection of reflections from 37 women across the United States on life after 75. Compiled through the Fierce Voices Project, the book captures humor, wisdom, resilience, and joy alongside the everyday challenges of growing older—offering an intimate look at friendship, family, legacy, autonomy, and the unexpected pleasures that come with age. Project lead Diane Frankel will be joined by two guest speakers to discuss the stories behind the collection, what they learned in gathering these voices, and what it means to age boldly and honestly.
