The One Where I Talk To Heidi Clements (Full Episode drops 16/4/24)

My guest on this week's Tuesday episode of Spinsterhood Reimagined is the force that is Heidi Clements. This woman is fire, and I loved her! Full episode available on 16/4/24.
Heidi is a 63 year old single, childfree woman living in the US. She loves fashion and was a scripted writer who decided to use storytelling on social media as a way to get her message out about women over 50. She is passionate about changing the way the world looks at older women, and wants to change the narrative that currently makes them feel invisible once they hit menopause.
Topics that Heidi & I cover are:
- how Heidi believes that women are only valued for their sexuality and their appearance;
- how once menopause hits, women are deemed to be ‘unfuckable’;
- the stigma around not having sex;
- how having a partner has never been a priority for her, and it still isn’t;
- women ageing, and the term ‘anti-ageing’;
- how everything good in life comes when we let go of what other people think;
- why the failure isn’t not having a partner, but not loving yourself;
- the notion that ‘you don’t know real love’ until you’ve had a child;
- heartbreak, and how Heidi has experienced it several times;
- how Heidi hates going solo to weddings;
- the narrative that single women will 'die alone' and why she isn’t afraid of it;
- loneliness, and the fact that Heidi rarely experiences it;
- the unprecedented growth of her social media accounts.

Heidi is amazing.
Everyone talks about the bad plastic surgery and fillers that actors get but I will bet that most of them were "told" by their agents and managers that getting work was dependent on them looking young. Don't listen to this b.s. It's your body/face/health-treasure that.

Yes, she is fabulous, isn't she! And I love the fact that she's trying to change the narrative around ageing. It's so, so important. x

You fit more in the european way of thinking about relationships and stuff. In the US getting marryied, have children and all the pack is still a thing
