About this listen

 Are we all aunties now? The sisters contend with what it means to age as women. Elaine thinks it’s wrong to be classed “as washed up because you are a certain age.” Why they can’t they “face the fact that yes we are aunties?” They also learn a new word to describe women of a certain age – “Thundercat”. “Can we just roll it back?” asks Rachel. The sisters also talk about how their children’s love lives and career choices differ from theirs, and making peace with that. Rachel realised “This is not about me, this is about them.” Their generation differs from their parents’ approach – “they just wanted security for us, didn't they? that security that we've now been given, that we've worked for now allows us to give our kids [freedom].
