00:00:00.000what's up guys good morning everybody i'm flying today so i'm doing my episode a little bit early
00:00:08.400and i just thought i would maybe hang out go over the news for the day and just the things
00:00:13.520that are trending on the timeline so we're starting with a woman who is talking about
00:00:18.560getting divorced at 60. so we're going to react to this article here
00:00:30.000a new life after 60. I was devastated by a divorce at 70, but at 102, I know the secrets
00:00:48.440of a well-lived life. So there's this idea that women of the past were different.
00:00:54.960and i do push back on this idea i would say that women of the past had less opportunity
00:01:02.740and less choice but had they been given the same thing i think they would have made the same
00:01:09.060choices i don't know why guys they always want like they think that if they go to a different
00:01:14.040country or if they go to a different point in history women still won't be women but yeah i
00:01:22.200just died. That's not what I see. Cause I've interviewed older women and their answers are
00:01:25.800kind of similar. All right. A new start after 60. I was devastated by a divorce at 70, but at 102,

00:01:49.580papers. He had been carrying them in a briefcase for six months and said he would appreciate a
00:01:54.020prompt signature. McGarry and Bill had not only been married for decades, but were also close
00:02:00.440colleagues. They were both doctors who had trained as practitioners and were among the
00:02:04.760co-founders of the American Holistic Medicine Association in 1978. For the duration of their
00:02:10.720marriage, they had shared a clinic in Phoenix, Arizona, as well as having six children together.
00:02:15.160So when the marriage ended, Bill had started a relationship with another colleague. McGarry not only lost her life partner, but also her business partner, too. It blindsided me and I was broken, she says.
00:02:26.780So a lot of times what happens is this is like the feminist worst nightmare to spend your youth on a guy and to have a bunch of kids.
00:02:39.200And now you're kind of screwed when you're old.
00:02:42.800That's that's like feminist worst nightmare.
