What if You Stopped Trying to Look Younger? With Skylar Liberty Rose
Apr 29, 2026
Shedding the Rules You Never Agreed To
Beauty culture is loud. And most of us have been listening to it for so long we've forgotten it was never actually our voice.
In this episode I'm joined by writer, pro-aging advocate, and midlife coach Skylar Liberty Rose for a conversation that kept surprising me. We talk about beauty standards, the invisible pressure women carry around their appearance, and what it feels like to start shedding expectations you never consciously agreed to.

In This Conversation
- Why Skylar calls midlife a reckoning — and an invitation
- The question she asks herself every time a critical thought about her body shows up
- The surprisingly funny practice she uses to interrupt negative self-talk (I admitted to something similar — you'll have to listen)
- Her unconventional path to meditation and how it became central to her work with women
- The midlife transitions our culture never bothers to mark — and why they deserve a ritual
- What aging has given her that her younger self simply couldn't have received
