Gateway Elderwomen

“Not only is Jody Day a truly gifted writer, but she dares to talk about the subjects that dog us, the ones that we tend to want to keep quiet. A wise elder who holds a light for women like me who are coming to terms to what elderhood is about if there are no children or grandchildren in the picture. What do we do with that mother energy -- this is what the conversation is about. ”

“Jody writes with boldness, courage, and clarity, giving voice to the narratives that sit outside of the mainstream - narratives of women without children, narratives of women on the edge of elderhood, narratives of women refusing to be invisible in a culture that tries to diminish us. I'm deeply grateful she is out there lighting the way for those of us following a few steps behind.”

“Jody Day is the best. A longtime advocate for childless women, she is expanding her work to look at the challenges of aging without children. Read her. You'll be glad you did. ”
