LAist is collaborating with the Wallis Annenberg GenSpace, a project of the Wallis Annenberg Legacy Foundation for an inspiring conversation about Allison Aubrey’s new book, Your Turn: How to Create a Midlife You Love. Drawing on decades of health journalism with NPR and her own curiosity tour interviewing women ages 45 to 105, Aubrey offers a practical, evidence-backed road map for rebuilding a sense of identity and finding new meaning beyond parenting and career achievement. Julia Paskin, afternoon host of All Things Considered on LAist 89.3, will talk with Aubrey about how midlife can become an opportunity for reinvention rather than a moment of crisis. Your Turn is for everyone who has spent decades showing up for everyone else and is ready to ask: what's next for me? Allison and Julia will take questions from the audience after the talk.

You can purchase the book with your ticket and receive your copy weeks ahead of the publishing date - this is an exclusive sneak peek preview!


The logo for "Wallis Annenberg GenSpace" features the word "GEN" in large, blue, stylized capital letters, followed by the full text "Wallis Annenberg GenSpace" in gray on the right.
