Y'all. I'm so excited that I got to chat with Diane Gilman in this episode of She's Not Done Yet: Conversations with Women over 50!

We talk about her life experience, including her experience with breast cancer in her 70's.

When you listen to our conversation, you will understand why she titled her memoir “Too Young to be Old!”

In our wide-ranging conversation, we talk about being a first generation American, the importance of our families of choice, what it's like to be a silver-haired glamour girl, and pivoting from a brilliantly successful career as QVC's Jean Queen to a new career as a podcaster.

Diane shares how her old ways of thinking fell away with her cancer diagnosis and she became something shiny and new.

There's a truism that goes something like this: We only get more like our true selves as we get older. Diane and I are here to tell you that's true - and it's a powerful thing!

She left us with 3 life lessons:

**Avoid living in an age ghetto. Seek out women of all ages and you'll stay relevant and contemporary.
**Be always alert to recognize why you're here on earth and do it.
**There's no calendar for life - it's what we make it. Our age doesn't matter. As we have the courage to tear down our barriers and abandon our limiting beliefs, anything is possible. We're never through learning.
