Aging Well: What a Harvard Dermatologist Wants GenX Women to Know

Are you tired of the hot girl hamster wheel? The endless products, the procedures you heard about from a friend, the serum you bought because an influencer said so? And still not loving what you see in the mirror? In this episode of Butterfly Days, Tami Jorden sits down with Dr. Mary Alice Mina, a Harvard-trained, double board-certified dermatologist and host of the globally ranked podcast The Skin Real, to get honest about what actually works for our skin in midlife and why true skin health starts from the inside out.

What Would You Regret? Using Your Mortality as a Compass in Midlife

What would you do if you knew exactly how much time you had left? What would you finally say? What would you stop tolerating and what would you stop postponing? In this solo episode of Butterfly Days, Tami draws on a decade of hospice volunteer work to ask the one question that has the power to cut through all the noise. She explores what the Stoics knew about facing mortality, why the dying teach us more about living than anything else, and how to use this season of your life as a compass toward what actually matters. This is not dark. This is clarity. 🦋 If you want to learn about hospice care for yourself or for someone you love, resources are linked in the show notes on Substack, Apple, and YouTube.
