I listened to a podcast the other day that gave three examples of gossip - although I'm not sure about one of the examples if it's a true example of gossip - nevertheless it got me thinking about gossip and what it is.
In this episode, I focus on the term "triangulation." That's when you go to a third party to talk about another person whether it's about finding out some details of the person, their situation or relaying details yourself. Gossip maybe a way to find out something about someone else that can be disguised as information, but gossip is usually for the benefit of the teller and listener, and seldom for the benefit of the subject of the gossip. Most gossip if not all is a form of entertainment and can be, if done maliciously, very damaging for the subject. In my life, I was a subject of gossip. I never understood the purpose of it. In midlife, as I grew as a person and spiritual being, I encouraged people to always find the truth of the situation - whatever it may be - from the source, the subject of the intended gossip. I talk about that here in this RAW and OFF-THE-CUFF episode about gossip.
Midlife on Fire is an anthology book series and a podcast and exists to continue the discussion about what we, as women, encounter in midlife. Promoting, amplifying, supporting women in midlife.
The anthology and the podcast showcase stories from women who experience this potentially tumultuous part of their lives as a reordering, maybe a reckoning, and always as a rebirth as vital voices in the dialogue of life, love and art.
I want to find women for guests on my podcast who have stories to tell about how they are defying our societies demands on women in midlife. Demands to disappear, to go quietly, to accept their place that is no place. Women who defy the antiquated notion that as women age they become less useful, less valuable, and the only power we ever had was our youth. Women coming out into the light and do it in their own way, carving out space for themselves that not redefine them, but rather find the manifestation of the real essence of the human buried beneath the expectations of society.
If you'd like to get in touch, be a guest and/or submit a story to be read by me (you can be anonymous) on "air" (recorded) in a segment called 'Midlife at Midnight', please go to: https://www.restlessspiritproductions.com/mofpodcaststories, and click on the link on the page and fill out the form.
