Join Us For Our Third Visible & Vital Event, With Robin Aiello.
By Karen and Erica
Please join us on Thursday, April 28, at 3 pm, for the third event in our series Visible & Vital, part of our collaboration with Revel.
Revel is a social platform and trusted space for women over age 50 to connect with new friends, online and in person, and explore a variety of experiences.
Our culture focuses on the losses that come with aging, but good things happen too. We are more patient, compassionate, less judgmental, and accept ourselves to a degree we couldn’t in our youth. While our physical beauty fades, we compensate by finding strength and courage that wasn’t there before. We’re no longer competing, we’re collaborating. In acknowledging that our need for connection is mutual, we Revelers create a welcoming environment where we can share our joys, fears, concerns, and common spirit.
With Revel, we are creating Visible & Vital: a six-part series bridging generations and geography. We will have candid conversations with compelling women who are tackling big issues that impact us all. These discussions will unite women across the country, of all ages and stages, who want to reimagine and redefine the next phase of their lives.
Our third talk on Visible & Vital airs this Thursday, April 28, at 3 pm EDT, noon PDT. We will speak with Robin Aiello, of whom more below. For our first, we spoke with Stacey Rosen, a doctor revolutionizing women’s health, and for our second, Sharon Weinberg, who has had many careers and now owns a bookstore. In later segments, we will be featuring a major designer who understands what we want from our clothes—and who will show us the latest in fashion; an angel investor who will speak about the non-financial joys of investing in woman-owned companies; and for the grand finale, Erica and Karen will talk about their careers, and the foundation those careers gave them for their adventures with Lustre.
This Thursday we will be speaking with Robin Aiello. She is a renowned marine biologist, paleontologist, evolutionary biologist and professional scuba diver. She was one of the first women ever to scuba dive in the Antartica, diving in the Ross Sea under ice sixteen feet thick. She spent two weeks living deep under water in the Caribbean. She leads scuba diving expeditions all over the world, from both poles to Asia, Africa and the Great Barrier Sea. You might wish to join her—she is a member of Silversea’s Expedition Team, and she leads cruise expeditions in gorgeous places. She is a graduate of Harvard College, with highest honors in Evolutionary Biology and Geological Sciences, having studied with the renowned Stephen Gould. She is a published author and a sought after lecturer. She’s also gorgeous and entertaining—even when she is not way down under the ocean.
Please join us on Thursday with Robin. You will love her, and Revel, and maybe you will decide to learn how to dive!
