The Pretty Intellectual

Welcome to the YouTube channel for The Pretty Intellectual,  a welcoming space for women in mid-life. We share everything from fashion and beauty to books and culture through a wry, over-40 perspective.  

Here, you can connect with other women whose parents are also aging, or whose relationships with partners are changing, or whose jobs are unfulfilling or taking off in unexpected ways, or who have found a new book, a new lipstick, an old memory or pair of shoes that is bringing so much joy they can’t wait to tell us all about it.  That’s what we’re going for here. Hot flashes welcome, not required.

Why The Pretty Intellectual? Many (so many!) of us grew up being told we were either the pretty one or the smart one. But we're not either/or. We're both, we're all of it—perhaps more one than the other on some days, but hey. That's life.  For more, join the Substack community: https://theprettyintellectual.substack.com/
