Stories about the ongoing dramas in our lives as we age are not being told because women find it difficult to be honest about what`s going on - about, for example, our heightened sexuality as we age or about living in a society that only values youth.
Sometimes I feel as if four thousand years of silencing women, of the fear of women who were burned in oil or eviscerated in front of their daughters, is imprinted deep within me and has altered my DNA.
So I constantly play women who are damaged and out of touch, who are seeking without knowing, or knowing without the skills to transform their lives. But then, that`s really the fate of many women today.
Thankfully, it became clear to me that when I compete, I lose my connection to the passion I have for my work.
