Unframed 3: Invisible Women: Time to Throw off the Cloak

In episode three of my mini series of mini podcasts, I'm talking about something that comes up again and again - in both quiet conversations and loud frustrations. Invisibility. That creeping feeling of no longer being seen or noticed as we age, especially as women. Whether it's being ignored in a cafe queue, looked through as we walk into a gallery or walked past at a party, there's a moment many of us experience where it feels like the spotlight has quietly moved elsewhere. And if you're an artist and maker does that make your job of getting your work seen even harder?  I believe that creativity doesn't have a shelf life, and being in your 'prime' is just the be beginning. I talk about: Why "a certain age" is really just your "prime" How to show up fully and unapologetically The power of language and how we talk about ourselves Creative identity, visibility, and confidence How creative passion fuels vitality And why it's never too late to start - including a 75-year-old artist I mentored recently Plus, I share the story that inspired the episode - about a puppy, a coffee shop, and the moment you realise no one's looking anymore… until you make them. Whether you're 45, 55 or 75, if you've started to feel overlooked, it's time to fight back and throw off the Cloak of Invisibility.
