On this conversation we discuss the wonderful book by Nora Ephram, "I Feel Bad About My Neck." Nora is known for When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, and You’ve Got Mail (among many others) and the book is delightful. She shares humorous and poignant insights into getting older, particularly about being an older woman and all that this entails. We hope you enjoy our favorite moments from the book and sharing our personal reflections that the book brought to each of us. (47:44)
