Description
Wendy Watson, Sandra Faulkner, and Charlie Stelle published a 2023 study of older women's life stories. Research shows relationships sit at the heart of older women's lives. The team interviewed 31 women aged 64 to 86 about their ties across a whole life.
The women spoke of family roots, friends, romances, children, and grandchildren. They told how each bond grew and how they kept it alive, even through COVID-19. Their tales built a picture of who they are, alone and with others. A poetic analysis of the interview text drew out shared themes. Resilience, bouncing back from hard times, runs through the stories as a key thread.
