What is it about growing older? That seems to really freak some people out?
Yes, you can talk the good talk about growing old gracefully at all that. But some people just don’t want to grow old.
Or, at least, feel like they are growing old.
Such was the case with the long time editor-in-chief of Cosmopolitan magazine, Helen Gurley Brown.
After all, she had built her reputation from the 1960s on the idea of being youthful and sexy and vibrant.

So here now, from 1993, 71-year-old Helen Gurley Brown.
Helen Gurley Brown died in 2012. She was 90.
