Diane Gage Lofgren

Diane is the author of nine books and scores of magazine articles on personal and business relationships. Currently, she serves as chief communication officer for a national health care company. Diane lives with her husband, Matt, in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. They have a grown son and daughter.

Diane and her coauthor, Margaret Bhola, wrote Women I Want to Grow Old With, a book designed to help women be intentional about making and sustaining female friendships. The book sprang from Diane and Margaret’s mutual desire to foster their female friendships--and their friendship with each other.

Their blog, https://womeniwanttogrowoldwith/blog, expands the conversation. The authors are passionate about encouraging women to learn from each other and to strengthen their safety net of female friends. In speaking engagements and interviews, Diane and Margaret like to ask, "If your life feel apart today, who are the first three women you'd call?" In other words, will you have the friends you want and need when you need friends the most? They encourage women to have fun and enjoy one another--to Grow Old Together With Courage, Health and Attitude--GOTCHA!
