Supporting You in Your Desire to Change

I discovered this African proverb recently, and it has moved me profoundly: “When an old person dies, a library burns to the ground.” I thought about these words for a long time, and I see them as absolutely true. They honor the immense, accumulated knowledge and life experience that exists within every older person, regardless […]

Your years of experience are your golden asset, and understanding ADEA – Age Discrimination Employment Act – empowers you. If you’re in your 50s and feel like you’re being overlooked and patronized at work because of your age, you’re not imagining it—and you have legal protections you may not know about.

At 92, Emma Maria Mazzenga just obliterated a world record—and my ideas about what’s possible in later life.

Music helps us feel less alone; it preserves and transmits human emotion across cultures and generations, providing a common language for feelings we struggle to express in words. Music is personal and […]

Time is both personal and universal, infinite and finite—one of the most valuable things in our lives. What we give our time and attention to defines us. The awareness of time can either limit or liberate us. At twenty, I felt I had endless time to figure things out. Now, as a senior, every choice […]

Aging touches everyone’s lives in different ways—whether we’re navigating our own aging process, caring for aging family members, or considering the broader societal implications of our aging populations.
