In this episode, Jamie, Avery, and Lucy talk about getting older! We reflect on what it’s been like for us personally as we go through our middle age stage of life—physically, emotionally, and socially. We discuss society’s view of aging including some of the negative stereotypes associated with aging and how many of us have internalized negative messages about aging. We also explore resistance to aging versus embracing aging, and share our own fears and excitement about getting older.
Do try this at home:
- Be mindful of what we want for ourselves as we age.
- Be present and treasure what you have rather than what you don’t have.
- Embrace the adventure of each day. As we get older, life can get richer and more meaningful in so many ways!
