Level Up: Shifting Our Perspective About Aging and Defying Stereotypes

  • Summary

  • Why do we think that we have to look or behave a certain way when we get older? And how can we change that?

    Well, thankfully not everyone thinks this way, but if you still do find yourself getting hung up on a particular number, you are not alone and it is not your fault. It's mainly because of outdated narratives telling us that once you've passed a certain age, it's time to throw in the towel, which couldn't be further from the truth.  In this episode, we're proving those stereotypes wrong.

    Here are some of the inspirational influencers mentioned in this episode:

    • Joan MacDonald
    • Ernestine Shepherd
    • Irvin Randle
    • Angie Schmitt 
    • Chalene Johnson 


    If you want to shift your perspective about aging, I suggest following these accounts and any other accounts that defy the outdated stereotypes of what aging should look like. Surround yourself with more people like this and you will no longer look at aging as something to be feared, but as something to celebrate.

    Perspective is everything. This is how we level up.
