What if the best days of our lives were to come in our 70s or later? The societal norms around aging are far from optimistic, preferring to frame the process around dotage and frailty. But such views are increasingly being challenged, not least because the evidence suggests we can be active, purposeful and fulfilled, well beyond the traditional age of retirement.
In her book, Turning: The Magic and Mystery of More Days, Becky Blue delves into the emotional, physical, and psychological aspects of aging, offering a roadmap to a vibrant and meaningful life at any age. She encourages people, particularly women, to take control of how they grow older with a new perspective rooted in empowerment.
In this interview we explore Blue's unique approach to aging, longevity, and how we can all redefine what it means to grow older.

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire.
