Elise makes bold claims on the front flap of her book Superager. She says: You can look younger, have more energy, a better memory, and live a long and healthy life.

First of all, what in the world is a superager? And how come she feels so confident about claiming that we can all be one?

Elise is answering all those questions plus she shares inspiring stories of wise elders. We also talk about how aging has changed over time and what it means to age today. You can be a wild, wise, vibrant one too at age 70, 80, 90 and beyond. There is many things you can do for that.

“ According to those born on Okinawa, the island with the most centenarians in the world, our Ikigai is the reason we get up in the morning. Our Ikigai is hidden deep inside each of us, and finding it requires a patient search.”
Elise Marie Collins

 

What you get from tuning in:

  • What the heck is a Superager?
  • The inspiring story of May Musk and other women
  • How has aging changed over time and what does it mean for us today
  • The role of Ikigai as you age (and what is Ikigai anyway? And why should you care?)
  • Creative solutions to aging in your own space

 

“If there is a will, there’s a way”. In 2015, at age 99, Doreetha Daniels graduated from college with an associate degree in Social Sciences. She suffered several health setbacks along the way, but she never gave up. Doreetha is a living testament to the saying “if there is a will, there is a way”. From book Superager, pg 206.

Getting older is inevitable. Aging is optional!
