EP 77 The New Old: How to Age Magnificently

✨ "I'm living my life in the best way possible, and I want to have a wonderful time as long as I'm here." ~ Erika Andersen

In this uplifting and joy-filled conversation, I sit down with Erika Andersen, bestselling author of The New Old: Crafting Your Best Later Life, to explore what it truly means to age magnificently.

Erika and I explore how to consciously create a vibrant, purpose-filled third act - one grounded in curiosity, community, and intention. She shares stories and insights that remind us aging isn’t an ending, but a new beginning filled with possibilities for growth, purpose, and connection.

Here’s what we talk about:
🌿 Why aging magnificently is a choice, not luck
💫 How curiosity keeps us lifeful and open
💪 Why purpose doesn’t retire, it evolves
🧘‍♀️ The power of mindset and mindfulness in later life
🌍 The joy of learning new things at any age
❤️ Why community and connection are essential to thriving

Every moment becomes more precious as we age, and Erika’s wisdom is a beautiful reminder that it’s never too late to learn, grow, and glow.
