On this episode of The Middle Ground with Tom Letizia, we welcome back Las Vegas native and Long-Life Era® founder Marla Letizia for an inspiring and nostalgic conversation. Marla opens up about her new book, co-authored with her longtime friend Jean, diving into the themes of reinvention, purpose, and friendship later in life.
She also takes us on a heartfelt journey through her childhood in 1950s Las Vegas — sharing vivid memories of a city before the megaresorts, where small-town charm met big dreams. From soda fountains and Strip performers to wisdom gained over the decades, Marla offers a unique perspective on how the past shapes the vibrant future she champions today.
Tune in for a powerful mix of personal storytelling, book insights, and a little Vegas history you won’t hear anywhere else.
