[B]OLD AGE With Debbie Weil

A podcast about moving from midlife to old age. It takes courage and boldness. The clock is ticking and you can feel it. What's old age really like? How do you (boldly) slow down and focus on "being" rather than "doing" when you've been driven by ambition your whole life? Debbie was 67 when she started the podcast. Old age seemed very far away. Now, as she turns 72, it doesn't. But she's still not done. How do you reinvent purpose? How do you use the last stage of life to find meaning, to make a difference, and to create a legacy? How do you cope with illness and debility, if not yours then that of your parents or friends? Or can you ignore "old age" if you are vigorous and in good health? Each episode is a frank 30-minute conversation with a best-selling author, expert, or exceptional individual on a topic related to making the most of growing old. With her guests she delves into: the unretired (non-retired) life, slowing down, ageism, senior sex, intergenerational collaboration, grandparenting, grief and widowhood, and more. As well as other stuff that piques her interest: for example, the craft of writing. Her husband, physician author Sam Harrington, is a popular recurring guest with his dry humor and medical expertise. Debbie and Sam took a grownup gap year at age 61, leaving behind a comfortable life in Washington D.C. They’ve been exploring an "unretired" life ever since on an island off the coast of Maine.
