  • Summary

  • Longevity vs ageism—are the two at war with each other? Or is there room for happy co-existence where we can live long with health and meaning?

    In this episode, I reflect on what the focus on longevity may be doing to our collective psyche and beliefs, and why it is important to be mindful in our pursuit for a longer life.

    Specific things I talk about:

    • Longevity—a means or an end?
    • Ageism, and its effects on healthy adult development
    • Elderhood, and its role in society
    • How do we pursue longevity while embracing age?
