Season 2 Episode 22:Kerry Burnight: Rethinking Aging with More Joy and Less Pressure
What if aging isn't about trying to stay young, but about learning how to live well through every stage of life?
This week, we sit down with renowned gerontologist and bestselling author Dr. Kerry Burnight to talk about the difference between lifespan, healthspan, and what she calls "joy span"—the ability to cultivate purpose, connection, resilience, and fulfillment no matter what life throws your way. From changing the stories we tell ourselves about getting older to embracing growth, adapting to life's hardest moments, and remembering that we always have something meaningful to give, this conversation is full of practical wisdom for anyone who's ever wondered what it really means to age well.
