What is Ageism? Ableism? What are everyday ageism’s? What can we do to liberate ourselves from the challenges of aging?

I am so excited for you to hear this conversation that wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t said what the f*ck! I’ve always said, it never hurts to ask, and I am walking that walk these days.

I first saw Ashton Applewhite on CBS Sunday Morning and I was pulled to reach out to even though I felt it would be a long shot.

Loving Later Lifer’s, I am beyond happy to say that she said yes.

Ashton is an internationally recognized expert on ageism, and the author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism.

A co-founder of the Old School Anti-Ageism Clearinghouse, she speaks widely at venues that have included the TED mainstage, the United Nations and is at the forefront of the emerging movement to raise awareness of ageism and to dismantle it.

In 2022 the Decade of Healthy Aging, a UN + WHO collaboration, named Ashton one of the Healthy Aging 50: fifty leaders transforming the world to be a better place to grow older.

I know without a doubt that you will find this a compelling conversation. Treat yourself to this 47-minute episode to gain awareness about this ‘ism’ that can be used as a catalyst for change.
