What if aging wasn’t about slowing down… but waking up?

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Ken Kelling — a seasoned PR veteran turned life coach — to explore what it really means to age with grace, purpose, and power. From career transitions and post-retirement identity crises to lifelong curiosity, loneliness, masculinity, and intergenerational connection, we unpack the mindset shifts that make or break the later stages of life.

Ken shares wisdom drawn from decades of experience — and his own journey of reinvention after 50 — to help you prepare now for a more meaningful future, no matter your age.

🎧 Topics we explore:

- Why retirement is more than pensions — it’s about mindset

- The myth of "putting your feet up"

- How to stay curious, adventurous & connected as you age

- Navigating loneliness, community & modern masculinity

- Identity beyond your job title

- Why your future self is your responsibility
