Aging Well, Letting Go & Unexpected Happiness: An 80 Year Old's View


Listen Later

Episode 32: Dr. Esty holds a Ph.D. in social psychology from Boston University. To write her book, she interviewed more than 120 people over 80 from across the United States. Dr. Esty focused on interviewing those living exciting lives, purposeful lives, and who would have something to share about what is possible when you're in your 80s. Katharine is on a mission to foster a new understanding of living fully in our 80s and beyond.

Dr. Esty, now 87, continues with her private practice and is featured in the New York Times’ opinion section. She lives in a retirement community West of Boston and is a mother of four sons, as well as being a grandmother.
