In this episode, we’re diving into something I believe is foundational to how we age and experience life: the two modes we tend to operate from—Learning Mode and Protecting Mode. These inner states are like two lenses through which we see the world, and they quietly shape our relationships, our decisions, our health, and even how we feel in our own skin.
Let’s explore what they are—and more importantly, why becoming aware of which mode you’re in could change your life.

💃 DON'T LET THE OLD LADY IN Conversations with Lorie
Helping women create their healthiest chapter yet.
What if getting older wasn't about becoming less...
but about becoming more of who you were always meant to be?
Welcome to Don't Let the Old Lady In: Conversations with Lorie—a warm, thought-provoking podcast for women who want to age with strength, vitality, purpose, and joy.
I'm Lorie Gardner, a Registered Nurse, Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Healthcare Advocate, and Longevity Coach. For more than four decades, I've had the privilege of walking alongside people through some of life's most meaningful moments. Those experiences have taught me that healthy aging is about so much more than preventing disease or adding years to your life.
It's about staying connected to yourself.
Each Tuesday, I'll invite you into a guided coaching conversation where we'll explore the questions that help you slow down, reflect, and create lasting change—one small step at a time.
Together, we'll talk about healthy aging, strength, nutrition, brain health, emotional well-being, healthcare advocacy, purpose, relationships, resilience, and what it truly means to create your healthiest chapter.
These aren't lectures.
They're conversations.
Conversations that help you reconnect with yourself, trust your inner wisdom, and remember what it feels like to be fully alive.
So pour yourself a cup of coffee, take a deep breath, and join me each week.
Because I believe your healthiest chapter isn't behind you.
It may be the one you're about to create.
One conversation. One small step. One healthier chapter.
