Fearlessly Facing Fifty And Beyond

EP 88: Pearls From Persis: Age is just a number


Listen Later

How about traveling to Tanzania at 85 and then to Iceland at 90?  Meet Persis Laverack...a 93 year -old woman who will share her insight and pearls with all of us.  Think of this as one of those amazing fireside chats with Roosevelt.  This conversation will leave you inspired.

Age is just a number!

Meet Persis ... She just turned 93!
She's taking her daily 2 mile walk!  Persis drives her new 2020 pearl white Subaru to wherever she wants to go, pops the hatchback, pulls out her walker and off she goes!
Persis is a woman who keeps busy. She defies the myths  - she's on social media, she texts and she Zooms. And yes - there's the 2 mile daily walks.

I feel honored to have spent 30 minutes talking with a woman who has so much knowledge and advice to share.  We talk about life, relationships, marriage, grief and of course, COVID.
