Living Ageless and Bold

Dr. Kerry Burnight is a gerontologist and the New York Times bestselling author of Joyspan: The Art and Science of Thriving in Life’s Second Half. Known as “America’s Gerontologist,” she taught geriatric medicine and gerontology for 18 years at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine and co-founded the nation’s first Elder Abuse Forensic Center. Her work helps people approach aging with greater confidence, connection, and purpose.

In this episode, Kerry sits down with Christina to discuss why living longer isn’t enough if you aren’t enjoying your life. She introduces the concept of “joyspan” and explores how to challenge negative beliefs about aging, recognize the strengths that develop with experience, and build meaningful friendships later in life. Drawing on stories from her work and her mother, Betty, Kerry also shares how joy and grief can coexist, why small acts of kindness matter, and how a simple gratitude practice can help us find more meaning in the years ahead.
