What if we all looked forward to growing old? Embracing age is a new trend among some millennials and really, why not? That cohort has already given us body positivity, so aiming high, in years, is surely the next trend. Unless it crashes into the wall of ageism. And ageism, dear listeners, is the happiness killer coming for us all.

Ageism 101: It seeps into every aspect of our lives, from invisibility to careers and relationships but what many do not know is that ageism can lead also to depression and premature death. In a world growing older, we examine the impact of age prejudice in a conversation that challenges and inspires.

Mary Hynes, advocate for older adults with the lived experience of 80 years; Kyrié Carpenter, "Crone-in-Training" and co-founder of Old School Hub; and Dr. Samir Sinha, geriatrician, director of health policy research at the National Institute on Ageing.
