Love @ this BIG Age: Love in Later Years
Happy Holidays! Happy New Year!
Our Flesh ‘N Bold hosts, Drs. Heard & Heard-Garris are here to help you close the year out by discussing LOVE. In this episode, the good professors talk about love for the aged, using their mom's perspective about love and her NEW relationship as a case study. Where do we get our models of romantic love from, what are our standards for a partner, and how do we show up in these relationships? Dr. Heard wonders if standards in our "younger" years change as we move into our "older" years, and if older people really want commitment? Our hosts infuse research (as usual) to round out the conversation with companionship, money, and loneliness. And Mom imparts some wisdom to the listeners about love, "buy the cow and her partner needs to pay for everything." Keep listening for more pearls in colorful language that only she uniquely can offer. And as usual, please don’t forget to like, share, and discuss!
Producers: Nevin J. Heard and Nia J. Heard-Garris
Music: “Clay”; “LA”; “Sneak Chase” by Podington Bear
