Project Longevity Season 1 – Ep. 6 – Sandra Mason
Host Caulen Foster sits down with Sandra Mason — the warm, quick-witted fan favorite from The Golden Bachelor — to talk about what it really means to age gracefully on your own terms. From lip-syncing Motown in high school to game-show wins on The Newlywed Game and Wheel of Fortune, and finally standing out among 35,000 applicants to join a national reality show in her seventies, Sandra has spent a lifetime saying "why not?" She shares her refreshingly simple philosophy of longevity: aging is a verb, sitting is the enemy, and the goal is to keep moving, stay connected, and take care of yourself first. Along the way she opens up about beating loneliness, taking baby steps, healing from divorce, and embracing the present without a five-year plan.
About the Guest
Sandra Mason captured hearts on The Golden Bachelor with her warmth, authenticity, and confident approach to love later in life. A self-described "Southern gal" now based in the Atlanta area, she has been in front of the camera for decades — from early game shows and television commercials to raising a family and building a corporate career before her breakout reality-TV moment. Today she is a passionate voice for healthy aging, resilience, emotional wellness, and embracing new chapters at any age, encouraging others to move more, connect deeply, and meet life's next opportunity with a simple "why not?"
Topics Covered
Sandra's remarkable path from lip-syncing Motown to The Newlywed Game, Wheel of Fortune, and The Golden Bachelor — one of 23 chosen from 35,000 applicants
Why "aging" is a verb: the "ing" philosophy of doing, moving, and staying active instead of sitting
Sandra's personal longevity mantra — for every hour spent sitting, spend two hours doing something
Her four pillars of longevity: sleeping well, limiting alcohol, taking medications as prescribed, and exercising
Social connection and hobbies as medicine — and why loneliness can be a silent killer
Approaching new opportunities by asking "Why not me?" instead of "Why me?"
Action over regimen: taking baby steps and just doing it, without obsessive routines
Taking care of yourself first — and why self-care is what lets you show up for the people who need you
Planning ahead in the golden years, from estate planning to being fully present
Overcoming her biggest challenge, divorce, and how time heals — plus reframing "failure" as learning
