Aging can bring about its share of challenges. Some of us are now widowed, some of us are divorced and some of us have remained single our entire lives. There can be a certain stigma to being single. However, if we are honest with ourselves, many of us know that the single life can be both fulfilling and fun. And that’s where today’s guest comes in.

Bella DePaulo (who received her Ph.D. from Harvard University) has always been single and always will be. In fact, The Atlantic calls her “America’s foremost thinker and writer on the single experience.” Her TEDx talk, What No One Ever Told You About People Who Are Single, has been viewed more than 1.7 million times.

We are thrilled to have her join us today to share all about her book entitled. Single at Heart: The Power, Freedom, and Heart-Filling Joy of Single Life. If you are living single or knows someone who is, you’ll want to make sure you hear what Dr. DePaulo has to share!

As we boomers know, one of the best ways to keep learning and growing in our golden years is through travel and experiencing new and interesting places. That’s why I’m especially excited about interviewing our guest, Andrew Nelson.

Andrew is an award-winning writer and editor for National Geographic Traveler who has made his way through all 50 states as well as numerous countries for the magazine and the website. He served as director of editorial projects for National Geographic Travel in Washington, D.C. and throughout her career, he has no doubt been lucky enough to witness many beautiful and awe-inspiring sights.

We are especially lucky to have him join us to share all about a must-read book from National Geographic called Here Not There: 100 Unexpected Travel Destinations. I know each of you is going to want to have this one on your coffee table so that you can come back to it time after time.

So be sure to listen to what Andrew has to say so that you, too, can plan a trip where you can explore and enjoy the experience without fighting mobs of other tourists!

As we boomers know, one of the true joys in life is sharing memorable stories with our middle-grade grandchildren… especially those books that are both thought provoking and a great read. And that’s where today’s guest comes in.

Aida Salazar is an award-winning author and arts activist whose writings for adults and children explore issues of identity and social justice. Her previous books for children, adults and middle-grade readers include The Moon Within, Land of the Cranes, A Seed in the Sun, In the Spirit of a Dream, and Jovita Wore Pants: The Story of a Mexican Freedom Fighter. These books have garnered both critical acclaim as well as a major fan base of young readers. One of her short stories, "By the Light of the Moon" was even adapted into a ballet production so Aida truly is a woman of the arts.

Now she’s joining us to share all about her latest book entitled Ultraviolet: Sometimes Life Explodes in Technicolor. It’s a great read that you’ll want to share with your grandchildren (especially your grandsons) so be sure to tune in!

Age brings about a number of challenges in many areas of our lives. Without a doubt, one of the most challenging of these is connecting with and supporting our young adult children who return to live at home.

Our guest, Dr. Anthony Rostain has joined forces with Dr. Janet Hibbs to create an essential guide for parents of young adult children who are living at home. Their book is called You’re Not Done Yet: Parenting Young Adults in an Age of Uncertainty. This highly accomplished physician is an author, a nationally recognized expert in child and adolescent psychiatry, Chair and Chief of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health at Cooper University Health Care, and Professor of Psychiatry and Pediatrics at Cooper University Medical School.  In fact, Dr. Rostain is a true expert who holds a wealth of both education and experience. We are awfully lucky to have him share his thoughts on this difficult and often painful situation.

Therefore, if you, or anyone you care about, is experiencing the difficulties inherent to dealing with young adult children who live at home, you won’t want to miss this one!
