The Ageless Traveler

Judith Frizlen founded Rose Garden Childhood Learning Center and authored several books, including Where Wisdom Meets Wonder: 40 Stories of Grandma Love. She is an expert in early childhood education and has a deep passion for fostering meaningful relationships between grandparents and their grandchildren. 

Overview: In this Episode, I give you resources for Grandparents' Travel, one of the fastest-growing travel segments. I interviewed Judy Frizlen, founder of Rose Garden Childhood Learning Center and author of "Where Wisdom Meets Wonder," to discuss this growing trend. We explore the importance of building a solid relationship with grandchildren from an early age, the role of grandparents in guiding and supporting children, and the joy of sharing travel experiences together. Judy emphasizes flexibility, authenticity, and open-mindedness when traveling with grandchildren. She also offers tips for navigating parents' concerns and creating lasting memories with grandchildren.

About The Guest:
Adriane Berg, host of The Ageless Traveler podcast, speaks with Sharon Rose, a Social Gerontologist, about the profound impact of travel on intergenerational relationships and its role in combatting ageism.

Key Takeaway 

Gerontology, the study of aging from birth to death, primarily focuses on the 50 and over age group.

Intergenerational relationships play a pivotal role in challenging ageism and transforming perceptions of aging. 

Travel is a powerful tool for shattering stereotypes and fostering connections among individuals of different age groups. 

Travel offers older adults opportunities for social interaction and new experiences, effectively combating isolation. 

For older travelers, meticulous planning and preparation are vital to ensuring a smooth and enjoyable journey.
