In this episode, Dr Tom is joined by Dr Anne Karpf, award-winning journalist and author of How to Age. Anne challenges us to rethink ageing, highlighting that it's not just about defying numbers or succumbing to stereotypes. Join us as we explore the possibility of living until 100, navigating the gender wealth gap, challenging the anti-ageing industry, and planning our futures both financially and emotionally. Tune in to imagine your future self not with fear, but with excitement and curiosity.
