- 1. When Did This Happen? What Nobody Teaches You About Aging
What if aging was not something you were supposed to have figured out, but something you were allowed to learn as you go?
At some point, you may look in the mirror, leave a doctor’s appointment, struggle to get off the couch, or notice life feels different than it used to and quietly wonder, “When did this happen?”
Aging can feel surprising, confusing, funny, frustrating, and deeply personal. You are taught how to build a career, raise a family, save for retirement, and take care of everyone else, but very few people teach you how to actually age well.
Positive aging is not about pretending growing older is easy. It is about learning how to face change with purpose, resilience, curiosity, connection, gratitude, and humor.
You will discover:
• Why aging can feel like it arrived without warning
• What no one really teaches you about growing older• Why health, purpose, relationships, technology, and mindset all matter• How humor can help you navigate the awkward and unexpected parts of aging• Why growing older does not mean becoming invisible• How this chapter of life can still be meaningful, joyful, and full of wisdomEvery wrinkle carries a story. Every season brings something to learn. And every stage of life still holds meaning.

You will discover:
• Why meaningful human connection can be as important as physical care
• How David’s cancer journey transformed his perspective on aging• What positive aging looks like in real life• Why purpose, resilience, relationships, gratitude, and humor matter as we grow older• What you can expect from future conversations on health, aging, connection, and living wellEvery wrinkle carries a story.
