"Ageism Is a Subconscious Bias"

a2a - the art 2 aging ·

2025/01/03

Where does ageism begin? In the home? In the workplace? In the media?Well, the simple and not entirely flippant answer is that ageism begins in all those places.But its actual genesis is within the minds of each of us.Hermetic philosophy puts it succinctly: “As within, so without.” Everything that we experience – everything – began as an idea and an idea is a thought.So, what we think repeatedly – or worse, what we’re taught to think – we experience or encounter in our physical, everyday lives.Such

After One Year, A Look Back...

2024/12/20

It was back in January 2024 that my creative partner, Dave Grein, and I began to explore an idea for a podcast and content series on Substack dealing with “getting old.” Dave came up with the name –The Art 2 Aging – along with our logo.We got to work. I booked guests, conducted the interviews and Dave did the production work to make each episode sound great. We lined up enough content that we could generate at least a dozen episodes before we launched in mid-May of this year.To date, we have 30

How To Create A Life

2024/12/13

It was that prolific and prescient playwright, George Bernard Shaw, who stated that “youth is wasted on the young.” He expanded on that in later writings: “they're brainless, and don't know what they have; they squander every opportunity of being young, on being young.”While this may sound petty and rather mean, Shaw inadvertently makes a larger point. Life cannot be comprehended until it is lived.It’s only then that we begin to glean some sense and reason to living. That’s when we can finally

Is Vitamin K2 A Blockbuster?

2024/12/06

A chance encounter at a 2016 lecture in London left Dr. Barbara Barrett, a doctor of natural medicine, fascinated by a little known vitamin.She called it a “jaw-dropping” moment. That’s how blown away she was with the potential health benefits of this vitamin, particularly for older people.Barbara had also found the focus for her PhD thesis and she dove into the available research with a passion.This week on The Art 2 Aging, Barbara shares what she discovered about this hitherto little known

A Demographic Crisis?

a2a - the art 2 aging ·

2024/11/29

The world is growing older. Many of us know that. What we may not fully realize is that there aren’t enough babies being born to keep populations in “age balance.”So, what happens when people over the age of 65 outnumber those under 18? We’re already there.What happens to healthcare and long term care for those in their 90s? And that’s a cohort that’s skyrocketing, by the way.No one knows with certainty but there is one man who has a pretty good idea of what’s going to shake out. Some of it is good

Sustainable Happiness at 73

2024/11/22

Psychologists tell us that our formative years are roughly the first seven years of our lives. Those years are when we, as children, are sponges soaking up what we see and hear around us. So it was for Kathie Donovan. So it is for all of us.We accept what we hear from our parents and early teachers about ourselves without questioning its veracity. If we’re lucky, what we hear about ourselves is positive for the most part.But often that’s not the case and we grow up with beliefs that we are not good

Wills and estates.Alongside life insurance, wills and estates are two things most people don’t want to think about, let alone do any planning around what happens to their assets when they die.This is why 68% of Americans and about 50% of Canadians will give their heirs lots of headaches at death.This week, The Art 2 Aging takes a very practical look at wills, estates, estate planning and death taxes.We have engaged the expertise of a top financial planner in Toronto, Canada to help navigate the ins

Take Two

How many of us are working in jobs or professions that no longer fulfill us?Plenty.But most of us don’t see a way out; we need to continue to work for the paycheck, to support our families, to pay our bills.What we yearn for, while heading off each morning to a job that leaves us feeling empty, is an inner sense of meaning.James Adams felt that way. He was a senior marketing executive with decades of experience, an entrepreneur in the food industry, and he was fed up.So in his 60s, he embarked on

The NBA kicked off its 79th season this past Tuesday, for those of you who are into basketball.In 79 years, the game has come a long, long way. It’s a truly international sport, the seventh most popular game in the world, according to World Atlas.The NBA itself is international in terms of team rosters with 125 players from 40 different countries outside the United States donning team jerseys this season.But we’ll bet that the league has only seen one foreign player who is related to the Russian

Are Statins A Scam?

Did you know that 50% of American men between 65 and 74 take statins? How about women? Try 39% of women 75 and older.There are a further 8 million people in the UK who take statins at a cost of 100 million pounds a year to the National Health Service.What is going on? Do statins even work? Or are they just another drug to make Big Pharma even wealthier?Well, this week, we’re going to deep dive into statins to see if they in fact work. To do that, we have brought back a former guest, Australian

Retirement Myths Abound

2024/10/11

What does retirement look like for you? Have you thought about what you’ll do with all that time on your hands?All too often, we are told what a ‘retirement age’ should be and then we are shown images of retired people enjoying long walks along beaches or lounging poolside on a cruise ship – in other words, we are almost spoon-fed stereotypes by marketing and advertising agencies.Our guest this week on The Art 2 Aging begs to differ and she has the research to back up her contrarian views of what

You go to Arizona to play golf for two weeks and do some serious journaling as well.What Gail discovered (besides still having a slice) was that she wanted to be a writer. Long story short, she did become a writer and founded a content creation company in the process.Today, the company routinely earns revenue in the millions and at the age of 69, Gail is still going

How should we be looking at aging in the 21st century?There are a lot of ways we could tackle that question.We could come at it from the point of view of health and medical breakthroughs occurring continually around longevity.We could examine the question by considering whether or not we shift our thinking around retirement.Or, like our guest this week, we take on all of the challenges and throw in the elephant in the room – ageism – at the same time.Helen Hirsh Spence is a retired Canadian

Nearly 30 years ago, a University of Toronto professor named David Foot wrote a book called Boom, Bust and Echo.The book dealt with how the global population was aging and how savvy investors could profit from the graying trend that would become a tidal wave. In fact, Foot referred to it in terms akin to those of a tidal wave.The book was a best seller. 30 years ago. Foot wasn’t blowing smoke; everything that he said would come to pass, did.So, if he knew this and wrote a book about it, why are we

Technology Is Great

Baby boomers have grown up with technology. We’ve seen enormous change over the past seven decades. It’s staggering what has transpired since the days of telephone “party” lines in homes, rotary dial phones, two or three TV channels via an outside antenna – the list goes on.So, it’s always odd to hear someone who is NOT a baby boomer make the assumption that older people are clueless about technology. We’re not.But what can baffle us is the complexity of technology today. Which baffles many who are

A company called Rest Less has released the results of a survey it did on self employed individuals in the U.K.Rest Less has a simple mission: help those in their 50s and older to find jobs. What their survey discovered is that a record number of individuals over 60 have become self-employed. This represents nearly a quarter of all of those in the U.K. who work for themselves.It would be a real stretch to say that all those self-employed over 60 are dying to work for themselves.
