Making the world a better place since 1956. Still creating. Still contributing. Still learning. Still laughing. Still leading. Still visible, connected and engaged with all the generations. And still saying YES to new adventures.

She's absolutely right. The new wave of influencers are going to be 60+. Here are 15 creators over 65 I love following. Because the best role models don't make us wish we were younger… They make us excited about what's ahead and what's possible. ✨

America survives because, in every generation, honest citizens organize, demand change, and refuse to accept the unacceptable. Working together, we rebuild America. ~ People's Guide to Rebuilding American Democracy Happy 4th! 🎆🎉🎇🇺🇲 Stay cool and stay safe. ✌️💖🙋🏼‍♀️

At 79, Steve Robinson is proving that reinvention isn’t just possible, it’s powerful. After 50+ years in public radio, he became a beginner again, learning new tools, new tech & creating award-winning work like a 13-hour documentary on Billie Holiday. 🤯 www.dontbecagedbyyourage.com/from-public-...

Ageism doesn’t stand a chance when generations connect. In my newest solo episode of Don't Be Caged By Your Age, I explore how intergenerational relationships dismantle ageism — in friendships, at work, and in life. 👇 www.dontbecagedbyyourage.com/how-intergen...

What does aging with wit + wisdom look like? It looks like shouting “I’M EIGHTY!” in the streets of Paris. 🇫🇷✨ Melinda Blau is 82 and absolutely delicious. Author of The Wisdom Whisperers, she’s still writing, still questioning, still challenging ageism & still learning from women in their 90s.

🐴 Pastures are for horses - not humans. Somewhere along the way, we were taught that once we hit 65, we’re supposed to slow down, fade out & head for the proverbial pasture. But life after 65 isn’t a retreat ... it’s a reinvention. ✨ www.dontbecagedbyyourage.com/pastures-are...
