I am 70 y/o. One thing I have learned is that humans are more flexible that they realize. I have had several careers not because I wanted to change because I had to. Farm labor, flour mill work, clinical pharmacist, large scale organic farmer were some of the major things I did. I would have loved to farm all my life. But I had a special needs child and I needed health insurance. So I went to pharmacy school for three years when I was 34. I studied seven hours a day and finished near the top of my class. Some classmates called me "geezer." I did pharmacy for a number of years and made good money and had health insurance too! When my son got into college he could get insurance, I quit pharmacy and returned to farming. I would not have made all these changes unless I had to do them. And I found I got a lot of satisfaction by learning new things and doing them well. Life is an adventure!

My grandma just passed at 104 and she talked about love, angels and eating close to nature. Family and love ❤️ first. She reminds me of my grandma. Great interview. Thank you. 😊

Only the fact that she is sitting with 103yo in front of a computer having a zoomcall shows how openminded she is. Positive person, willing to learn and never stop living but waiting for the end.

I am in my early 60s and retired at 53. Lots of people gave me pushback because they had difficulty grasping the concept of not working if you don’t have to. I looked at my life as stages. I earned everything I have now through a lot of hard work, but I owe it to myself to “stop and smell the roses” in my final stage of life. In my case I left the country after I retired and live in Latin America. It allowed me to get away from all the negative things happening in America while appreciating my new environment. I have yet to meet anyone who regrets retirement.

Dr. Gladys lives a small home filled with amazing treasures. Plants, old seeds, jams and jellies for the tea she offers her guests. Try the advice she just gave- LET YOUR PROBLEMS GO. Release the doors you locked so tight. Good things will visit you. I know I am
One of her old patients,
She is my friend, she is my mentor.

The wisdom of age. She has lived and deserves to be listened to and respected.

Please remove the background music. It is nice to hear to pure conversation instead of being distracted by the music.

One of the things I notice about her is she doesn't get hung up on grief and loss, and I am sure she has had a lifetime of it. That is a tricky one for people to navigate. Grief ages people tremendously. The pain is practically etched on their faces. Finding the joy in living no matter your circumstances is mandatory in living a happy life. There's no getting around it.

SHE is one awesome example of WHY we need to listen to our elders !!! Blessed she is !!

I am 71. What has surprised me is how much easier it is to enjoy life in older age. Often things that caused me sorrow or anxiety no longer upset me, and I have also made tough decisions. I finally came to grips with the reality that some people in my life are bad for me, treating me as a lesser being or treating my dreams with contempt (narcissistic or borderline personality disorder) and distanced myself from them. These are relatives I loved who used me as a psychological punching bag when their lives disappointed them. I stripped much of the complexity from my life to make it richer (less is more). Being a naturally solitary person, I do not interact much with my community, but I do recognize that it has systems that help me enjoy my life.

Even in my unhappiest times, I have loved learning. That helped me return to the light.
