“Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.” – John Lennon
What if you could become more superhuman the older you got? After all, it’s function – not age – that makes the biggest difference to how you feel.
Joining us today is David Stewart, the founder and face of AGEIST, a media company dedicated to championing the vitality, influence, and contributions of the modern 50-plus demographic.
As a leading authority in this field, Dave has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, The Times, and Forbes magazine. He also consults for a wide range of Fortune 500 brands and businesses.
Outside of this work, he is an award-winning photographer and creative director, whose portfolio includes multiple magazine covers and global advertising campaigns.
In this episode, we’re going to talk about:
How to extract the most joy and fulfillment from the later stages of life
The biggest mistakes people make when they turn 50
Why retiring is the fastest way to die; and
The mindset you need to cultivate to stay strong, healthy, and happy.
Let’s WIN THE DAY with David Stewart!
