The Art and Science of Brain Thriving at Every Age

Thrive in the Aging Process Using Music as a Vibrant Modality

Music can do more than lift our spirits. It can also support brain health, stimulate neural connections, and help keep our bodies moving as we age. Discover how music, combined with simple brain and body movements, can support memory, coordination, and vitality. With interactive demonstrations and audience participation, you’ll leave with fun, practical ways to keep your brain and body engaged throughout life.

Thriving Together: The Power of Social Connectedness

Social connection plays an important role in how we live, age, and thrive. It’s about more than how many people we know; it’s the quality of our relationships, sense of belonging, and involvement in our community. Explore how meaningful connections support health and well-being, what brings people together or creates barriers, and how stronger relationships can help individuals and communities thrive as we age.

Thriving Isn’t About Age: It’s About Living

Aging changes our bodies, relationships, and plans, but not our ability to thrive. Join this gerontologist and national television co-host for a heartfelt, humorous look at living fully at every age. Through practical insights and relatable stories, discover how to find new purpose, navigate life’s challenges, and embrace aging with dignity, connection, and the belief that growing older doesn’t mean growing less.
