Gerontologist Dr. Kerry Is on a Mission to Change How Women Age

Dr. Kerry has been a Gerontologist and Professor of Geriatric Medicine for 30 years. She had a front-row seat to the aging journeys of thousands of people—patients stooped and miserable in their 60s, and others radiant like her 96-year-old mother, Betty. She’s sparking a global revolution to make older better. Fed up with the fear-driven, anti-aging hysteria, Dr. Kerry is changing how we approach longevity. And she knows even a long life spent in good health doesn’t mean much if you don’t enjoy it! Enter her new book, Joyspan, a practical guide that offers a radical and optimistic approach to longevity. We spoke with Dr. Kerry about the “Club Sandwich Generation,” her lifelong mission as America’s Gerontologist to share how growing older can be an era of expansion, the four keys to increasing your joyspan, how misunderstood people with dementia are, and why we need to change how we communicate with our aging family and friends.

Golden Bachelorette Joan Vassos on Finding Love and Happiness at 62

Joan Vassos is a trailblazer. At 61, she became the first-ever Golden Bachelorette, and at 62, she found love again with her fiancée, Chock Chapple. After losing her beloved husband John to pancreatic cancer in 2021, Joan saw two paths ahead of her. Staying in her comfort zone and living a smaller life, or being bold and forging a new path. She decided to say 'yes' to The Golden Bachelor and transformed her life. Now, she says yes to everything, from appearing on the runway to Jimmy Kimmel Live! In our conversation with Joan, she opens up about being brave and conquering her fears, being the grandparent she needs to be rather than what her kids expect, and how she and Chock balance their relationship and family. She also shared that close girlfriends are her key to wellness!
