Wendy Green, host of the Boomer Banter Podcast, joins Uncle Marv to discuss aging well and finding purpose in later years. Wendy's journey began unexpectedly during the COVID-19 pandemic when, after a career in computer science, customer support, training, and life coaching, she sought to help others in her age group navigate job loss and find new meaning. What started as a Facebook Live show evolved into a podcast focused on inspiring and supporting boomers.
Wendy emphasizes the importance of community and the four key areas for aging well: financial literacy, relationships, mental and physical health, and purpose. She shares insights from her podcast, including surprising discoveries about family estrangement, the challenges of hearing loss, and the power of physical activity in overcoming depression. Wendy and Marv discuss the cultural nuances of aging in America, the impact of ageism, and the importance of maintaining a sense of purpose and engagement throughout life.
