What if aging isn’t the problem—but our beliefs about aging are?

In this episode, we discuss ageism with Dr. Claudia Drossel. Together, we explore how aging is often misunderstood as decline, when in reality many of the challenges we associate with aging are shaped by cultural bias, environment, and access to support.

This conversation reframes aging as a form of diversity, challenges common myths about loneliness, health, and capability, and explores how our environments, relationships, and societal structures influence quality of life across the lifespan.

We also examine how subtle forms of ageism show up in everyday language, healthcare, and social systems—and what we can do to change them.
