Most people dread birthdays or quietly tolerate them. In this episode, we flip ageing on its head and talk about why getting older is a privilege, how perspective changes with age, and why staying engaged with life is a choice you get to make every year.
In this episode we cover:
- Why birthdays are worth celebrating properly, every single year
- The best part of ageing: caring less what people think and living more authentically
- How to gamify the boring stuff so life feels more fun and alive
- Why movement, play, and new experiences keep your world expanding
- How to stop photocopying the same year over and over
Key insights:
- Ageing is not the problem. Disengaging from life is.
- Fun is not indulgent. It is preventative.
- You do not need a dramatic life overhaul. One intentional choice changes the whole year.
Mentioned in this episode:
- Gamifying everyday life
- Preloading the year with fun, trips, and things to look forward to
- Trying new movement each quarter
- The Blue Zones idea of staying active through daily life
- Building energy through small habits like water, walking, and community
