About this listen
You know your chronological age — just count the candles on your last birthday cake. But is that how old you actually feel?
In this episode of Life Happens*, hosts Michelle R Williams and Nick Hirst explore the fascinating psychology of subjective age — the age we perceive ourselves to be.
Originally, the concept of mental age was used to measure intellectual development. But researchers are increasingly interested in subjective age and how it connects to physical health, mindset, social engagement, and even longevity.
Michelle and Nick — representing two different generations — compare their own subjective age test results, and the answers might surprise you.
🎧 Listen now as they discuss ageing, identity, and how society shapes the way we think about getting older.
Before you light the candles on your next birthday cake… you might want to find out how old you really feel.
