About this listen

 becoming bOLDER is a meaningful conversation meant to share lived journeys. At WCBR, we believe older adults or elders have talents and wisdom to share. We also believe that we are all more than our past – acknowledging present interests, the future, and possible selves is important because aging brings new opportunities and capacities for growth, contribution, and self-expression. This podcast illustrates that older adults are accomplished and are involved in and a vital part of their community. The path to elderhood will look and feel different for everyone. It may be living life with intention, gerotranscendence, acting as a guide for those who come behind, handing down knowledge, and/or nurturing well-being among communities. Our guests demonstrate that there is no right or wrong way to age. We invite you to listen in. Together, we are becoming bOLDER.Copyright 2023 All rights reserved. Social Sciences
