005 - Somewhat Unlikeable - Susan Curtin, The Council on Aging

In today's episode, I sit down with Susan Curtin, Director of the Council on Aging. I first reached out to Susan with absolutely no knowledge of this department - I was mostly somewhat annoyed that the new multigenerational community center seemed heavily driven by offerings for our town's senior community. Cut me some slack, I'm in my "raising kids" phase.  But after talking with Susan, I was blown away by what the Council on Aging offers (with the little money it receives), her benefit to this town, and the wealth of knowledge she offers. I fully believe that growing older is a privilege - but it shouldn't be done alone. We should all be aware and engaged in the Council on Aging to honor the members of our community who helped pave the way for the Norwell we know today. The only way we can gracefully embrace our chaotic future, is to retain the goodness of the old.  So take a listen, enjoy, and go volunteer at the senior center.
