036 Christine Martel: No Ageism Here. Celebrate Your Silver Years

"The secret of genius is to carry the spirit of the child into old age, which means never losing your enthusiasm. (Aldous Huxley)  I would add "never lose the enthusiasm, the curiosity about the world and the fearlessness of childhood". The message from today's guest is that while we stay youthful and vibrant as we grow older,  we must celebrate ourselves along the journey.    It was delightful to meet my guest, Christina Martel, at a virtual networking event where she and I were both featured speakers on the theme of Living Younger. We share a common interest in combating ageism, and in encouraging our contemporaries to value and celebrate their wisdom accumulated through life experience.  Christina is the Founder of Celebrating Silver, an alliance of women in their prime, reclaiming their  right to be truly seen and heard, without judgement and to contribute to the workforce should they choose to do so. ROARR, the acronym for the Celebrate Silver tag line - Reclaim Older Adult Rights and Respect, says it all.  Contact Christina Martel here:www.martelinsurance.com https://www.facebook.com/ziggymartel/ https://www.linkedin.com/feed/  Contact Dr. Gillian Lockitch here: https://linktr.ee/askdrgill   Email: [email protected] a complimentary Living Younger Discovery Call at https://bit.ly/3LbWvSV Order your copy of Growing Older Living Younger: The Science of Aging Gracefully and the Art of Retiring Comfortably at www.gillianlockitch.com
