Episode 10 - Sara Orem - Life Writing as Re-discovery

from ElderWare: Story Work and Aging in the mid-21st Century · host Joe Lambert

Sara Orem has been practicing an answer in community for a long while. She came to teaching through the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute—OLLI for the initiated—after a late-life doctorate just shy of sixty, proof that curiosity has no mandatory retirement age.Sara’s path wanders through gratitude, mindfulness, and joy—not as slogans, but as steady practices, the kind you take up with neighbors and keep returning to when the world tilts. Her classes draw from the Greater Good Science Center and the mindful provocations of Ellen Langer in dialogue with Buddhist perspectives. Listen in as we talk about life writing and writing through the fade.
