LOVING LONGEVITY: Jim Flaherty on Aging, Creativity, and Living Life with a 10-Year Plan on Love Is Podcast

from Love Is Podcast - Fun interviews with your favorite celebrities! · host Kim Sorrelle

In this episode, we sit down with Jim Flaherty, an international advertising writer and creative director turned motivational speaker, author, and innkeeper. At 89, Jim is showing the world that aging is an adventure, not a limitation! We talk about his career, the art of writing, the ups and downs of parenting, and his unique approach to aging gracefully. Jim’s fifth book, LOVING LONGEVITY: I'm 89 and have a ten-year plan, embodies his belief that you are only as old as you feel. Tune in for a lighthearted yet deeply inspiring conversation about making "work more fun than fun" and living with purpose at every age. #LovingLongevity #AgingWithGrace #CreativeLife #JimFlaherty #Inspiration #Longevity #wwld #LoveIs #KimSorrelle ABOUT HIS BOOK AND IN THE EPISODE: Unlike its predecessor, DEAR OLD FRIENDS, I find myself, (an optimistic 87-year-old) concerned, and slightly annoyed with friends who have decided they don’t exist anymore. Huh? Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live. Living is a gift—an opportunity to contribute, produce and share. Don’t worry, EMBRACE YOUR AGE isn’t a hardline lecture—it may make you smile now and then, but it will also illuminate your self-doubts and insecurities with some direct calls to action. This isn’t just another one of those smile and the whole world smiles with you. Every chapter (and they’re not lengthy or overly wordy) asks a question you should be able to answer. For example: Why do you exist? Do you think you’re old? Are you someone worth looking up to? How are you going to handle it when they die? Ever wonder why you’re still alive? Do you know where your Best Psychoanalyst is? Even if you’re perfect—Living, Giving, Loving—someone you know, and love needs the friendly advice found in EMBRACE YOUR AGE—You can be better than ever. I really believe that friends. Every day is a miracle. I want you to feel that joy every morning, and know that someone will think of you today.
