In this episode of Girlish Gurus, Joy and Susan are talking about ageism. The UN has designated 2021-2030 as the Decade of Healthy Aging and we discuss their efforts in collaboration with the World Health Organization around this topic. We delve into where we see ageism, how to combat it, and the positive things about getting older. “And ladies, don’t let anybody tell you you are ever past your prime. Never give up.” - Michelle Yeoh (in her Oscar acceptance speech) In this episode, we cover several key topics including: What exactly is ageism and what are its costs globally? Where and how ageism occurs most often. Strategies and solutions to combat and reduce ageism. Good news on positive trends toward aging.
