Do you notice your skin becoming drier, more sensitive, or slower to recover than it used to? Maybe your favorite moisturizer no longer seems to do the trick, or products you’ve used for years suddenly sting. If you’ve spent decades gardening, hiking, skiing, golfing, or simply enjoying time outdoors, your skin has been working overtime for years. While we often blame these changes on aging alone…

Most of us have a few pieces of clothing in our closets that don’t really belong to our current life. Is this something you can relate to? The jeans we swear we will fit into again. Guilty! The dress we bought for a life that never quite happened. Guilty as well. The blazer from a former career. Yup. The “good outfit” we are saving for an occasion that has not arrived in 10 years. Honestly, I can’t fit into it anymore anyway…

I know. It sounds a little unconventional. But yes – I freeze my lemons whole. And I use every single part of them. I have a confession to make. For years, all I knew was to zest a little, cut the lemon in half, squeeze out the juice, and toss the rest into the garburator without a second thought. Half the lemon – gone. Every time…

For a long time, I believed healthy eating meant compromise. Less flavor. Smaller portions. Skipping the foods I loved. If dinner was delicious, surely I’d done something wrong. I don’t know exactly when I started believing that. Maybe it was years of magazine headlines. Maybe decades of hearing foods labeled “good” and “bad.” Whatever the reason, I stopped trusting my own plate…

Over the years, I’ve supported hundreds of people to exercise safely and successfully at home. I’ve seen the most common mistakes and helped them get past these and set themselves up for success with home exercise…

I’ve coached daters for more than 20 years, and there is one thing I know. Younger men, and plenty of older ones too, are actively seeking out women over 60. It’s a real, growing part of the dating world. If you’re wondering about this, I am here with an unpopular perspective: You have the upper hand more often than you think, and I’ve watched it play out in real life…

I’ve had a front-row seat to the dating patterns of Baby Boomers for more than 30 years. I’ve watched singles navigate classified ads, personal ads, matchmakers, online dating, dating apps, and everything in between. The technology has evolved. Human nature? Not nearly as much…

Traveling the world on a retirement budget may sound unrealistic for some. Hotel prices and long-stay accommodations are often high and seem to be constantly rising. and not to mention single supplements if you’re traveling alone. Have you ever heard of house- and/or pet-sitting? Did you know that house-sitting while you travel the world on a retirement budget can make extended travel far more affordable?

Athens, the birthplace of Western civilization. If it’s on your bucket list, Athens in the springtime is wonderful! My husband and I always try to hit tourist “hot spots” in the shoulder seasons, and that strategy really paid off here. For good reason, this place is on many bucket lists. It was definitely on ours. Shoulder seasons in Greece are April and May, and again in September and October…

An African safari remains on many tourists’ wish lists because of its unmatched wildlife encounters, vast, untamed landscapes, and the opportunity for a deep sense of adventure. For senior vacationers, it’s an easy, enjoyable travel experience that requires almost no physical effort…

August 2006: We just came off the 10-hour flight and transferred to our 3* hotel in Cancun. It was hot, it was new, it was exciting. As we walked through the hotel lobby, we were greeted with smiles as the workers could see the excitement exuding from our Cheshire-like grins. We were tired, but the adrenaline of being in a new place overcame the fact that we had very little sleep on the plane…

Forty years ago, in the early years of my career as a funeral director – and after doing a little modeling on the side to make extra money — I accepted an offer to pose for Playboy. I was told my career would be over. The pronouncements weren’t quiet or subtle. They were direct. Colleagues and friends alike predicted that my life in funeral service would come to a screeching halt…

When I was growing up, retirement looked quite different. My parents’ generation expected to stop working in their mid-60s, collect a pension/Social Security and enjoy the years they had earned. Today, almost one fifth of Americans over the age of 65 are still working, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the majority of which work because they have no choice…

A common question when people are nearing retirement or in retirement is, “How much of my money should be in ____?” They may be referring to stocks, bonds, or cash.

The money is handled. You met with the advisor, ran the numbers, and the date is coming into view. You did the responsible thing. The question that’s harder to answer, the one that comes up when someone asks what you’ll do with all that time in retirement, is who you’re going to be once the title is gone…

Are we living in the Age of Loneliness? In a 2023 81-page report from the Office of the Surgeon General, titled “Our Epidemic of Loneliness and Isolation,” the United States Surgeon General stated, “…we are now finding that one in two adults report measurable levels of loneliness.”

Remember when teachers told you reading was good for you? They were right. And now reading is even associated with living longer. Researchers at the Yale University School of Public Health have discovered that book…

I have a question for the younger generations: When did leaving the house become impossible without a beverage companion? I’m not talking about a cup of coffee on the way to work. I understand that. I’m a coffee person myself. I’m talking about the phenomenon of the ever-present drink – the giant insulated tumbler, the designer water bottle…
