Rewriting How We Think About Aging With Dr. Corinne Auman

Most of what we’ve been taught about aging is wrong—and it’s quietly shaping how we live, work, and show up for each other. With gerontologist Dr. Corinne Auman, we swap the “over the hill” narrative for something more honest and far more hopeful: Keenagers—older adults who stay keen, engaged, and purposeful. We trace Corinne’s path from rural North Carolina to the classroom and into real-world care management, where she sees 70-year-olds advocating for their 90-year-old parents and launching new ventures. We unpack why language matters—how a single word can open space for dignity—and we get practical about what truly drives a great later life. Lifestyle accounts for the majority of our aging experience, which means movement, social ties, learning, and purpose are non-negotiable. We connect the dots to Blue Zones and to cultures like Japan, where elders remain woven into daily life, and we talk candidly about the mental toll of retirement when purpose disappears. This conversation is equal parts mindset shift and field guide. You’ll learn how to spot ageism in everyday moments, replace limiting scripts with stronger ones, and design a plan that goes beyond money: legal basics, weekly routines, intellectual spark, and community anchors. Corinne shares simple practices for mental health and why even with illness, adaptive joy—like Parkinson’s dance classes—keeps agency alive. If you’ve ever said “I’m too old for that,” consider this your invitation to rewrite the line.
