What does getting older have in store for you? What are the secrets to living a long beautiful life? Being younger than the majority of my patients it felt silly to hand out advice on aging, so I went on a mission to ask my podcast listeners what they or someone they knew were up to when it came to defying aging. When Marjorie Burn’s story ended up in my inbox I knew she and I had to chat. Marjorie is an author, retired professor and lover of words. She sat down with me to talk about her book, The New Cadets and what it’s like to get older. In this episode of The Health Fix Podcast Marjorie and I talk about life, literature, connecting to others and her love of exploring, especially with her dog.
