Happy Talks

Join us this Saturday for a mini session on how to protect your elders from scams. #ConnectandProtect #HappyTalks #DIW2024

Today is the International Day of Older Persons. 👵🏻 👴🏽 This year’s theme, ‘Ageing with Dignity: The Importance of Strengthening Care and Support Systems for Older Persons Worldwide’ encourages the governments, policy makers and social services across the world for a concerted and sustained action to address the physical, social, psychological and health needs of older persons. Did you really read that? "A concerted and sustained action to address the physical, social, psychological and health needs of older persons." While we lobby for continued rights and freedoms, it is imperative that we continue to promote healthy living conditions, access to healthcare options, the right for older persons to make decisions about their care, and more efforts to protect our elders from fraud. Who's with us?!?! Let's continue to celebrate our elders and their contributions. 🥳 #internationaldayofolderpersons #care #diginity #eldercare

Nonagenarians and centenarians are vessels of life experience. Learning and listening to those that have lived 90+ years of life gives a different perspective. Their advice also reflects how the simple things make such a difference. Check out this 102-year-old fitness resort and spa business owner's thoughts on dreaming, regrets, mindfulness and friendship. Do you think you'll still be working if you live a life over 90 years of age???

Yesterday we met Lamar. 🤝 He is a Chaplain that recently turned 89. Him and his late wife were married 65 years!! We sat together and he shared so many beautiful stories about him and his wife, his two children, how he still ministers and his thoughts on what creates a long loving marriage. Cheers to the beautiful humans like Lamar that we get to meet and engage with. It is always an honor. 💛 #spreadlove #listen #stories #ourelders #happytalks #community #olderadults #silentgeneration
