EP 6 Reframing the Stories We Tell Ourselves About Aging

If you've ever found yourself boxed in by societal views on aging, or perhaps tangled in your own beliefs about what you can or cannot do as you age, this episode will inspire you to break free from those mental shackles.

Our guest, Don Phin, age 67, teaches us three important strategies to reframe our stories around aging: a really cool mindset concept called 'in the making;' a process for redefining success after 60; and how to plan for the future without sacrificing the present.

Don's wisdom—honed through a career as an attorney fighting for justice, an HR business owner and expert, and an Executive Coach empowering CEOs—is filled with advice on how to approach work, plan for an antifragile aging experience, and navigate life transitions with grace and strength.

You’ll especially love hearing Don’s wild stories from his late teens and early 20s – including his time working at Studio 54 and on a tuna boat!

Don't miss this chance to redefine success, leverage your emotional energy, and design a retirement story filled with purpose, community, and ongoing growth.
