LH121 — Be Kind, Age Well Part 2

Karel and Paige welcome back MJ Shaar for the second half of our conversation about aging well. We conclude this two part episode with MJ Shaar discussing the key role that kindness plays in helping us age well. She explains how simple acts of kindness can boost mood, improve relationships, and contribute to overall health and well-being. MJ provides practical ways to incorporate kindness into daily life and emphasizes the importance of making kindness a choice rather than a goal. She also highlights the impact kindness has on self-perception and the development of better habits. MJ encourages us all to choose a purposeful retirement that includes being kind to maintain a sense of purpose and meaning in life. From elevating mood to nurturing relationships, kindness emerges as a cornerstone for fostering a vibrant and fulfilling life in later years and the key component for aging well.
