Forget Everything You Thought You Knew About Getting Older with Michael Clinton EP 110

"We get this thing in our heads that because we're a certain age, we can't do this, we can't do that, self-imposed ageism, you know, age appropriate, all of these negative images that come to us from the media and so forth. Release yourself from the self-imposed ageism that we all get cloaked with."   – Michael Clinton, Founder and CEO of ROAR Forward  In this episode of AGE BETTER WITH BARBARA HANNAH GRUFFERMAN podcast, Barbara sits down with Michael Clinton, a former top executive at Hearst Publishing who made a major midlife pivot to become founder and CEO of ROAR Forward. Michael shares insights from his book, "Roar into the Second Half of Your Life Before It's Too Late," and discusses how his platform helps individuals aged 50+ redefine the second half of life. The conversation covers career pivots, lifelong learning, the huge impact of the aging population on business and society, and the importance of rethinking how you think about aging (people Michael calls “Imagineers”).
