Exploring a Life of Service and Spirit

In this heartwarming and inspiring episode, Susan Ryan welcomes 99-year-old Peg McLaughlin and her daughter Marguerite for a moving conversation about Peg's extraordinary life. A lifelong nurse, mother of five, and dedicated community volunteer, Peg shares stories from her upbringing in Providence, R.I., her career in obstetrics and pediatrics, and decades of service to others—whether through scouting, church ministries, or her local food bank. Now living in assisted living after having given up driving at age 98, Peg reflects on adjusting to a new chapter of life, maintaining her faith and independence, and finding purpose through connection, compassion, and resilience. Margie offers loving insights into her mother's unwavering generosity and quiet impact on those around her. Some of Peg's words of wisdom: • Service doesn't end with age—it evolves. • Maintaining social connection and purpose is key to aging well. • Faith, humor, and a giving heart sustain a life of longevity. Together, their reflections offer a beautiful portrait of aging, humor, and heart.
