All of us @AgeFriendlyOH are loving today's episode of Life Kit from @NPR. Thinking positively about aging is a great use of our extra day and is a great way to #buttonupageism! Thanks to @BeccaLevyPhD we know this can impact how long you live.

My life has been significantly cooler since starting to evaluate my own ageist beliefs. Sometimes I still mess up, so am remaining humble in this journey to #ButtonUpAgeism and recognize Aging: So Cool Everyone is Doing It! @AgeFriendlyOH https://t.co/IDuugYpUxW

Important reflections on the importance of queering the narrative of aging. As @AgeFriendlyOH begins conversations with LGBTQIA+ elders I am curious what do you imagine for yourself?
