This chapter explores five essential pillars for fulfilling aging: community, novelty, purpose, health, and a positive view of aging. It emphasizes how engaging in outdoor adventures can meet these needs, highlighting personal stories of individuals discovering new activities and embracing risks later in life. The discussion encourages redefining adventure to include simple pleasures and interactions that contribute to a richer, more rewarding experience as one ages.
Caroline Paul, a bestselling author, ex-firefighter, and adventurer, is here with her latest book “Tough Broad,” which explores how nature redefines aging.
This conversation explores the insidious cultural messaging about aging, especially for women, and how nature supports the five pillars of healthy longevity: community, novelty, purpose, health, and a positive mindset about aging itself.
Caroline shares exhilarating stories of women defying expectations—from septuagenarian boogie boarders to a BASE-jumping grandmother—and recounts her wing-walking experience, demonstrating the transformative power of awe in later life.
This exchange is a call to adventure and awe to anyone interested in embracing age with wonder and purpose. Enjoy!
