#16 - Kirsten Mitchell - Turning 100 (DANISH BONUS)

Dec 25, 2023
01:28:03

How can we live to 100+ years of age with excellent well-being? This is the pondering of most individuals in this audience. Interestingly, the majority of those who have reached such an impressive age never actively pursued longevity. However, they share other common traits.

Kirsten, one of Denmark's oldest women, provides insightful answers to these inquiries. To our amazement, she never exercised, never paid attention to her diet, and never made a deliberate effort to extend her life. Yet, at the age of 100, she stands before us in remarkable mental and physical condition, poised for the next chapter of her life.

This version is in Danish as Kirsten doesn't speak English. If the audience's response mirrors our enthusiasm, we will consider dubbing the entire conversation and releasing an English version.
