How do we remind others—and ourselves—that we may be older, but we still matter?

Growing Older Together is a podcast for older adults, centered on the stories, memories, and changes that shape how we see ourselves over time. Most episodes are under 15 minutes and explore themes like identity, fear, aging, and personal growth.

I started this podcast because society often treats aging like the end of the story—like we no longer count. And sometimes, we start to believe it. But our stories still matter, and they deserve to be heard.

Season One, Echoes of the Past, Visions of Tomorrow, includes 16 episodes about the experiences that stay with us—through uncertainty, silence, resilience, forgiveness, and how our relationships evolve over time.

Season Two, Silent Struggles: Finding Strength in Our Fears, centers on fear—how it shows up in everyday life, keeps us quiet, and what it means to speak about it. This season also introduced Whispers of Regret: Women Finding Peace in Silence, a recurring interview series where women share stories they’ve carried for years.

Episode 9 was published on December 12, 2024. After that, I stepped away from recording to care for my mom, who passed away on March 17, 2025.

I missed preparing, hosting, and recording the podcast, but my mind and energy were with my mom. Thank you for staying connected and for your patience. I’m ready to return with Episode 10: Invisible With Age: Fighting Ageism. As I find my rhythm again, I'll be sharing new episodes every 2 to 3 weeks.

If this speaks to you, I invite you to listen and maybe recognize a piece of your own story in someone else’s.

Let’s keep growing older and wiser together.
