Reclaim Your Right to Grow Old with Kathleen O’Brien

You may have heard the voice of today’s guest before … but these days she’s using it to echo a different message, inviting everyone to Reclaim Your Right to Grow Old!<br />Once dubbed “the most heard voice in America” by New York Times, Kathleen O’Brien was the voice of directory assistance throughout the 1980’s and 90’s. If you dialed 411 at any time from a landline, it was her voice you heard. And while technology and times have changed over the decades, with an abundance of education, research and a career portfolio under her belt, at the proud age of 72, Kathleen has a timeless message of wisdom to share as author of her new book, “Reclaim Your Right to Grow Old: How to Immerse Yourself In, Be Curious About, and Celebrate Life’s Most Important Stage.” In her book, Kathleen takes a deep dive into societies misguided attitude towards aging and highlights all of the wonders that lie ahead for those who dare to grow old. <br />Reclaim Your Right to Grow Old is filled with what might seem like surprising advice in today’s seemingly overwhelmingly anti-aging culture. Kathleen offers many messages including why fear can be a great motivator, why she believes we should be proud to reveal our age, her views on the marketing machine behind the beauty and wellness industry and how that is impacting our views on aging as well as respect for older adults and even seeing time and death as your ally. She won’t tell you to age gracefully – but she is all about Aging GreatFULLy and even celebrating your eccentricities! <br />It’s a must-listen power-hour of enlightYOUment you won’t want to miss!
