Podcasts about Aging in place

Steve Nygren is the founder and CEO of Serenbe, a wellness community created as a model to demonstrate that preserving green space interlaced with agriculture, housing and retail is not only economically viable, but the future of community wellbeing. Nygren, a visionary placemaker—someone who specializes in transforming public spaces into areas that foster community, connection and well-being—has pulled together his expertise in Start in Your Own Backyard: Transforming Where We Live with Radical Common Sense, a blueprint for developing sustainable communities where citizens of all generations can thrive, "and awe is found in everyday moments." He says this requires understanding the following: The unintended consequences of sprawl, and why clustered development supports more green space, more housing and lower costs Why being disconnected from nature and each other is at the root of many environmental, societal and health-related woes Tactics to encourage a local food-based economy (and why that matters) How small yards, front porches, and blueberry bushes at crosswalks lead to strong, supportive neighborhoods The benefits of aging in place, and how to nurture connections between uncaged elders and free-range kids Nygren says that for many Americans, life is no longer working. We are increasingly sick, stressed, anxious, and unhappy. Many feel left behind by the economy, disillusioned by once-respected institutions, and helpless in the face of environmental decline. Nygren argues that much of this can be traced to where—and how—we live, and that by rethinking and reinvesting in our own communities, we can rediscover the joy of connected, meaningful lives for ourselves and future generations. Nygren's work has earned him the Global Wellness Institute's Leader in Innovation Award and Southface's Argon Award as well as recognition from the Urban Land Institute and the Atlanta Regional Commission. He was also named Georgia Trend's 2019 Most Respected Business Leader and the MLK Jr. Beloved Community Environmental Justice Award in 2025. Nygren currently serves on multiple local and national boards dealing with children, agriculture and environmental issues, including The Ray C. Anderson Foundation, Children & Nature Network, Chattahoochee Now and The Biophilic Institute. He is also a partner at Nygren Placemaking consulting and started his career as a serial hospitality entrepreneur, having founded the 34-restaurant group, Peasant Restaurants.  A People & Nature Member-led Forum program.

He started his career in hospitality, having founded the 34-restaurant group, Peasant Restaurants, serving guests from the 1970s until the mid ‘90s. Concerned by trends of poor human health and a degraded environment, Steve Nygren was on a treadmill trying to effect change but going nowhere. He surrendered to hopelessness and retreated to the countryside on the edge of Atlanta to raise his family. After seven years of retirement while walking the trails, he realized the tentacles of dysfunction could destroy his rural paradise. Rather than retreat further, he launched an effort to save his own backyard expanding the effort to the surrounding 40,000 acres that is now a living laboratory for change offering solutions and hope to communities around the world who are curious about a better future. Steve and Serenbe have been featured in The New York Times, Fast Company, Forbes, Dwell, and Southern Living as a new model for community development. Start in Your Own Backyard Visionary placemaker Steve Nygren chronicles the rise of Serenbe, a pioneering model of biophilic living outside Atlanta, and charts a path for others wishing to challenge the status quo, embrace optimism, and reinvent their communities…and themselves.   For many Americans, life is no longer working.

In this episode of Women of Color Rise, I speak with Gloria Lee—Social Entrepreneur, Lecturer at UC Berkeley and Stanford, and visionary behind a new venture focused on helping elders thrive while aging in place. A seasoned educator and nonprofit leader, Gloria's career includes Founder, CEO of Educate78, President and COO of New Schools Venture Fund, and Area Superintendent and COO of Aspire Public Schools.   Gloria didn't just dream about traveling the world with her husband and two sons—she made it happen. In our conversation, she shares how she turned this bold vision into reality. Leverage career transitions: When her nonprofit reached a natural inflection point, Gloria chose not to leap into her next role right away. Instead, she seized the moment to make their family travel dream a reality. Make it financially possible: Renting out their Bay Area home and choosing more affordable destinations meant their year abroad cost less than staying home. Mindful spending made the dream sustainable. Think about the long-term impact: Rather than focusing on reasons not to go, Gloria envisioned how the experience could strengthen their family—and it did. They returned with deeper bonds and shared memories that will last a lifetime. Support your children's growth: Gloria's introverted sons embraced “worldschooling” instead of traditional homeschooling. They returned with more gratitude, broader perspectives, and even a newfound passion for environmental conservation.   Gloria's story is a reminder that we can make space for both impact in our work and dreams that feed our souls. Sometimes, the bravest career move is to step away and explore the world—with the people you love most.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://analizawolf.com/episode-113-take-a-yearlong-sabbatical-with-an-around-the-world-family-trip-with-gloria-lee

In this episode of Remodelers on the Rise, Kyle sits down with Chris Moore of Senior Remodeling Experts to unpack why aging in place can be the golden goose for remodelers. Chris breaks down the three segments of the market (traumatic change, progressive change, and no urgent needs) and shows how to weave smart, subtle upgrades into standard projects: three-foot doors, curbless showers, blocking for future grab bars, stacked closets for a future elevator, removable cabinet fronts, and ceiling-lift framing. They talk about messaging that avoids stigma, why most homes are “Peter Pan" housing, and how aging in place is a team sport.

What if our High Holiday rituals are secretly about confronting aging? Aging Gracefully: Rethinking Our Approach to the Elderly As we approach Yom Kippur, a time of reflection and renewal, it's fitting to explore a topic that touches us all: aging. In this episode of Madlik, we delve into the often-overlooked issue of how our society treats and cares for the elderly. With insights from our special guest, Yossi Heymann, director of JDC Eshel and the visionary behind Muni100, we uncover surprising perspectives on aging in Jewish tradition and modern Israel. Key Takeaways Ancient Assumptions: Did Jewish society assume the elderly would be cared for in ways we've forgotten? Hidden Strength: Moses at 120 - a paradox of frailty and vigor that challenges our perceptions of aging. Modern Solutions: Discover how Israeli municipalities are redesigning cities to promote "optimal aging" for centenarians. Timestamps [00:00:00] Geoffrey opens: Bible's silence on elderly as vulnerable; Moses at 120—weakness or hidden strength? [00:01:00] High Holidays as communal ritual for aging; guest Yossi Hyman introduced. [00:02:37] Yossi's background: IDF career → JDC Eshel → Muni 100 mission on optimal aging. [00:05:57] Geoffrey on Moses' mobility, Rashi's interpretations, bias against infirmity. [00:08:27] Adam: Torah rarely shows sickness; pre-modern view of aging and illness. [00:12:08] Yossi explains Muni 100's 3 indicators: mobility, walking, participation. [00:18:33] Social needs of elderly: synagogue, camaraderie, public spaces. [00:23:15] Honoring elderly vs. sages; wisdom and age in Jewish tradition. [00:26:27] Yossi: Israel's family culture, aging in place, survey of 12,000 adults. [00:33:27] Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur as communal confrontation with aging; closing reflections and blessings.

Housing affects every aspect of our lives, yet few of us truly understand the complex systems that determine where and how we live. In this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Andrew Carswell, co-editor of "Introduction to Housing, Third Edition," we explore the fascinating evolution of housing markets and what the future might hold.Carswell reveals how the timing of each edition coincided with pivotal moments in housing history—from the mid-2000s housing bubble to the uneven recovery period following the Great Recession, and now the pandemic era that fundamentally changed our relationship with home spaces. Looking toward the future, several trends emerge: universal design principles for aging in place, accessory dwelling units for multigenerational living, and valuable lessons from international housing models where smaller spaces coexist with high quality of life. Perhaps most provocatively, Carswell suggests that declining global birth rates may soon have countries competing for immigrants rather than restricting them, as both new households and skilled construction labor become increasingly precious resources.Show Notes:Further Reading: Mine!: The hidden rules of home ownership control our lives by Michael A.

Keys to the Future: Navigating Today's Housing Market Together In this Keep It Simple Podcast episode, host Joey Badinger joins advisors Adam Morse and Tommy Williams at AssetBuilder's Plano HQ to unpack what's really going on in today's housing market—and how families can work together to help Gen Z and Millennials become homeowners. They trace the arc from early 20th-century mortgages to post-WWII suburbia, the 1970s rate shock, 2000s subprime bubble, post-COVID surge, and today's challenging mix of higher rates, compressed affordability, insurance spikes, student debt, and constrained supply. What You'll Learn Housing history in a hurry: From 5-year loans and big down payments to the 30-year mortgage, GI Bill suburbs, the 1970s rate peak, the subprime crisis, and COVID-era price jumps. Why affordability is strained now: Home-price-to-income ratios, higher mortgage rates vs. locked-in low-rate owners, insurance costs, and student debt. Supply vs. demand realities: Aging-in-place, building restrictions, private investors in starter homes, and why listings can rise even as affordability falls. Programs that help first-time buyers: Where to look for down-payment assistance, reduced-rate programs (e.g., HomeReady, Home Possible), and local buyer education courses. Family strategies that work: How grandparents/parents can gift earlier, reframe big-ticket events (e.g., weddings) vs. down payments, and coach smart savings habits. Episode Highlights Rates matter—but so does the price base. A 6–7% mortgage is tough; the bigger problem is prices outpacing wages. Locked-in effect: Owners with 2–3% mortgages aren't moving—tightening the starter-home pipeline. Costs beyond the mortgage: Insurance premiums and maintenance have significantly outpaced wages. Education pays: City/county first-time buyer classes can prevent costly surprises (inspections, foundation/piping, etc.). Timing gifts can change trajectories: Front-loading support (within a plan) can beat waiting for inheritances.

Part 2: Beyond Lesson Plans: Balancing Delays & Highlighting Progress Teaching today means far more than covering math problems and reading lists. It's managing the ripple effects of the pandemic, lingering academic delays, and the daily pressures kids bring with them. Alongside the frustrations are signs of progress, as schools adapt with new resources and evolving approaches. In part two of this story, we cover how teachers are finding the silver lining in these challenges and what are some key focuses heading into this school year. The Hidden Housing Crisis For America's Seniors For millions of older Americans, the dream of aging in place is colliding with the reality of inaccessible and unaffordable housing. Retrofitting homes is often out of reach financially, downsizing isn't the easy fix it appears to be, and without these changes, independence and safety become harder to hold onto in later life. We cover this quiet crisis and what resources are available to take proactive steps early on. Viewpoints Explained: Why Are So Few Women In This Industry?

It's a block away from your, where you live.”   “How do we create a more sustainable lifestyle for people looking at the data. People losing 15 days of their lives commuting just didn't make any sense to us.”   “We can create that data layer so that people can actually make decisions based on data and understanding those preferences and how people are using space.”   “A lot of office space today is designed for productivity and it's shifting to collaboration. Coworking spaces are designed for that too, but also relationships. I think the evolution is we are all going to be craving relationships. It's not the collaboration that you're going for. You're going for the relationships.”   “We're working with landlords to figure out how you can create those overflow spaces and, from a corporate standpoint, be able to not build for the peak, but build for the average and then have the resources, the unlocking of the network, to handle the overflow.”

The Caregiver's Journal hosted by Lance A. Slatton with Cindy (PT) & Christina (ST) Hardin-Weiss.   The Caregiver's Journal is the show where we are sharing the caregiving experiences, stories, and wisdom of family caregivers.   Chapter 15 - "Caregiving Love":   About Mary Whitehead:   Mark & I have been partners in life since our first date, a Heart concert, in 1978 followed by our marriage in 1979. Together we raised two children, and along the way we helped care and provide for parents & grandparents throughout their illnesses and aging in place or in senior living centers. I call myself a care partner vs. caregiver because Mark does not need my assistance for everyday tasks. We both use our strengths that complement each other on this path with Parkinson's and several other chronic illnesses he lives with.   My late mother was my inspiration. In my mid-teens I watched her, over the course of two years, lovingly care for my dying father (lung cancer). I could not have had a better, in-home example of someone who did everything, including care for him, with love. I am married to the most wonderful man who insisted that my mom live with us for what totaled the last 12 years of her life so that she could have a comfortable life with no expenses and be cared for by us after having a massive heart attack two years before she passed away.   When Mark was 47, as we became empty nesters and were poised to live out some dreams that were not feasible during our first 2+ decades together, a diagnosis of young onset Parkinson's Disease brought our hopes, plans, and his career to a screeching halt. But it couldn't completely stop this incredible human being, artist, musician/composer, man of many hobbies and a higher math maniac. I like to tease him about trying to share multi-page equations with me for discussion. Side note: he even took an online math course through MIT and I insisted that he buy one of their hoodies to wear proudly. There is so much to Mark that we could never cover in one conversation but rather than dwell on the PD, he prefers to pursue and concentrate on what he CAN do.   We cultivate humor and wit in our relationship. That's where “Tenacious M” - my care partner/gansta moniker comes from. I combine it with my Cornermam enthusiasm to encourage Mark's boxing workouts (excellent for PD) and – like a beagle in a brush pile - I pursue every challenge face head on, whether it's an insurance or pharmacy snafu, etc. Together, we face every aspect of living with PD. And we are both are dedicated PD research participants at Washington Univ., St. Louis, MO, also the location of Mark's neuro, Dr. Joel Perlmutter (definitely the top doc). I, along with two of our friends are in the non-PD control group. We all have pledged to donate our brains at the end of our lives for PD research.   In 2013, inspired by a Parkinsons Foundation resource kit, we created a PD Awareness & Research fundraising blitz, raising nearly $3k for Dr. P's research. Friends, family & my coworkers held Pancakes for PD, Dine-out nights, a proclamation by our city mayor, and, among many other activities, we raffled a beautiful quilt that Mark & I designed, and I did the hand-embroidery.   Like the motto in our Parkinson's & Dystonia private FaceBook group, we will never give up.   And I'd like to credit the group's founder/lead admin, Erika, for creating a safe and supporting space for people with PD and the caregivers & care partners.

Join host Nancy Griffin on the Glowing Older podcast as sheinterviews Tara Ballman, Executive Director of the National Aging in Place Council. Discover Tara's journey from the music industry to becoming a leading advocate for aging in place, and learn about the innovative solutions and resources available to support older adults in living independently and comfortably wherever they call home. About TaraTara Ballman is a nationally recognized aging-in-place expert who is passionate about connecting and supporting professionals serving older adults. She is an author of three books on financial retirement issues, two books on aging in place issues, and conference speaker addressing aging-in place topics. Tara currently serves as the Executive Director of the National Aging in Place Council and the Aging-in-Place Business Development Manager at Longbridge Financial.For years, Tara and her family struggled through theevolving stages of her father's declining health. Unexpected illnesses, unforeseen situations, and a fear of the future was their reality, with so many questions and nowhere to turn. After her father passed, she had a desire to help other families navigate through the stages of aging and proactively plan for future needs, regardless of what life throws at them.Key TakeawaysThe National Aging in Place Council (NAIPC) is focused on education, collaboration and advocacy. The nonprofit trade association provides support and resources for the five pillars of aging: housing, healthcare, finance, transportation, and social engagement.The CDC defines aging in place as the ability to live safely, independently, and comfortably in one's own home and community, regardless of age, income, or ability. NAIPC expands the definition to “home is where you lay your head,” which includes senior living communities and memory care. Seventy percent of Americans are going to need long-term care but do not have a plan in place. Proactive planning provides a vast number of options where in crisis situations options are limited. Advances in age-tech allow older adults to stay safe in their homes longer and provide peace of mind for adult children. Remote sensors detect changes in movement patterns or a fall, smart appliances make activities of daily living safer. Wearables and even newfangled toilets can read vitals like heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels.

The phrase "I'm not ready yet" is a common refrain in elder care, as Steve Gurney, founder of the Positive Aging Community, shared in a 2025 webinar. Heard daily for 35 years, it reflects hesitation to plan for aging, from housing to legal prep. A community-driven discussion, sparked by surveys and a concise PowerPoint, unpacked this sentiment's roots, risks, and solutions.What It MeansGurney's slides listed key triggers: aversion to age-segregated living, affordability fears, emotional downsizing burdens, resistance to strangers in the home, and denial of health decline. Participants added depth via chat: Pam said, “We don't see ourselves as old. I'm frozen at age 53.” Dixie noted, “Folks aren't ready to face mortality.” These reflect self-perception and fear, often tied to ageism—prejudice against one's future self.Why We HesitateEmotional attachment to homes, financial uncertainty, and independence fears drive delays. Gurney highlighted longevity concerns: with people living past 90, costs loom large. Health denial—“I'm fine now”—blocks planning for scenarios like dementia. Attendees like Wally feared becoming a burden, while Joe said it's easier to imagine death than incapacitation.Risks of DelayProcrastination limits options, as Gurney's slide warned. Health crises or emergencies force rushed choices, reducing control. Early planning ensures choice in living arrangements and access to benefits like social programs or peace of mind. Phyllis shared her mother's 19-year dementia journey, showing aging in place is possible but tough without prep.Helping OthersTo counter “I'm not ready yet,” Gurney advised empathy: “I get it—I don't want to leave my home either.” Encourage open talks about fears, share stories of regretful delays, and suggest gradual steps like adult daycare “test drives.” Legal prep—wills, trusts, advance directives, HIPAA forms—was urged by attendees like Florence.Moving Forward“I'm not ready yet” is human but surmountable. The webinar's breakout rooms fostered candid chats, reinforcing community as key. Planning now—whether for housing, care, or documents—offers control and dignity. As Gurney's platform, positiveaging.com, provides resources, the message is clear: readiness shapes a purposeful future.
