The Trump administration moved to dismiss a lawsuit against the state of Idaho seeking to allow abortions in medical emergencies. Idaho is one of 12 states with a near-total abortion ban. The Biden administration sued Idaho arguing that federal law requires doctors to perform an abortion if a patient’s life is at risk. Mary Ziegler of U.C. Davis School of Law, joins Amna Nawaz to discuss. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders
Send us a textWhen our does have trouble conceiving, our minds often tend to go toward infectious causes. But there are non-infectious causes of infertility to consider as well. In this episode, Dr. Fauna Smith, Assistant Professor of Livestock Herd Health and Reproduction at the University of California, Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, discusses in detail the non-infectious causes of infertility. She explains the difference between true hermaphrodites and pseudo-hermaphrodites and explains the genetic reasons behind why breeding polled to polled can lead to sexual abnormalities.Dr. Smith talks about freemartinism and how freemartins could be more common in goats than we think. She also touches on the process of fetus mummification in utero and how retained fetuses, as well as anatomic abnormalities from previous problem kiddings, can also negatively impact fertility.

In this episode, Mark talks with Cynthia Passmore, who is a professor of science education at the University of California, Davis. They talk about the differences between the approach to modeling developed at ASU and UC Davis, which seem to be more and more similar as time goes by. They talk about how all of our understanding in scientific study is based on models, even if we do not specifically hold those up as "models" per se. We use mental models to explain the world around us and to better understand how and why certain interactions happen the way they do. They talk about modeling instruction and the Next Generation Science Standards and how modeling really gets students to do the thinking as scientists and make the connections between what we see and the explanations for what we see. They talk about Cynthia's new book, even get to talk about some of Cynthia's recent research on effective teaching using modeling methods in the high school biology classroom. Guest Cynthia Passmore Cynthia Passmore is currently a Professor specializing in science education in the University of California, Davis School of Education. She did her doctoral work at the University of Wisconsin, Madison and prior to that she was a high school science teacher. Her research focuses on the role of models and modeling in student learning, curriculum design and teacher professional development. She investigates model-based reasoning in a range of contexts and is particularly interested in understanding how the design of learning environments interacts with students' reasoning practices. She has been the principal investigator of several large grants and is the lead on a collaborative curriculum design project that has created a full-year high school biology course. A key practitioner publication is the edited volume: Helping Students Make Sense of the World Using Next Generation Science and Engineering Practices from NSTA Press. Highlights [2:44] Cynthia "I think the inclusion of modeling as a practice in the next generation Science standards has also brought a lot more people to the work of modeling than used to be the case." [3:25] Cynthia "Models are the functional unit of scientific thought." [7:51] Cynthia "The depiction is important. I'm not trying to say it's not, but if all we're doing is asking kids to reproduce representations and depictions of things, then we're losing the modeling practice, in my view."

Wayne Lehrer is an author, coach and teacher who leads a yoga class at the USC Leonard Davis School. He joined us to talk about his book, The Art of Conscious Aging and how to redefine yourself and find fulfillment as you age. Transcript I hear all the time, I used to do yoga, but now my body doesn't like it. Well, find a new yoga class. If you remember how it made you feel, then doing it in a new way, maybe a gentler class, maybe a hot yoga class that's in the dark, that's slow, where you hold the poses and no one's looking at you because you may be self-conscious, maybe that's the answer to it. But not doing it is only going to make your life collapse. And I believe that one of the biggest problems with aging is people's worlds get smaller and smaller. Orli Belman (00:00): From the USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, this is Lessons in Lifespan Health, a podcast about the science and scientists improving how we live and age. I'm Orli Belman, Chief Communications Officer. On today's episode, how teacher and coach Wayne Lehrer found purpose in aging and is working to help others do the same. Lehrer is the author of The Art of Conscious Aging, the Operating Manual for an Extraordinary Third Act. He also leads a weekly yoga class here at the USC Leonard Davis School. Welcome to our podcast, Wayne, and thank you for being here today. Wayne Lehrer (00:39): Oh, thank you for the opportunity. Orli Belman (00:41): I think it would be helpful to start with some definitions. Let's begin with the terms in your book title. What is conscious aging? Wayne Lehrer (00:48): Well, conscious aging is accepting the fact that it happens for everybody. That's the conscious part of it. You know, most of us live most of our lives under the assumption that we're never going to age, certainly, that we're never going to be old or get older. So conscious aging is how we approach the process and the practice of aging. It's just basically becoming mindful of all of the elements that go into the process of aging, whether it's exercise and diet, sleep, or the subtler things like stress, poor relationships, you know, creating value in the world. So conscious aging is showing up for your life in a way that your life creates value for you and others. Orli Belman (01:32): That's a wonderful idea. And what is the third act? Wayne Lehrer (01:36): So historically, you know, what people normally now refer to as the third act is retirement. Historically, you know, the average lifespan in 1900 was 47 years. So, there wasn't really a third act. You know, people were children, they went to work and then they passed away, basically. And around 1950, with the onset of Social Security and Medicare and all of the other elements that increased life expectancy: the fitness revolution, psychological help, retirement funds, a little bit more disposable income available and a less stressful life, people began to live long enough to have a third act. So basically, life in three acts is the first act of childhood–which I say basically goes from zero to 20–is a time of exploring, discovering who you are, gathering information, finding how you fit into your world and the world. And that's also a period of dependency, could be categorized. Wayne Lehrer (02:42): The second act, starting in your twenties, and for most of, us going to our mid-fifties or 60 years, so about 35 or 40 years, the second act is a time of independence. We develop the ego, the separate self, we explore the world as an individual. We acquire, achieve, build, collect, succeed, compete. And during that time we, you know, sort of begin to build the separate self and what is mine, which could be, you know, my profession, my identity, my family, my place in my community. And then what's historically happened is that 55 or 60 people began to retire. They began to get phased out of their jobs. Empty nest happened and all of a sudden, they're left alone. And historically what happened is people went into a period referred to as retirement, which was really a period of on the highest-level seeking comfort and serenity. Wayne Lehrer (03:41): But on the lower levels what it happened to be was security, being less engaged in life, withdrawing, you know, that just started changing. Now that people have a period of time of 30 or 40 years from the time of retirement–if you retire at 55 or 60 with the average life expectancy rising above 90–there's a good chance you're going to have 30, 40, maybe even 50 more years of life. And so it's as long as the period of the second act. And historically that was seen as a time where you just withdrew and you know, kind of went on this long slow decline towards oblivion, you know. And now for the first time, you know, their health is better, they have some money in the bank, some sense of ways of creating new value and transforming themselves, so it's what I call the new third act. And the new third act is a period of time where you look at how you're going to create value, become an elder, give back, build community and collaboration. Also, if you think about it in the theater or in the film historically, you know, the second act is where all the drama happens. The third act is where the hero rises from the ashes, pulls all the diverse parts of themselves together, finds a new level of who they are, and really makes a difference and redeems themself. At least in the better stories. Orli Belman (05:02): And you've advocated for a different word for retirement. What do you call this new third act instead of retirement and how would you describe it? Wayne Lehrer (05:12): Well, the woman who created AARP called it refirement, but I really think it's a time of reinventing ourselves. You know, where we're looking at all of the gifts we have, all of the professions we've participated in, what we're passionate about and what talks to us in the world, what speaks to us that we feel like we may be the answer to, or we may be able to make a contribution in regard to. And so we have to basically, you know, reimagine, recreate, redesign and reinvent who we are and then reboot as that person. So, you know, I think it's a time of reinvention and reimagining. Orli Belman (05:54): These ideas, are they based on your own personal experience? Wayne Lehrer (05:58): Both my own, those of a lot of my friends. Obviously, I'm in a number of communities right now of people that are, you know, my age or entering into their third act or deep into their third act. And when I look around at the people that are happy and that are actually where they feel that they're in the sweetest point in their life, they're actually in the sweet spot, all of those people are people that have made this transition. And I think the transition is the hardest thing because historically also there's been no role models for a healthy third act. So part of it is observation. A lot of reading. There's a lot of good new research out there. You know, that longtime Harvard study that talks about people that have been, you know, where they followed people for I think 75 years and they found that the people that had long-term relationships, the people that found ways to continue to create value in later life. So yeah, and I also think it's indicative of our time period. So it's really an observation of both our time period and those people that are around me and then my own process of moving through this transition. Orli Belman (07:06): And can you talk a little bit about your own process? I know you've had several careers and maybe you could give some advice to people who finished their first career. Is there anything to take away from your example about restarting, investing yourself and even becoming an entrepreneur? Wayne Lehrer (07:22): It's challenging, especially challenging to do something maybe you've never done before. I put myself in a position or feel called to be in a position where I'm having to use skills I never developed before but based upon all of these other things that I'm very passionate about. So, you know, when I was younger, I studied Oriental medicine, I invented medical machinery, I had a whole life as a designer. I designed theme parks, museums, and world's fairs. I was an IMAX and computer graphics filmmaker, have taught yoga and meditation now for 25 years. So, I've had this full life and, and multiple different experiences and what was in common to all of them. And I believe that this is a case for everybody when they start to approach their third act, is that each of us sort of has a core way we meet the world. Wayne Lehrer (08:12): So, for me, my gift was creating immersive, transformative, spiritually uplifting experiences. So whether it's a yoga class or meditation or it's a ride in a theme park. If you take my ride in the theme park, you're going to be swept away. You know, it's not just going to be a thrill ride; you're going to be pulled into another world. So I think one of the things that a lot of people are maybe terrified or feel really challenged about making a transition out of the career they've had is first assessing and acknowledging the skills that they've actually developed and not seeing a single job as they had, as something that wasn't something that brought them a skillset, brought them a new way to know themselves and have something to offer. And then also, and this I think is particularly indicative of the third act, it's very important at this age to look into the world and see what the things are that you respond to. Wayne Lehrer (09:07): So you know, the most obvious examples would be Mother Teresa said, Oh, somebody needs to take care of the lepers in Calcutta. And Jimmy Carter, who may be one of the better examples of somebody who has a way more profound third act than his first or second act went and started Habitat for Humanity or what Clinton did. And these are skill sets that yes, they had all of the diverse pieces for, you know, they could talk to world leaders, they could get in the door, they'd work with health people and that kind of stuff. But it was also them each being entrepreneurial, you know, actually being the spearhead of those things. And I know for me personally, you know, I've written this book and I feel that it's a message that I've been given to share and that really no one is talking about in the way that I am. As a result of that, I have to learn technology, the most dreaded thing that anybody in their seventies can have to do, you know. And I have to practice social media; you know, I'm a really warm and friendly person. I talk to everybody on the street and at Starbucks, but have me post on Facebook and you know, I shiver. You know, so I'm having to learn all these things and, and the thing that's allowing me to do it is my passion for the thing that I'm doing. Orli Belman (10:21): And you've spent some time around our school over the years, and you know that we are focused on healthy aging and there are a number of scientific studies that show measurable benefits of practices like yoga, meditation, gratitude. We have a course on the mind-body connection, and I'm sure none of these positive findings are a surprise to you. How did you come to these practices and what do you see people getting out of them, particularly as they age? Wayne Lehrer (10:49): That's a great question, and I think it's important to say that even in my book, anybody can start conscious aging at the age of 20. So I started doing yoga and meditation in my twenties. Now that, you know, gave me a bit of a head start, but that was my natural inclination. I was not so drawn to a professional career as I was to the life of a seeker, let's say. So as people age though, they need ways to disengage from their story. You know, if you notice a lot of older people, their stories, you know, the story you tell is the life you're living. And if you're telling a story that's 30 or 40 years old and may not even be true anymore and might not have even been true when you started telling it, may have only been from your trauma point of view, then you need all the help you can get to get free of that, if you want to reinvent yourself in your third act. Wayne Lehrer (11:43): So meditation is one of the ways of doing that. As we get older, if we look metaphorically at aging, part of what happens for people as they age is they become rigid in their thinking emotionally. You know, they limit their emotional life. They don't read new things; they don't go to new places as much. If they go to a new place, it's in the safe confines of a luxury cruise or whatever it is. And same thing happens in the physical body. So any kind of exercise like yoga or tai chi or qigong that's fluid and flowing is going to exercise and lubricate the joints. They actually have, you know, done research and they found out that the synovial fluid, it just needs movement and regular and it'll actually come back. So these are really simple and obvious things, and part of that has to do with the fact that you're only going to notice that if you're paying attention to your experience in the body that you have and in the mind that you have when you're in your sixties or seventies. If you're not paying attention to it, and you still think, oh I can play basketball, I can stay up till one o'clock at night and not pay for it the next day or the next two days. Wayne Lehrer (12:54): You know, so if you're paying attention and you actually have valuing that feedback system, then there's a great chance that you're going to start making the quality of choices that are going to lead you to things like yoga. And you're going to listen to those podcasts and those scientists and the people at the Davis School of Gerontology that are telling you about intermittent fasting. You know, all of these things that are all incredibly valuable that may not have been at all a part of your world while you were striving to earn a living and you know, build your home and your family and your business. Orli Belman (13:29): Can you tell me a little bit more about this feedback system that develops as we age? Wayne Lehrer (13:34): Yeah. When we're younger, we can get away with everything and anything. You know, when you're in your twenties, you want to stay up all night, no problem. You want to stay up two nights and then do a presentation for work? No problem. You want to eat french fries? No problem. Exercise until you drop? No problem. But when you get older, those things are not negotiable anymore; there's a very narrow window. Most people look at that in a negative way. They think, oh I can't do this and I can't do that anymore. But the truth is that you finally have a feedback system that scientists have always had. And the only way that science moves ahead is by having a ground zero or placebo study to go against. All of a sudden you recognize that if I do this, for example, if I say I want to write a book and yet I have an allergy to wheat and I eat wheat and I'm foggy the next day, then I can't write that book. Wayne Lehrer (14:27): And if I'm committed to that thing I'm passionate about, then I'll take a look at what it's going to take for me to accomplish that. Same thing with any dietary thing or exercise element. All of a sudden I have a feedback system because my body will let me know right away and my mind will let me know and I'll know emotionally this person is somebody I'm not comfortable about. I feel toxic after I hang out with them. This is how much time I can do that for. And the value of that is it really makes us more conscious beings, so we have finally have something to measure against that allows us to grow and actually become aware and cognizant of that fine-tuned area called quality of life or wellbeing. Orli Belman (15:12): So you're saying there's a real benefit that we get to be more in tune with ourselves and know what works for us and what doesn't. Wayne Lehrer (15:19): Absolutely. Orli Belman (15:20): And you mentioned earlier this idea of contributing or doing something of value as being important as people enter their third act. And this is also a big concept in the field of gerontology: this idea that there is a benefit to living with purpose. And that's something you're obviously doing. And what do you think about the importance of purpose and the role it plays in your life? Wayne Lehrer (15:45): Well, one of the things that you see really common in people as they age is they begin to feel devalued. If you've been at a job for 20 or 30 years and all of a sudden that job's over and you derived your value from showing up at the job and that's gone, that takes a toll. Now none of these things may individually take you down, but all of a sudden there are five or 200 people every day that you're not seeing either. And so the value that they have for you and that you have for them, that's gone. Your children have moved out and you're not a parent anymore. So the value you got from parenting, from making a contribution to somebody, that's gone. So it's not so much that we need it more in later life, it's that a lot of the sources of value we've had have inadvertently–and not so necessarily obviously–disappeared. Wayne Lehrer (16:38): That said, there's also, I believe, a natural thing that happens in India. They talk about three stages of life and the third stage. And you know, you go from being a householder to somebody who gives back, also sometimes known as a forest dweller. But somebody who becomes a seeker and moves into a more spiritual stage of life where they're making a contribution. So I believe it's a natural thing that actually elevates, if we're getting our value from what we do in the world and all of a sudden we're not doing as much in the world and we need to find a new way to get our value. And it may not be as much from what we do in the world as from actually going inside. Because those jobs that we got in the world, a lot of the jobs that people have for 30 or 40 years weren't jobs that they really chose. Wayne Lehrer (17:25): They were jobs that they were shuttled into by school, by parents, by opportunities that were purely monetary. So all of a sudden, when that's taken away and you become the person that makes the choice over what you want to do with the rest of your life, you have to look inside. And that is where the real value comes. Not just the looking inside, but looking inside and coming up and saying, wait a second, this in the world really matters to me. Like it became obvious to me that I had a contribution to make because those things I started at 20 that had to do with healthy aging, I kept doing them. And so all of a sudden all my friends were saying, oh my God, you're the youngest 73-year-old, we know. You should write a book. And I thought, yeah, that'd be nice. Wayne Lehrer (18:07): And then all of a sudden it, you know, just kept occurring to me. And next thing you know, I felt a calling because I saw a lot of people struggling, making a transition from their second to their third act. So I think a lot of people, it's almost a necessity that they find value because lack of value could result in what most people term depression, isolation, loneliness. These are all the natural things that happen for a lot of people as they age. And a lot of that has to do with that. They haven't found a place to be in the world. And our value comes from multiple places. So our communities have disappeared when we get older because we're not at work, we're not at school, you know, our kids aren't there. So we're not in the family as much. Our communities have disappeared. That's a place we get value. Wayne Lehrer (18:49): A lot of our relationships change. People move away or die. All of a sudden a place that we get value in, intimate relationships is gone. We're not doing our work. So the value we're creating as a worker or as somebody making a contribution that's been taken away, I believe, it's essential on multiple levels. Not the least of which has to do with, I believe, it's the period in our life when it's our job to give back. You know, historically, in other cultures there's a tradition called the elder, you know? And the elder was valued for the lifetime's worth of wisdom and experiences that they'd had, that they could relate to others, to help others avoid the pitfalls and the pain and the struggling and the suffering. That's not a common part of our society at this time. Orli Belman (19:38): Yeah, I think what you're talking about is something that many of our faculty talk about, which is this concept of generativity. A concern for guiding and giving back to the next generation, and that certainly comes across in what you're talking about and in your book. And why do you think that is something that plays such an important role in aging? Wayne Lehrer (19:59): Well, we're tribal. You know, we're part of a society now that's all filled with individuality and ego and a separate self. And a lot of us have benefited from being masterful, in going after things on our own and achieving things. But what has taken us to is the brink in a lot of different places. And that idea of generating value for society and for others is really essential to the very nature of who we are as people, which is we are not individuals. We're part of the human family, we're part of a planet and we're at a stage now that all of those things breaking down has become cumulatively painful to us if we don't stay in denial of it. And a lot of people do stay in denial of it because they don't want to face that pain, and they don't want to face the responsibility. But as you wake up to what your value is and what value you want to create in the world, I think that whatever value that most of the people are orienting their third acts around see as their contribution actually becomes something that contributes to the momentum of future generations. And turning things around for the collectivity. Orli Belman (21:15): And we've been talking about the third act, and which is the focus of your book and your work. But at our school, we're educating so many students of all ages and some of them as young as 18. And are there any lessons that they can apply to their own lives? Wayne Lehrer (21:31): Well, first of all, I have to say that I lived my whole life bulletproof. I had no physical problems. I didn't go to a doctor for like, 30 years, so I wasn't aware. And almost everyone I know, I talk to 57-year-olds who think that I'm exaggerating certain things because they haven't actually hit the transition from their second to third act. The reality of mortality, the reality of a body that doesn't always get fixed, the reality of being able to go out and get a new job, those things haven't really hit them yet. So they haven't been – I talk about in the book — as being shattered. So for younger people, since that's not part of the reality, and most of us put off this idea that it's ever going to come, the best thing you can do is live well. Now, you know, the greatest contribution you can make to your own wellbeing as a 60, 70, or 80-year-old is to pay attention to these things that now surround us. Wayne Lehrer (22:27): You know, I mean, fitness didn't exist until the ‘50s. Psychology is only 50 or 100 years old, really. You know, or at least in the common parlance. It also kind of came in in the ‘50s. Retirement wasn't ever a possibility. So all of these things are new things. So, you know, to prepare yourself for a life that's going to go beyond just what you're doing now and just what you're attempting to achieve. Because you talk about an 18-year-old, they're at the beginning of their second act and all they see is, you know, the people that they admire, the role models in the second act. They see few role models in their third act. You know, the few people like, let's say, Jimmy Carter may be people that are sparking on one or two cylinders. But what about the people that are still healthy? Still can run a marathon? That have found ways to, you know, generate whole new fields of study. Wayne Lehrer (23:22): As I said, I think the most important thing that a young person can do, whether they're in the field of gerontology or not, is to really pay attention to what is required to live a healthy, well-balanced life, that's going to lead to a quality of living that's going to last you into your eighties or nineties or a hundred years old. Because a lot of the stuff that you lose, you can't get back. Now, a lot of it you can. I mean, I teach yoga to people that are incredibly inflexible, that start at 60 or 70. And if I watch a 50% turnaround in their flexibility, that means that the next 10 or 20 years of their life are going to be a lot better. Not just minimally better, but they're going to be a lot better. They're going to wake up in the morning and not immediately have to take some sort of medicine that's going to numb them out a little bit because they're in pain all day. And we know that a lot of people that age are doing that. Yeah, so the best medicine is doing it in advance. Orli Belman (24:21): And on the flip side, are there any lessons you think that people in their third act can draw from young people today? Any things that they're doing in their own lives that could be beneficial as we age? Wayne Lehrer (24:33): That's a really great question. And I know it's been really challenging for me and a lot of the people I know, one of the greatest qualities of young people, in fact, when we talk about old people, a lot of times what we say is they're stuck. They're rigid, they're not interested in new things. And if we talk about somebody that's young, curious to become curious again, that's an amazing quality that you can get from hanging around kids. And I think it's a lot of the thing that so many people in their third act love about being with their grandchildren. You know, you hang out with your grandchild for a couple hours and it's like, why? What? How come, you know? So I think curiosity is one of those things. Doing new things, you know, it's a chapter in my book. It's really important because what happens is you find a lot of older people and they say, oh, I've been there, I've done that. Wayne Lehrer (25:26): I don't like that anymore. Rather than look at maybe there's a new way to do that thing that you don't like, that could be incredibly joyful at this stage of your life. The other thing that young people I think can teach to older people is to really be willing to just live with your fears. Like I know at 30 I went back to school to become a filmmaker. My first job out of film school was directing the top newscaster in the world. That was my first job. I didn't think anything about it. And here I am, starting this whole new thing and I've got to learn all of these new things. It's no different than I did 40 years ago. And yet I want to admit, I feel terror often now, you know. Feel the fear and do it anyway is what you do when you're younger. Wayne Lehrer (26:12): Even if you're feeling the fear, most young people are in denial of it. But most of the time it's just like, okay, well, you know, what's the worst that can happen? When an old person says, what's the worst that can happen? They come up with a litany of worst-case scenarios, maybe only one or two of which actually were horrible and even happened. So I think that's another great thing, you know, to do new things, remain curious, investigate. Oh, finally be playful. You know, I have a group of guys that are between 30 and I'm the oldest and we go to the beach, and we meet at the beach in the morning. We meditate on the sand, and then we body surf. You want to turn into an 8-year-old boy? Go to the beach with a bunch of guys and at 6:30 in the morning, jump in the ocean and body surf. That just changes the quality and tenor of the rest of my day. A little bit of playfulness, a little bit of curiosity, a little bit of willingness to do things that I'm terrified of, all are reinvigorating me. And I believe that when you hear a lot of people say, this is the best time of their life, they're all probably have those qualities happening. Orli Belman (27:18): That's really wonderful advice. What would you say to people on this idea of trying new things? Who say, I can't do yoga, I'm not able to do that, I don't want, I'm not interested in meditation. How do you convince people to try something new? Wayne Lehrer (27:34): Well, I think it's really valuable to look around. You know, there's a saying, if you want to stop doing heroin, stop hanging out with heroin addicts. [laughs] You know, if you want to do these things, start hanging out with people that are living that new third act. So what happens to a lot of older people is they stay in the same circles. You know, I know that almost everybody that's in my life right now, of any age or people that inspire me, I don't really hang out with anybody that doesn't inspire me anymore. And so now obviously some people say, well, family, okay, so put family aside if they don't inspire you. But I think that it's essential to look around and see the people that you admire the most, that have aged the best, who you think have a real quality of life and do what they do. Wayne Lehrer (28:19): You know? And the other thing is, again, if you're doing new things and you're curious. You know, I hear all the time, I used to do yoga, but now my body doesn't like it. Well find a new yoga class. If you remember how it made you feel, then doing it in a new way, maybe a gentler class, maybe a, a hot yoga class that's in the dark, that's slow, where you hold the poses and no one's looking at you because you may be self-conscious. Maybe that's the answer to it. But not doing it is only going to make your life collapse. And I believe that one of the biggest problems with aging is people's worlds get smaller and smaller. Orli Belman (28:58): And just on an actual like, practical level, if you know someone in your life who says, I'm not going to try yoga. What's a way to convince them to give it a try? Wayne Lehrer (29:07): Like anything, tell them how it makes you feel. You know, share your enthusiasm, share your joy. Share the difference it's made for you. Whether it's meditation–I mean, so many people I know that are older, because I teach meditation and yoga, you know, they'll say to me, I say, well try this class or go there. And once I get a taste of it, there's a song by a friend of mine and he's got a line in it. He says, I've just had a taste of something fine. I think if you can get somebody to just try something, you know, so that may be part of your negotiating with them is like, just try it. If you don't like it, you never need to do it again. But what do you have to lose? Because the downside is, I joke in my yoga class all the time, I said, okay, so you're 40 years old and you can't do the splits. What if it takes you 40 years to be able to do the splits? That means at 80 years old, you're going to be doing the splits. You're going to be the hottest person in your senior housing place. People are going to be knocking on your door at 11 o'clock at night. Orli Belman (30:04): [laughs] Well, being curious and playful and active and flexible. That is all really wonderful advice. And is there anything you want to add that we haven't talked about? Wayne Lehrer (30:16): Yeah, I think one of the things that I didn't know when I started writing my book and what caused me to write it, what inspired it was that I got moderately depressed. Which is, you know, I got depressed, you know, and I didn't know what it was about. So I went to a psychotherapist who specialized in gerontology, and while I was working with him, he kept working on my depression. And after a couple months there, I realized that depression wasn't my problem. My problem was that I was stuck in this, what I call second act operating system of achieving and acquiring and accumulating and building and competing when in fact, that's not what I was doing anymore. So I was defining myself. I was in a losing proposition. And I think a lot of people when they get into their fifties, sixties, and seventies, keep defining themselves by their second act, body, minds, jobs. Wayne Lehrer (31:08): And so making that transition is one of the most challenging things. So historically we had the, you know, what's called an identity crisis. Which was between 20 and 21, you know, somewhere, you know, between your first and your second act. Tons of role models, easy transition. You went to college, you got a job, you know, decided on a profession, you got married. These are all natural things that, what do you do? What does someone do? Going from not working, from working every day, having kids at home, and all of a sudden all of that's gone? There are no role models for it. So it's a very challenging proposition. You need to find healthy communities, you need the help of, whether it's a therapist who specializes in this or somebody who coaches you through this transition process. I believe it's the biggest challenge that anyone's going to face as they enter into old age, which is learning to redefine themselves by a new operating system. Orli Belman (32:05): Well, thank you so much for being that role model. Our podcast is called Lessons in Lifespan Health, and you've certainly given us so many lessons to learn from today. So thank you so much for joining us. Wayne Lehrer (32:17): Oh, it was such a pleasure. Thank you, Orli. Orli Belman (32:19): That wraps up this Lesson in Lifespan Health.

How can we reimagine a world with plastic? How can we push governments and companies to admit what they know about the health impacts of plastics and change public policy?Kathleen Rogers is the President of EARTHDAY.ORG. Under her leadership, it has grown into a global year-round policy and activist organization with an international staff. She has been at the vanguard of developing campaigns and programs focused on diversifying the environmental movement, highlighted by Campaign for Communities and Billion Acts of Green. Prior to her work at EARTHDAY.ORG, Kathleen held senior positions with the National Audubon Society, the Environmental Law Institute, and two U.S. Olympic Organizing Committees. She's a graduate of the University of California at Davis School of Law, where she served as editor-in-chief of the law review and clerked in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. EARTHDAY.ORG's 2024 theme, Planet vs. Plastics, calls to advocate for widespread awareness of the health risks of plastics, rapidly phase out all single-use plastics, urgently push for a strong UN Treaty on Plastic Pollution, and demand to end fast fashion. Let's build a plastic-free planet for generations to come."The world recognizes that plastics have imperiled our future. Many environmentalists, myself included, view plastics as on par with, if not worse than, climate change because we do see a little light at the end of the tunnel on climate change. Babies vs. Plastics is a collection of studies, and we particularly focused on children and babies because their bodies and brains are more impacted than adults by the 30, 000 chemicals that assault us every day.We have histories littered with dozens of stories and court cases of malfeasance where companies knew for years before we, the public, did about the impacts. Climate change is a perfect example because we know Exxon scientists knew in 1957 that burning fossil fuels was creating climate change and that eventually, the temperature of the planet would heat up, and they hid it from us for 50-plus years. And more and more reports are coming out every day about what companies and some governments know. Tobacco companies knew tobacco caused cancer for decades before our scientists did.

On this episode of Fire of Genius, Caroline and Taylor welcome Professor Peter Lee from University of California, Davis School of Law, to discuss ways to enhance the wider societal effects of innovation.
Those in favor of abortion access notched several more victories in Tuesday's elections. Reproductive rights played a role in Democratic wins in Virginia, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania. In Ohio, voters enshrined the right to abortion access in the state's constitution. “It has become very hard for Republicans to distance themselves from these laws that are now on the books,” says Mary Ziegler, professor at U.C. Davis School of Law. Ziegler is one of the country's leading experts on the law, history, and politics of reproduction in the United States. She joins Diane on On My Mind to discuss where the abortion debate goes from here and whether it will be a deciding factor in 2024.

Lifespans have increased significantly in the 21st century and older adults report high levels of happiness. But there are major challenges an aging population poses - and faces - at the societal, governmental, legal and individual levels. MT Connolly, the former head of the U.S. Department of Justice's Elder Justice Initiative, discusses her new book The Measure of Our Age: Navigating Care, Safety, Money and Meaning Later in Life and ways of improving life for older adults at those different levels. MT Connolly joins us from Washington, DC. ___________________ Bio MT Connolly, a leading national expert on elder justice, was awarded a MacArthur "genius" grant for her work shaping research, policy and practice. She was founding head of DOJ's Elder Justice Initiative, architect of the federal Elder Justice Act, and lead author of the Elder Justice Roadmap, setting priorities for the field. That work, and her research for "The Measure of Our Age: Navigating Care, Safety, Money and Meaning Later in Life," led her to co-design teams that provide more holistic, hopeful, and evidence-based services aimed to reduce trouble and enhance connection as we age, like the innovative "RISE" program. First pilot-tested in Maine, and now expanding elsewhere, RISE services are “person-centered” and can include support for caregivers and others. MT grew up in Rochester, Minnesota and the Northwoods of Wisconsin, graduated from Stanford and Northeastern University School of Law, is adjunct faculty at USC's Davis School of Gerontology, and lives in Washington, DC. _________________________ For More on MT Connolly The Measure of Our Age: Navigating Care, Safety, Money, and Meaning Later in Life Website ________________________ Podcast Episodes You May Like Breaking the Age Code – Dr. Becca Levy Who Will Take Care of You When You Are Older? – Joy Loverde Are You Ready for The New Long Life? – Andrew Scott Getting Good at Getting Older – Rabbi Laura Geller _________________________ Mentioned in This Podcast Episode Is This Risk on Your Radar? – Julie Belshe How the Elderly Lose Their Rights - The New Yorker The Mindful Body – Ellen Langer The New Old Age - David Brooks in The Atlantic Dr. Kate Wilber USC ___________________________ Wise Quotes On Creativity and Curiosity "Then there's aging as an opportunity. The late chapters of life has been a good opportunity for expanded creativity and curiosity. And I think we really underestimate old age in this respect, because there is so much we can do. And recent article by David Brooks in the Atlantic focusing on Encore Time focused on this as well. And I think that it's a spectacular time to do something new, to try something new that can also be tremendously enriching. There's the power of awe and transformation. Life is, and time is transformation. We're always changing. But also if we focus on what we think is beautiful, what is transcendent? And that's different for everybody. It might be a night sky for somebody. For another person, it might be a religious practice. For another person, it might be meditation, or a trip to the Grand Canyon. It's different for everybody, but it's feeling like we're part of something bigger, like this great flow of humanity, but also the universe. We're the tiny little specks in the universe. And ironically, really embracing that and feeling that can change our existence." On Time and Meaning "...the sacred gift of time is the greatest upside of aging. A lot of people are deprived of that gift historically, and in our own time. The other way that I think about the upsides is that what I've tried to do both in my writing and i...
Syndicated columnist, author, and lecturer, Helen Dennis specializes in aging and the new retirement. Her more than 1,000 “Successful Aging” columns for the Southern California News Group reach 1.2 million readers weekly. About Helen Helen Dennis is a nationally recognized leader on issues of aging and the new retirement with academic, corporate and nonprofit experience. She has received numerous awards for her university teaching at the University of Southern California's Davis School of Gerontology and for her contributions to the field of aging, the community, and literary arts. As one of the nation's leading experts on preparing for the non-economic aspects of retirement, she has worked with over 25,000 employees at corporations, universities, and religious institutions to do just that. Editor of two books, author of over 100 additional articles and frequent speaker, Helen is co-founder of Renewment®: and co-author of the Los Angeles Times bestseller, "Project Renewment: The First Retirement Model for Career Women" (Scribner). She has been recognized by PBS Next Avenue as one of the 50 influencers in aging. In her volunteer life she has been president of five nonprofit organizations and has been recognized with awards for her leadership. Key Takeaways Ageism is the dominant theme in Dennis' Successful Aging column. Other key themes include loss—of loved ones, physical ability, and jobs—caregiving, and cognitive health. There is a shortage of geriatricians in the U.S.—approximately 7,500 board-certified geriatricians for nearly 56 million people 65 and over in the U.S. Workplace and retirement are big issues for older adults—finding a new identity and sense of purpose as overarching themes. Dennis recommends taking a breath and thinking about what brings pleasure and joy. Aging is a hard sell. We need to figure out how to make it palatable and aspirational. Aging needs to be framed in both realistic and positive terms with a focus on opportunities.

As the founding director of the UC Davis Train New Trainers Primary Care Psychiatry Fellowship, Dr. McCarron aims to expand access to mental healthcare delivery, emphasizing the importance of addressing both physical and emotional pain in patients. The episode covers three key components of treatment: therapy, medication, and whole person care. Dr. McCarron advocates for empowering patients in decision-making and planting the seed for treatment, rather than pushing them into therapies they may not be ready for. He provides an overview of commonly used antidepressants like SSRIs and SNRIs and highlights the challenges of finding therapists due to the shortage of psychiatrists and insurance complexities. His training program equips primary care providers with brief psychotherapy skills, such as cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing, to initiate treatment while patients wait for specialized care, ensuring better mental health support overall.

He holds significant leadership roles, including the immediate past president of the Central California Psychiatric Society and the Association of Medicine and Psychiatry.

Kate shares about her approach for navigating gender dysphoria compassionately, grounded in realism, and offers clear, practical advice to parents.Dr. Kate Goonan is board certified physician who graduated from University of California at Davis School of Medicine and completed her residency at Massachusetts General Hospital in Primary Care Internal Medicine. After several years of practicing primary care and women's health, her career focus moved to evidence-based medicine and quality improvement.

A parent in Utah challenges a new law that wants all books, the mention sex, banned from the Davis School libraries.

It's been less than a year since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and now abortions are banned in 13 states. And in several other states, abortion is prohibited after a certain length of pregnancy. But now the new frontier in the legal fight is all about the abortion pill as a Texas judge weighs arguments from anti-abortion groups who are suing the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These groups want the judge to order the FDA to withdraw its two decades-long approval of a drug called mifepristone that's used in abortion pills. If this happens, it could curtail access to abortion pills across the entire country. Mary Ziegler, a professor at the University of California's Davis School of Law, shares her thoughts on this case and other efforts that are contributing to the uncertain legal landscape for the abortion pill in the United States.

Hear how memories impact you now and guide your future What are your memories of growing up? Your friends? Neighborhood? Life-changing moments in our society? In today's podcast, Helen Newman, a friend from my elementary school (Davis Elementary School in New Rochelle, NY) and I discuss the power of memories. Although we had different experiences in high school (she was in a sorority, I was president of the Salmagundi Club), we both experienced the good times and not-so-good times of the 1960s. The funny thing about memories is that they're selective. We pick and choose the ones that fit our own story, often one where we are the heroes and we forget what others were struggling with or enjoying all around us. I guarantee that after listening to Helen, you will be amazed at her wisdom and joy. Helen writes about something every month. Sometimes it is about why that month means something to her. Other times, she writes about old friends and new ones. But in today's conversation, we go deeply into the anguish we all felt during high school. If you were alive then, you like us will forever ask: "Where was I when John F. Kennedy was shot?" We even remember what we were wearing. We also talk about how we felt when our biology teacher, Mrs. Schwerner, lost her son during the civil rights unrest in the South. And the conflicting passions surrounding the Vietnam War. To state the obvious, we grew up in very challenging times. This month (November), she wrote about our autograph books. It was hysterical to remember what people wrote about. Her book was filled with poignant, loving, sincere and sentimental sayings, like: "Helen and whomever, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G." You remember those. Her favorite, and mine as well: “When you get old and out of shape, remember girdles are $2.98.” Sadly, they don't make autograph books anymore, and I would have to dig into my attic to find mine. But you get the point! Helen never expected to be a writer. A while ago, she started to write and then it became a wonderful hobby. I love the blog posts that seem to touch everyone's heart. She remembers stuff that we might also, but she puts it into a story (usually her own) and brings us back to the days when...you can finish my sentence. My message to you, our listeners, is to find your own Helen Newman. Or become one for others. Remembering is so important as time flies, and the moment brings back the time and place you were growing up in. We might still be growing up, never growing old, but we continue to live each day, forgetting how our past framed our present and set the stage for the future. I cannot thank Helen enough for joining us today and sharing her own story. Think about writing yours. You can contact Helen at hnewman@tsjesq.com. My quote for us today: “The worst part of holding the memories is not the pain. It's the loneliness of it. Memories need to be shared.” ― Lois Lowry, The Giver For more about storytelling and the role it plays in our memories, try these: Blog: How Storytelling Can Transform Your Culture And Energize Your Team Podcast: Karen Dietz—Your Story Is Your Secret to Amazing Success Podcast: Roshni Pandey—To Find Your Happiness, Assemble The Kind Of Life You Want Additional resources for you My two award-winning books: Rethink: Smashing The Myths of Women in Businessand On the Brink: A Fresh Lens to Take Your Business to New Heights Our website: Simon Associates Management Consultants Read the transcript of our podcast here Andi Simon: Welcome to On the Brink With Andi Simon. Hi, I'm Andi Simon. As you know, I'm your host and your guide, and my job is to get you off the brink. You know, my company, Simon Associates Management Consultants, we've been around for 20 years, helping people see, feel and think in new ways so they can change. And I often look for people who are going to give you a new perspective so you too can begin to see things through a fresh lens. You maybe even step back like an anthropologist (like myself) and observe what's going on and reflect on it, reflect on yourself, and begin to find great ways to think in new ways. So today, I have a wonderful woman here, Helen Newman. Helen and I go back to elementary school. And I'm going to let her tell you her story because as we were talking, and I was reading the things that she writes on Facebook, to bring back the memories, I said, "My audience should hear you remember." We're storymakers. Humans love to make stories. And when we do use memories to create them, we connect in ways that are really magical. I'm going to read you one of hers in a moment. But first, Helen, thanks for joining me today. Helen Newman: It's a pleasure to be here. Andi Simon: Tell the listeners, who is Helen Newman and what's your journey all about? Helen Newman: My journey, let's say I'm a senior citizen so I've had a long journey. I grew up in New Rochelle, a suburb of New York. And when I look back, I think of my childhood as wonderment. Of course, there were bad days, a middle child, typically an outgoing introvert. And I had to fight for my place in the house. There were three girls, and I'm in the middle. It was my friends, my school that meant the most to me. And I never forgot that. I went to New Rochelle High School with you. I met my husband in New Rochelle. He wasn't in the high school with me because he had already graduated. But he also was from New Rochelle. He passed away 10 years ago. I went to art school after high school, I wanted to be an art teacher. But I always secretly wanted to be a writer. In those years, I hope your listeners remember that for women, it wasn't all that easy. And even my own mother who was kind of a beatnik, she was a pianist, even she said, "Well, be a teacher. You know, you'll be home in the summer with your kids." And all of that 1963, mid '60s, feeling. But secretly, I always wanted to be a writer. Andi Simon: But you didn't become a writer? Helen Newman: No, I did not. As a child, I lived in a cul de sac. And I used to write plays when I was nine years old. And made all of the girls in the cul de sac be in the play and make the parents pay to come and see it. Andi Simon: I know when you were telling me that, I suspect that I even attended them. Helen Newman: I remember doing The Princess and The Pea. I got the Golden Book and then wrote my own scripts. And I think I was about nine or 10. But I was never encouraged in any way other than to be an artist. She couldn't see beyond the teacher. And I love children. So she knew that. My father, however, said to me, "You should be an attorney because you can argue on any subject." And I ended up working in a law firm after teaching. It's really funny because I still remember my father saying, "You can argue any case." He didn't have any sons so I was the son he never had. Andi Simon: Oh, I love it. The interesting part, as we were preparing for this, we were reminiscing. You know, we both went to school at a time when New Rochelle was, I'm going to guess, half Jewish and half African American, maybe 40/40. But it was a very interesting time. We held hands and sang We Shall Overcome. Absolutely. It was a time when Michael Schwerner, who was our biology teacher's son, was killed in the South. And one of the folks on the Facebook stream went under the Michael Schwerner bridge on the Hutchinson Parkway and was reminiscing. The reminiscing part is really important. We were there when John Kennedy was shot. And we all can vividly remember what we were doing and where we were at that moment in high school. Helen Newman: Yeah, just recently, a niece of my daughter in-law from New Jersey interviewed me on where I was the day Kennedy was shot, and what I was doing, and I said, "Not only do I remember everything, but I can tell you what I was wearing. That's the impact." Andi Simon: But I remember that all of us had gone through the Vietnam War period. I mean, we were all growing up in a transformational moment for American society. I don't think it's ever stopped being transformed. But I agree, I do think that we were growing up and changing at the same time. Helen Newman: Yes. I think it's really important to change. When you grow, you change when you go out into society. When you meet people, you change. That's why friends of mine have used the term, "Oh, I'm old school." And they do it on purpose. Because it drives me crazy, the hairs on my neck stand up. Old school means you're not changing with the times. Andi Simon: Oh, so interesting. So they've boxed you in yet you do your own thing. Ten years ago, you lost your husband and then you started to write on Facebook on our New Rochelle High School class of '64 Facebook places. Was losing your husband a catalyst for this or just you needed something to do? What was the momentum there? Helen Newman: No, actually, starting in 1974, I was called by a few friends because I have this weird organizational talent. Don't ask me why. They called me and said, "Let's have a ten-year reunion." And I always like working. I always like having a project. So I said, "Okay, I'll do it." And I did. And it's very interesting. Very few people came. And it was the 23rd year of our graduation when someone called me and truthfully, I don't even remember who it was, I think it was three or four people called, and said, "You should do a 25th." And I said, "Oh, God, it's a lot of work." But I did it. We had 400 of our graduates come to White Plains, NY for the 25th reunion. And the feeling, I can tell you something that I still remember, I was sitting at the welcoming table because I had to be like the boss and show everybody what to do. And I saw two groups of people walk in and see each other for the first time in 25 years. And they started screaming and running to each other. And I looked at my friends and I said, "This is worth it. It's worth it. Look at these people. They are so happy to see each other." And that was when it started. Then when it was our 48th anniversary, I got another call who said, "You have to do it for 50 years." And I said, "It's a lot of work, but I'll do it." I formed a committee on Facebook. There's a Facebook New Rochelle High School Facebook page. And I started to promote it. How else do you do it? So I started writing. Ah, and from then on the countdown, all of the questions that helped me find people all over the country. Very few stayed in New Rochelle. I've been one of the only few that are still here. And it snowballed into people calling me and saying, "What are you posting? I love your posts." And again, I'm the typical outgoing introvert. I like to be with a lot of people but I like to be by myself. Oh, this was way after the reunion, I got phone calls again: "Don't stop posting. I look forward to it," because people want to remember. They do want to remember. And it's important. Our friendships were important. We lost contact with people, we regained that contact. It's so special to me that I don't even have the words and I'm filled with words. I don't have the words to express to you how much it means to me that people have reconnected because of me. Andi Simon: I'm going to read Helen's latest September 2nd posting, a piece of it, so you can get the feeling because I want to go back to what she said is important to her. But it's also important to all the 1000 folks who are graduates who are reading it, and the 125 who view it and then share it and then comment on it. And I watch their names and I'm going to say we hung out. This is cool. So this is September: As I was pondering what to write, I suddenly realized that the month of September is filled with memories and holidays to celebrate. Now, the hard part is trying to focus on one particular aspect of the month. Oh my goodness, obviously, I cannot write funny anecdotes about how deliriously happy we are that our kids are going back to school. I can't even write about how deliriously unhappy teachers are to go back to school. Most of you, not all, but most of you must be retired, so you know that subject. I could write about Labor Day, but I believe I've told you all this. However, one statistic is interesting. Did you know that more people are born in September than any other month of the year? Yeah, that was interesting. Is that why we celebrate Labor Day in September? Maybe? September 10 Is TV dinner day. Do you remember the TV dinners? Oh, I remember them. Except they're called streaming dinners now, and I laugh. Also September 17 is locate a friend. But I've already located all of you. And then there's September 19: respect for the aging day. No, definitely not that. And I can tell you, Helen, I'm not the only one who was laughing. So here's what I've decided. I'd like to celebrate Google. Oh, so important. No, so needed effect. Did you know that Backrub was the original name of Google? You imagine it being called Backrub? I got to get a backrub. Really? I know. You can tell me more about it. Google was founded on September 4, 1998. Now think about it. By Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were PhD students at Stanford. I shudder to think of what my life would be like if I didn't Google everything. I watch a film and Google the director. I read a book and Google the author. I'm a Google libertarian. Helen Newman: Don't bother googling me. I come up as Helen Newman Hall, rec center. Andi Simon: And so enjoy your Labor Day weekend. And then keep laughing. And those comments are all absolutely beautiful comments, because we never stop learning interesting things about September. I can't even begin to count the time. So I'm asking Google for info. Thanks, Helen. I love this post. I wonder if the number of babies born in September were after the end of the war. So I share with you my listeners and my audience why Helen was so important to bring to you. Because she makes us laugh. You can't read her stuff. You're not part of the private group. But she can tell us about that. How do you decide what to write about? And where do you get the humor, and how I want the listeners to think about their stories, and how important it is in their lives, to connect, to belong and to be part of something more than just where you are today. The memories make your life more meaningful. So tell us how you became this writer? That's just brilliant. Helen Newman: Well, thank you. I love writing. I love making people laugh. Those are my two specialties. I researched the months. Two weeks before I post, I research the month to see what holidays people make up. I don't know where these holidays ever came from but they're on Google. You can Google a month and you will see 50 to 60 holidays. Then I print them out and I circle the ones that could be funny to us and circle the ones that would mean something to us. I try to incorporate something funny about being a senior. Something funny about our childhood and something to remember for all of us to remember. And I start writing. I write on my computer, I print it out, I edit it. The next day I look it over, I make it funnier. It's like a job, but it's a job I love. Yes. And I'll tell you, what keeps me going is that one month, I think I was in California visiting my children. And I didn't come home until the sixth of the month. When I got home, I had four messages on my answering machine: "Are you okay? Did something happened? I'm waiting for your post." And I thought, oh my god, people really do wait for it. People love to remember. People love the funny things we can remember. People love to remember their childhood friends. Yep. And it means so much to me that 125 people at least read those posts that I post. And because I don't post anything on regular Facebook, it's only on our page. I don't believe in my life being that important to someone to my 400 friends on Facebook, because I love the fact that people love to talk about their past and what we were like when we were children. Just the other morning, I was like at the Tweed Ward school. I don't know, your listeners won't know. But you'll know, on Quaker Ridge Road between Ward School and Albert Lemon, and the crossing guard was letting a young lady cross. I would say she was in the eighth, seventh or eighth grade. She was wearing Ugg slippers, short shorts, her backpack, a short t-shirt and a sweatshirt. And all I could remember was Mr. Daley called my mother because my skirt was above my knee. I thought she was adorable. But, all I could remember was Mr. Daley calling my mother and said that my skirt was too short. That was probably in 1960, probably 1961. I think the New Abbot Leonard that we went to was in 1961, wasn't it? Andi Simon: Albert Leonard was a junior high school and Ward School became an elementary school. At the time, the population of children was growing very rapidly. And I only moved up there when I was 10. So you can get some dating and it was promos that I went to, and we all walked there. And Joyce was there. And we all rode our bikes. And we rode our bikes to Lord and Taylor. And it was a great community. Helen Newman: When Lord and Taylor closed, I almost was in tears because we used to ride our bikes there. Andi Simon: So the memories are essential to who we are. Helen Newman: They are absolutely essential to who we are. It. I think one of my posts mentioned, we had to have license plates on our bicycles. And I remember the test at Davis School. Kids don't have to do it now. We were so into our school. We were so into each other. It means a lot to remember that. Andi Simon: It does. It does. And sometimes I need some clarity on my memories, because I lived on Primrose Avenue. But I went to the Davis School. And as I said those words I said, No, that's not right. You didn't go to the Primrose School, you went to the Davis School up the hill. And I do think that sometimes our minds forget all important kinds of things that we want to learn to remember. So as you're looking forward, I always like to look ahead a little bit. You know, it sounds like you're going to be doing this for a long time. It gives you great pleasure. Helen Newman: It gives me great pleasure. It's getting harder because I don't want to repeat myself and I've been doing it for 10 years, once a month for 10 years. So I will keep doing it as long as the people respond because that's what keeps me going. They love to remember that we were great kids. Kids are great. Andi Simon: We were great kids and we cared about each other. And one of my mom's legacies was when she would say to me, "Andrea, I really don't care what everyone else was doing, you only hear what you're doing." It was a very hard way to grow up, because I wasn't quite sure what I was supposed to be doing. And then once you want to watch what other people are doing, and then figure out if that was good or bad, but I remember growing up and having to make choices. And it was a time where you had to find good friends who helped you make good choices, because it wasn't hard to make bad ones. Helen Newman: Absolutely. It wasn't hard at all. And yet, I don't know any kids that I ever knew that made terrible choices, which was very lucky on my part. We didn't drink. We didn't smoke. We didn't do drugs. We didn't work in my house. We listened to music because my mother was a pianist. So music has always been a big part of my life. And my mother died when she was quite young. So that's another reason why I like to remember. Andi Simon: You spoke about how you do this but that sounds like a pretty good process for anybody who's listening. And we'd like to do it as well. You got to do a little research. Right? Helen Newman: Look at what's around you. I don't know if it was last October, or the October before conducting three years ago, I don't know. I was driving to work and I saw a sign for Oktoberfest. And right away, as I'm driving to work, I'm composing my post about Oktoberfest. There's always ways you can connect. And I'll tell you what's really the loveliest part, there's a few of the women who post on Facebook, answering my posts, and they come here twice a year to have lunch with me. That's pretty cool. To have them live in the city, which is not far away. But one of them lives in South Carolina, the other lives in Florida. They come up to New York to see their children and for other reasons. And they make sure to call me and usually in December, we have a little lunch. And just as these are my friends from forever. Andi Simon: I was a professional up in Poughkeepsie, and I'm at a party. And a woman walks over and said, "Are you Andi Simon?" And I said, "Yes." She said, "I'm Dana Men." So I said, "Oh my gosh!" You know, I was like, ah, you know, six degrees of separation. Helen Newman: You're absolutely right. And with me still being here and my husband from New Rochelle, no matter where I go, someone will say, "Wait, did I know you in high school?" Yeah, it's fun. It's important for us to remember our childhood, see this and grow from that. Not everyone had a perfect childhood. I always told my kids, and I'll probably leave you with this: there are three types of families. There's dysfunctional, semi-dysfunctional, and television. Called my kids that perfect family except Father Knows Best. Andi Simon: You're so funny. Helen Newman: And now that we're parents and grandparents, remember your parents and your grandparents and what they went through. Andi Simon: I feel extremely blessed because my kids are out in California and visiting my kids is just terrific. Ones are in New Hampshire, terrific ones in California. Terrific. They have great families, and they're raising great grandkids. And so I sit back and I look and I say, Well, I was professional from the time you were babies. And you seem to have raised yourselves really well. And I'm delighted. Helen Newman: So they raised themselves. I have two children, both living in California, both working in Hollywood. So they were brought up with a mother who cared about music, art and film and writing. And they themselves are there. So doing the same thing. Andi Simon: Helen, any last words or shall we wrap up for our listeners? Helen Newman: It was a pleasure to talk to you. I love my Facebook, my New Rochelle High School Facebook page. I'm so glad that you read my posts. I want everyone out there to understand that your childhood is really important. Yeah, don't forget to think about it and don't forget it. Andi Simon: I'm going to add to that being an anthropologist, like I am, we spend a lot of time understanding that people are story makers and storytellers. I will tell you there's nothing in Helen's posts, she's a wonderful novelist, but none of our own memories are true. The only thing we have are our memories, which are great stories, right? That's why when she and I started comparing the numbering, meaning, where we were and how your mind wants to make sense out of now, in the context of where you were, then exactly. And so the best thing you can do is start to write and make it a blog that you can share with your family, or just make it in your diary so that you can keep it for yourself, but don't lose the memories. Because it helps you belong to something bigger than just yourself. And your thoughts? Helen Newman: Well, that's exactly how I feel. Andi Simon: Now I'm going to post this and push this out into the world. And for our listeners, we are in the top 5% of global podcasts. And I'm honored because it's you who helps share, and so many of you listen and then email us and tell us what you've enjoyed. I'm anxious to hear about starting to write your own stuff and share it with us. And let's use Facebook for all the things that can be done and Google as well. So at the end of the day, I want you to have a very happy day and enjoy the memories. Thanks again. Goodbye.
