“I think that my analytic awareness of denial and projection and the concreteness of psychic reality when executive function wanes, that I could help the other caretakers to understand some of what was going on - to give them a way to understand that relieves their sense of frustration and uncertainty. I think that the analytic awareness of denial, of projection, that these things are not generally recognized by many caretakers, but it does reorient and make the caretaking function much more tolerable. It expands the understanding of what goes on in the waning personality. I also think that analytic work fosters the capacity to tolerate ambiguity, uncertainty, pain and frustration and in that way may allow us, the analytic mind, to tolerate some of the intense affect - as sort of the phrase I love from an Italian analyst, as “writings waiting to be completed” - by the analytic mind. We can hold and metabolize the difficulty and offer that kind of function rather than unpleasantness just to be rid of. These are some of the things that I felt are useful as a psychoanalyst.” Episode Description: We begin with describing how dementia is a cloud over our field both for individuals and for institutes. Maxine then introduces us to 'Sally' who was her analysand 40 years prior to recontacting her to care for her cognitive decline. Maxine mentions that just hearing her former patient's voice instantly brought alive her past experiences with her. We discuss how she approached the issue of caring for her and her neurological condition. We consider the at times overlap between psychogenic and organic symptoms and she shares with us her countertransference experiences of herself losing her memory. Maxine also shares her approach to answering Sally's questions about the possibility of recovering. We close with her describing how she feels that being an analyst aided her care of Sally and what she learned from that experience that she brought to her other patients -"to face the pain of difficult truths."   Our Guest: Maxine Anderson, MD, is a training and supervising analyst at the Northwestern Psychoanalytic Society and Institute, the Seattle Psychoanalytic Institute and Society and the Canadian Psychoanalytic Society. Originally trained in psychiatry, she pursued psychoanalytic training in Seattle in the early 1970s and then pursued post-graduate work at the British Psychoanalytical Society for 8 years, returning to Seattle in 1992.  Thereafter, she became a Founding Member of the Northwestern Psychoanalytic Society and Institute. Maxine has published several articles, and chapters and 3 books, the most recent being The Hardest Passage: a psychoanalyst accompanies her patient's journey into dementia (Karnac, 2025). Feeling herself now to be an Elder in life and in her field, Maxine hopes to continue to think and write about this phase of personal and professional life.   Recommended Readings: Balfour, A.

What happens to ADHD when the scaffolds of career and parenting fade, and we're left navigating a world that's quieter, slower… and far less structured?This week on Taking Control: The ADHD Podcast, Pete and Nikki are joined by one of the most influential voices in ADHD research and advocacy: Dr. Kathleen Nadeau. An internationally recognized expert and the author of 14 books on ADHD, Kathleen is the founder and director of the Chesapeake Center—one of the largest private ADHD specialty clinics in the U.S. Her career has been defined by breaking new ground for underserved ADHD populations, and today she turns our attention to one of the most overlooked groups of all: older adults.Drawing on extensive research—including interviews with more than 150 individuals for her groundbreaking book Still Distracted After All These Years: Help and Support for Older Adults with ADHD—Kathleen guides us through the realities of aging with ADHD. She brings nuance, humor, and urgency to topics like isolation, structure loss, hormonal shifts, executive dysfunction, and the ADHD tax that shows up in the fine print of Social Security forms and medical claims. We discuss how declining circadian rhythms and deep sleep disruption may connect ADHD to increased dementia risk, and why the U.S. is still lagging behind global standards in using hormone replacement therapy to support cognitive health in aging women with ADHD.But this conversation isn't about despair—it's about reinvention, resilience, and the power of community. Kathleen shares powerful stories of support groups that thrive beyond professional guidance and offers practical strategies for maintaining purpose and mental clarity well into our later years.If you or someone you love is navigating ADHD after 50, this is the episode that finally speaks to that experience—with candor, compassion, and hard-won insight.Links & NotesStill Distracted After All These Years: Help and Support for Older Adults with ADHD by Dr. Kathleen NadeauThe End of Alzheimer's by Dr. Dale Bredesen“The How and Why of Sleep” NIH Video LectureThe Chesapeake CenterThe VillagesSupport the Show on PatreonDig into the podcast Shownotes Database (00:00) - Welcome to Taking Control: The ADHD Podcast (02:51) - Support the Show at patreon.com/theadhdpodcast (03:22) - Introducing Dr. Kathleen Nadeau (04:19) - How Does ADHD Evolve as we Age?

EP. 211: In this episode, I'm sitting down with UK-based women's health practitioner Adele Winslett to talk about the intersection of ADHD, neurodivergence, and the hormonal rollercoaster of perimenopause. It's a raw, honest conversation about what happens when estrogen dips and the brain fog sets in and why you're absolutely not alone. We also explore how midlife can unmask long-standing ADHD and neurodivergent traits that were once manageable and how this shift can feel both disorienting and illuminating. If you've been silently struggling or questioning what's going on with your mind and body, this episode is a powerful reminder that there's clarity and support on the other side. Topics Discussed:  Can perimenopause make ADHD symptoms worse? What are the signs of ADHD in women over 40? How does estrogen affect brain function and focus? Is brain fog during menopause linked to neurodivergence?

Over the past few weeks there's been speculation over the future of ISAs - Individual Savings Accounts. At the moment each saver can deposit up to £20,000 each tax year into an ISA tax-free, but there have been reports that the Treasury is considering making some changes. Things like lowering the limit to £4,000. In a statement to Money Box the Chancellor Rachel Reeves said that while it's important to support people to save, they want to get the balance right. She wants to create "more of a culture in the UK of retail investing." What does that mean and what might change?Some listeners have been experiencing delays after trying to boost their state pension by filling old gaps in their National Insurance record. At the moment a window is open for people who have not yet reached pension age and those already on the new state pension to fill gaps in their record back as far as 2006. But in just a few weeks time that window will close. The government told us that it's processing payments as quickly as possible and that people who at least take the first step by 5 April will still be able to fill those gaps.Are water companies banned from sending out bills for water used more than 12 months ago as energy suppliers are?

Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the 100th episode of Loving Later Life! This is a first because for this, the 100th episode, I was not prepared at all. It was when talking to a friend who had recently been discovering some of my old writings online that the light bulb sizzled on. As I was describing how I was feeling about this episode, they said to me, “F-you!” And I looked at them and said, “What now?” And they said, “You know, like you wrote in your article!” I really wasn't sure what they were referring to until I did an investigative search into my archives, and there it was. There was what was meant to be my message for myself and for you, for this 100th episode of Loving Later Life. As always, I hope you will listen and share with anyone who needs to hear it. I also want to take this moment to thank you for continuing to invite me into your car, your ears, and your bathroom as you're getting ready for the day. I am truly honored.

Love is the foundation of a happy and enduring home. However, a house is not merely the foundation only. On top of that foundation are the walls of trust and commitment. These walls contain within the house such elements (and interior dressings) as fondness and admiration, turning towards each other (not away), maintaining a positive outlook, properly managing conflict, making life dreams come true (together), and creating shared meaning. The challenges faced in marriage, however, are often the result of Marital Myths. Connect with me --> https://drmatmonharrell.bio.link/Written by Dr. Matmon HarrellReferences Carr, D., Freedman, V., Cornman, J., & Schwarz, N.

Bruce has an MFA in Poetry from Sarah Lawrence College. He lives in Sharon, MA. Key Takeaways Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to adapt and change throughout an individual's life. By learning to adapt and make intentional choices, older adults can experience greater purpose, joy, personal growth, and improved cognitive function. Challenging your brain with new things is one of the most important components of brain health. Life planning is about being intentional. It's about looking at yourself, your values, strengths, motivations, unrealized dreams, and asking, "What do I want to do with this one precious life, or what's left of it?" "What kind of legacy do I want to leave?" Planning isn't boxing yourself in, it's about opening to possibilities and protecting yourself. You will inevitably make worse choices in a crisis. We internalize ageism and it colors the stories we tell ourselves about aging, about ourselves and others. The best defense against the “army of D's” (disease dependence, decline, dementia, death) is awareness of internalized ageist narratives.

What are your dreams, your passion, your vision, your purpose? Do you feel like these are slipping away as you get older, or is it just too overwhelming to figure out? Here's the truth: you're still alive, which means you're still on a mission. You just might not see the opportunities waiting for you.In this episode of Your Biggest Breakthrough, David McNally joins us to reveal how imagination fuels possibility, why contribution is the key to fulfillment, and how even grief can coexist with gratitude.

Genesis 25 provides a transitional chapter in the Bible, weaving together the concluding events of Abraham's life and the beginning of the stories of his descendants, especially Isaac, Jacob, and Esau. Here's an in-depth overview: 1. Abraham's Later Life and Death (Verses 1-11) •Marriage to Keturah: After Sarah's death, Abraham marries Keturah, and they have several children: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah. These children become the ancestors of various groups, expanding Abraham's lineage beyond Isaac and Ishmael. •Inheritance Decisions: While Abraham provides gifts to his children with Keturah, he ensures that Isaac is the primary heir, symbolizing God's promise passing through Isaac. •Death and Burial: Abraham dies at 175, “full of years,” and is buried by his sons Isaac and Ishmael in the cave of Machpelah, where Sarah was also laid to rest. •Blessing of Isaac: Following Abraham's death, God blesses Isaac, reaffirming the covenant through him. 2. The Genealogy of Ishmael (Verses 12-18) •Descendants: The chapter lists the twelve sons of Ishmael, fulfilling God's promise that Ishmael would become the father of twelve princes, leading to distinct tribes and nations. •Settlement: Ishmael's descendants spread from Havilah to Shur, creating a vast network of tribes east of Egypt. •Death of Ishmael: Ishmael lives to be 137 and dies, marking a transition in the narrative focus from his line to that of Isaac. 3. Birth of Esau and Jacob (Verses 19-26) •Isaac and Rebekah's Struggle with Infertility: Isaac prays for his wife Rebekah, who is barren, and God answers, allowing her to conceive. •Prophecy of the Twins: During her pregnancy, Rebekah feels great struggle within her womb and seeks God's guidance. God tells her that she is carrying two nations, foreshadowing the intense rivalry between her sons. God also reveals that the older (Esau) will serve the younger (Jacob), reversing traditional expectations of inheritance and status. •The Birth: Esau, the firstborn, is described as red and hairy. Jacob follows, holding Esau's heel, symbolizing his eventual role in surpassing Esau. 4. Esau Sells His Birthright to Jacob (Verses 27-34) •Growing Personalities: Esau becomes a skillful hunter, embodying a rugged, impulsive spirit, while Jacob is more reserved, staying close to the tents. •Parental Favoritism: Isaac favors Esau, likely due to his hunting skills, while Rebekah favors Jacob, setting up a future family dynamic filled with tension and favoritism. •The Birthright Exchange: One day, Esau returns from the field, famished, and begs Jacob for some of his lentil stew. Jacob seizes the opportunity to negotiate, asking Esau to sell his birthright (his position as firstborn) in exchange for the food. Driven by hunger and impatience, Esau agrees, disregarding the significance of his inheritance. This impulsive decision foreshadows future conflicts and Esau's disregard for his privileged role in the family. Key Themes and Insights in Genesis 25 •God's Faithfulness and Covenant: The chapter continues to highlight God's unwavering commitment to the covenant with Abraham, as it now passes to Isaac and prepares to be carried on through Jacob. •The Role of Free Will and Destiny: Esau's decision to sell his birthright reflects themes of free will, while God's prophecy to Rebekah suggests that destiny and divine will also shape human events. •Family Dynamics and Rivalry: The favoritism shown by Isaac and Rebekah introduces the tension that will later develop between Jacob and Esau, symbolizing the complex relationships that will define Israel's story. Genesis 25 serves as a foundational text for understanding the unfolding story of Israel, focusing on the covenant lineage and God's sovereign plan, while also presenting the human choices and conflicts that shape biblical history.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sendme-radio--732966/support.

Send us a textThe key considerations for staying healthy, happy, and enjoying the second half of life can be related to various age-old Japanese philosophical concepts of well-being. For example, Ikigai, a popular concept talked about and used widely today, is not new. It has existed in Japanese culture, along with the other concepts, as far back as the Heian period, 794-1185.    Okinawa, Japan, a renowned "blue zone,” region whose inhabitants live to a happy, healthy, vibrant old age regularly follow and practice these beliefs in their daily lives.  Renée visited the area in the 1980s while living in Japan and observed and learned many of these simple well-being exercises and spiritual beliefs from the people there, enough for her to create a well-being roadmap on how to use them to enhance health, happiness, and longevity. She noticed that not just in Okinawa, but throughout Japan, these philosophical concepts for well-being were actively embraced by the older population.  When Renée returned home, she incorporated her roadmap, based on these well-being concepts, into her counseling practice to guide her clients through the stresses related to aging and retirement.  In this episode, you will discover: the five most prominent Japanese philosophical practices for helping to enrich health, happiness and success in the second half of life.  simple steps to create an ongoing practice to include each of these powerful, ancient Japanese concepts in your daily activities.About Renée Rosenberg:Renée Lee Rosenberg, MA, Positivity Pro, is a  Career Management Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Emotional Intelligence Coach and Intergenerational Communication Speaker who works with organizations and individuals to foster engagement, multi-generational understanding, well-being, and career happiness at work.  An eighteen-year member of NSA-US, Renée presents virtually and in-person, and has been interviewed in media, print, and online (ABC Eyewitness News, MSNBC, Italian TV, and Forbes.com, to name a few).Renée lived in Japan in the 1980s where she studied Japanese metal making, worked for fashion designer Kansai Yamamoto and met David Bowie.

I've had many incredible women join me in conversation for many Loving Later Life episodes. As you may remember, with each guest, I ask the same 3 questions at the end of each conversation: 1. What for you have been the most rewarding things about getting older? 2. What are some of the most important lessons you have learned in your life. 3. With all that you have learned, what life advice would you pass along? In this anniversary episode I put together a highlight reel of their answers, taking one question at a time. Listening to this again you will be reminded of the wisdom they shared. There is gold in them there conversations! Take a listen and share it forward!  

Dr. Mark Ward, Senior Research Fellow at TILDA discusses their research findings which highlight the increasing rates of loneliness and suicidal thoughts among older people.

Gigi Raven Wilbur is an American bisexual rights activist and writer. They have a bachelor's degree in philosophy and a master's degree in social work. I suspect 50 Shades of Grey has contributed to confusion around what BDSM entails and how it can be used to enhance one's intimate life. I recall upon reading it and all the publicity that ensued upon its publication that there was outrage from those within the BDSM community that their lifestyle choice should be portrayed so inaccurately. Even my kids who knew I dabbled in this world said at the time, “You should go on TV and tell them it's not like this!” The fact is that BDSM (Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission, Sadism and Masochism) has many benefits as Gigi and I discuss during this podcast. It can enhance one's intimate relationships by enabling conversations that touch on consent, power dynamics, pain and sometimes how this may relate to earlier trauma. It can, without any penetration being involved, transport its participants to altered states of consciousness, sometimes called sub-space. And it can be playful, imaginative and fun. In my experience, people I've met in the lifestyle are some of the most open and considerate people I know, for whom consent is paramount and pleasure is key.Gigi is also deeply involved with the BDSM world. Today, she advocates for the healing, cathartic, and spiritual power of BDSM as founder and Sacred Harlot of Aphrodite's Temple. This modern-day sex temple provides sex-positive education and a sex-positive sacred play space for adults. Gigi's book is called The Dominant's Handbook: an Intimate Guide to BDSM Play. Gigi wrote the essay Walking in Shadows: Third Gender and Spirituality about her intersex identity.If you're interested in exploring this further, check out these links:The BDSM Interest Evaluation - https://www.ravenslairleather.com/free-offersThe Dominant's Handbook - An Intimate Guide to BDSM -https://www.ravenslairleather.com/ravenslairbooksAdult Bedtime Stories - https://rss.com/podcasts/adult-bedtime-stories/ Get full access to Sex Advice for Seniors at www.sexadviceforseniors.com/subscribe

(With a current intro and new info)  In this episode, I share how LLL came to be born.

Annnnnnd how it's possible to do, no matter how old you are!

Most of us have some idea what dementia is. Though we toss the word ‘demented' around as a put down, Dementia, and Alzheimers experienced up close is difficult to witness. In part why it is so difficult to watch others go through the decline is because much of it can be avoided entirely by adopting a Low Carb High Fat Ketogenic diet. If there was one specific condition that is most improved by ketones, this would be it. In fact, unlike other conditions that can be improved by a ketogenic diet, taking ketones directly for Alzheimers or dementia has become a gold mind for certain companies that are now in business of creating them. The market for both LCHF Ketogenic diet and for ketones is based on two truths, the rate of Alzheimers is at an all time high and will just increase, and Mild Cognitive Impairment is happening at a younger and younger age. Both demographics can be addressed fairly easily. Listen in to hear how we do that.Sweethearts Forever.

Implications for Cognitive Health during Aging and the Treatment of Alzheimer's Diseasehttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4937039/conclusion:Ketones are the brain's main alternative fuel to glucose and brain ketone uptake is still normal in MCI and in early AD, which would help explain why ketogenic interventions improve some cognitive outcomes in MCI and AD. We suggest that the brain energy deficit needs to be overcome in order to successfully develop more effective therapeutics for AD. At present, oral ketogenic supplements are the most promising means of achieving this goal.A ketogenic drink improves brain energy and some measures of cognition in mild cognitive impairment https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332575159_A_ketogenic_drink_improves_brain_energy_and_some_measures_of_cognition_in_mild_cognitive_impairmentEmulsification Increases the Acute Ketogenic Effect and Bioavailability of Medium-Chain Triglycerides in Humans: Protein, Carbohydrate, and Fat Metabolism. 7-2017https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29955713Conclusions: Emulsification increased the ketogenic effect and decreased side effects in a dose-dependent manner for single doses of MCTs ≤30 g under matching conditions. Further investigation is needed to establish whether emulsification could sustain ketogenesis and minimize side effects and therefore be used as a treatment to change brain ketone availability over a prolonged period of time. —————————COME SAY HI!!! —————————— Facebook Group about Keto: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketonaturopath/ BLOG: https://ketonaturopath.com/ Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/ketonatur

Today my guest is Allie Hill. Allie has been featured on national television, she is a Certified Life Coach and speaker, and used her 15+ years' experience as a journalist to author the book, The Girlfriend's Guide to Empty Nesting.   At first when Allie first reached out to me, I thought that maybe the subject of navigating the changes in life when becoming an empty nester may not be applicable to you all. And I'm here to tell you that I was wrong!  I recently had a month filled with lots of people from my life coming to celebrate my mom and her artistic partner's accomplishment of having their musical produced. There was so much love, support, and so many delicious hugs and conversations. And then it ended, and my ‘nest' felt empty.  We all deal with so many changes in life. The emotions we feel and the skills needed to go through such changes are all very similar.   So without further ado, let's get into it!
