What if “getting older” didn't have to mean managing decline? Today, Michael Clinton explores the new landscape of modern longevity—from culture shifts to cutting-edge science—in Longevity Nation: The People, Ideas, and Trends Changing the Second Half of Our Lives. Then we get practical with health and longevity practitioner Jason Prall, who lays out a grounded, do-this-now roadmap in Beyond Longevity: A Plan for Healing Faster, Feeling Better, and Thriving at Any Age. Two complementary takes on the same question: how do you add years and make those years feel worth living?
“I deliver it with the credibility of having won a district that Trump carried by 13 points. Not only how to speak to these voters, but how to win them back.” — Joe Cunningham Yesterday's guest was Alexandra Natapoff, co-editor of America Unfinished — a collection of essays by illustrious Harvard Law School professors grading the march toward justice in the United States over the last 250 years. America got about a C+ from this progressive clique. “Could do better” their report cards suggested. Today's guest is a very different kind of Democrat. Joe Cunningham is a lawyer and personal injury attorney in Charleston, South Carolina, a one-term US representative, and the author of Life of the Party: How Democrats Lost America's Trust and How They Can Win It Back. Cunningham got his law degree at Northern Kentucky University's Salmon P. Chase College of Law. Harvard, he jokes, was his safety school. In contrast with Harvard Law professors, Cunningham's credibility is hard to dress up. He was the first Democrat to win South Carolina's 1st Congressional District in over forty years, in a seat Trump carried by 13 points. He was also the first Democrat in elected office to publicly warn against Biden seeking re-election. His diagnosis of what went wrong is that the Democratic Party abandoned kitchen-table economic issues in favour of culture wars, dismissed legitimate voter concerns as bigotry, and told people what they should care about rather than listening to what they actually cared about. The party, he argues, replaced empathy with arrogance. It's as if it's been colonized by morally prickly Harvard Law professors. Professor Cunningham gives the Dems a D+. Could do significantly better. Five Takeaways • Winning Trump +13: The Credibility Argument: Cunningham's case for why his diagnosis should be taken seriously is not his ideology but his record. He won South Carolina's 1st Congressional District in 2018 — a heavily gerrymandered seat that Trump had carried by 13 points — making him the first Democrat to hold it in over forty years. He was also the first elected Democrat to publicly warn against Biden seeking re-election. His prescriptions don't come from a think tank or an op-ed page. They come from a man who has actually won where Democrats can't win, and lost where Democrats keep losing. • The Party Replaced Empathy with Arrogance: Cunningham's central diagnosis: the Democratic Party stopped listening and started lecturing. It told people what they should care about — immigration wasn't an issue in West Virginia because West Virginia is far from the border. It told people the economy was fine when they couldn't afford their bills. It dismissed legitimate concerns about crime, immigration, and cultural change as bigotry rather than trying to understand them. The result: voters who felt condescended to left. The party that was founded on speaking for ordinary people no longer speaks their language. • Big Publishing's Progressive Insularity: The book didn't get picked up by a major publisher. Cunningham was told, more or less directly, that a book this critical of the Democratic Party — of Biden, of Harris, of the party's leadership — was too much. He published it himself, through South Battery Press, named for a street in Charleston. Andrew's observation: isn't this itself evidence of what the book argues? If progressive culture controls big media and big publishing, those institutions will inevitably filter out self-criticism and reinforce the insularity that caused the problem in the first place. • The Geriatric Oligarchy and the Technology Frontier: Cunningham uses the phrase “geriatric oligarchy” — the same phenomenon Andrew has been calling a gerontocracy — to describe Congress's inability to grapple with technology, AI, and social media. The vast majority of members of Congress cannot understand the problems that are emerging: social media preying on children, identity theft, artificially inflated prices, the environmental impact of data centres. The party needs new leaders who understand these issues. The answer to data centres is not a blanket ban — it's community-level decisions and proper regulation. • The Party Needs Bloodletting, Not Just Rebrand: Cunningham's sharpest prescription for the Democratic Party: a coming-to-Jesus moment or genuine accountability for what led to 2024. After the debate, Democratic officials stood outside the White House claiming Biden was fine. His staff said he'd go to bed earlier, wake up later, and shorten his workday — as if this would reassure Americans. Cunningham's verdict: lessons will be repeated until they're learned. The party needs a Newsom-level confrontation — real winners and real losers — not the bloodless triangulation it currently offers. Only then can it earn back trust. About the Guest Joe Cunningham is a personal injury attorney and former US Representative from South Carolina's 1st Congressional District, the first Democrat to win that seat in nearly forty years. An attorney and ocean engineer by training, he was the Democratic nominee for Governor of South Carolina in 2022. He is the author of Life of the Party: How Democrats Lost America's Trust and How They Can Win It Back (South Battery Press, May 20, 2026). He lives in Charleston, South Carolina, with his wife Ashley and their children.

“Retirement is a false construct created a hundred years ago by the government. It was basically created when Social Security was born. Prior to that, people worked until they died — because they didn't live as long.” — Michael Clinton At the ripe young age of 70, Michael Clinton hiked nine days to Everest Base Camp and ran the Tenzing-Hillary Marathon down. Now 72, he is president of his own longevity consultancy, a columnist for Esquire and Men's Health, a private pilot, part-owner of a vineyard in Argentina, and the author of Longevity Nation: The People, Ideas, and Trends Changing the Second Half of Our Lives (Atria/Beyond Words, May 5, 2026). Rather than about living forever, Longevity Nation dares us to redefine what the second half of our lives can look like. And Clinton wants us to reinvent society accordingly. A hundred years ago, he reminds us, only seven million Americans were over 65. Today there are 62 million, which will quickly grow to 80 million. The whole world is aging, and its institutions are not keeping up. Retirement, Michael Clinton explains, is a false construct invented a century ago by industrial age governments. Rewire, the septuagenarian marathoner says. Don't retire. Five Takeaways • This Is What 72 Looks Like Today: Clinton's opening provocation: at 70, he hiked to Everest Base Camp and ran the marathon down. He's visited 125 countries, run marathons on all seven continents, holds two master's degrees, and is a private pilot. His point is not to brag. It is that the cultural image of what 70 or 80 looks like has not caught up with the reality of what a subset of 70 and 80-year-olds — and, increasingly, a growing proportion of 70 and 80-year-olds — actually look like and are capable of. When he was 40, 72 seemed ancient. Now he is 72. It doesn't. • GLP-1: Hotel California or Longevity's First Democratised Drug? The sharpest exchange in the interview. Andrew's framing: GLP-1 is Hotel California — you can check in but not check out. Stop taking it and the weight and inflammation return. Clinton's response: yes, that seems to be the story right now, and nobody knows the long-term play. But GLP-1 is coming to Medicare this summer, price cut in half, and it may become the first truly democratised longevity drug — reducing obesity, inflammation, and cardiovascular risk across the income spectrum, not just for the wealthy. Exciting and uncertain in equal measure. • Retirement Is a False Construct: Social Security was created at a moment when most Americans died before collecting it. Life expectancy was 62. The retirement age was 65. The construct was built for a world that no longer exists. Clinton's prescription: don't retire. Rewire. You don't have to do the same thing, but do something. Stay engaged. Stay purposeful. If you're 65 and live another thirty years, the retirement construct — move to Florida, play golf, wait — is not merely insufficient. It is actively harmful to cognitive and physical health. • Longevity Nation vs Gerontocracy: Andrew raises the counter-argument: is longevity nation actually gerontocracy? Trump, Biden, Trump. Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Nancy Pelosi. A class of elderly people who won't step aside, hoarding power and preventing generational renewal. Clinton's response: he is opposed to formal retirement ages for anyone. His answer to the political hoarding of power is not age limits but engagement — people need purpose, and purpose should be redirected, not cut off. Andrew's unspoken counter: this is easy to say when you're not the one being blocked by an eighty-year-old senator. • Who Do You Want Around Your Deathbed? Clinton's most personal observation, via the book he co-authored: as you think about living longer, ask yourself — who are the five people you would want around your deathbed? And are you maintaining those relationships? The grandson of a funeral director, Clinton has a different relationship with death than most. His prescription: the longer you live, the more important it becomes to keep your closest relationships strong. Longevity without community is not longevity. It is just duration.

Michael Clinton is the former president and publishing director of Hearst Magazines and is currently special media advisor to the Hearst Corporation's CEO. If you don't know which magazines Hearst owns, here are a few: Cosmopolitan, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Esquire, Good Housekeeping, Country Living, Women's Health, Men's Health, Popular Mechanics, Car and Driver, and O, The Oprah Magazine. Michael is also a regular columnist for Men's Health, and his work has been featured in Forbes, Oprah Daily, Esquire, Elle, and on CBS Mornings. Michael has traveled through over a hundred countries, has run marathons on seven continents, is a private pilot, part owner of a vineyard in Argentina, has started a nonprofit foundation, holds two master's degrees, and still has a long list of life experiences that he plans to tackle. He is also the author of the book, Longevity Nation. Michael currently resides in New York and Santa Fe, New Mexico. In this episode we discuss the following: Movement is medicine. Not the pharmacy kind, but the kind we build into our life, day after day, year after year. Longevity isn't something reserved for the genetically lucky, but rather a choice we can make. And given that people are living longer than ever, it has never been more important to take care of ourselves. It's never too late to start getting healthy. Michael takes inspiration from 100 year old marathon runner who started running in his 80s. We can avoid the midlife crisis by recognizing it as an opportunity. If we're going to live longer, then we're not winding down… we're just getting to halftime. And that means there's still time to rebuild, improve, and re-invest in a better version of ourselves.
Nothing like a fast-moving, inspiring, laugh-filled conversation about living longer, living louder… and refusing to sit quietly on the sidelines of life. That's exactly what happened on this week's Wellness Wednesday edition of Keeping the "Live" in Alive! when I welcomed powerhouse guest Michael Clinton to The Debbie Nigro Show. Michael — former president of Hearst Magazines and now founder of Roar Forward — joined me fresh off the launch of his bestselling new book, Longevity Nation, which was just selected by the prestigious Next Big Idea Club as one of the books expected to shape conversations for the year ahead. And honestly? I can see why. We're Not Just Living Longer… We're Living DIFFERENTLY Michael shared a staggering reality: "If you're 65 and healthy, you may be living another 30 years." That changes EVERYTHING. Career paths. Relationships. Retirement. Housing. Friendships. Purpose. Health. Identity. Michael explained how countries like Japan already adapted to this "new longevity" mindset far faster than the United States — with cultures intentionally built around connection, community, and aging with dignity and engagement. One statistic that stopped me cold? "Today's five-year-old has a 50% chance to live to 100." Whoa. The Loneliness Problem Nobody Wants to Talk About One of the most powerful parts of our conversation centered around loneliness — a major theme featured in a recent excerpt from Michael's book. Michael talked about how intentional human connection has become critical in longer lives. And one of Michael's BEST lines of the interview? "Texting doesn't count. You need flesh and blood togetherness." YES. He encouraged people to schedule connection, make friendships multi-generational, travel together, gather more often, and stop assuming social interaction will magically happen on its own. I loved hearing about his adventure travel community and how they intentionally stay connected in real life — not just online. Meet the "Re-Imagineers" One of my favorite concepts from Michael's work is what he calls the "Re-Imagineers." These are people over 50 who suddenly realize: "I may have another 25–30 GOOD years ahead of me… now what?" And instead of slowing down, they're: launching businesses learning new skills going back to school traveling creating starting second careers falling in love again reinventing themselves completely Basically… my kind of people. Michael pointed out that older entrepreneurs are often MORE successful because they have wisdom, relationship capital, industry knowledge, and perspective younger founders may not yet have. I nearly jumped out of my chair because I've been saying this forever: "Magic happens in the balance of talents between youth and wisdom." - Debbie Nigro Bottom Line? This wasn't a conversation about aging. It was a conversation about POSSIBILITY. About purpose. About staying curious. About refusing to emotionally retire from life. About finding new reasons to wake up excited. As Michael said so beautifully, this generation is rewriting the script for what life after 50, 60, 70 — and beyond — can look like. Enjoy this inspiring and important conversation with Michael Clinton, author of Longevity Nation on "Keeping the 'Live' in 'Alive'! on The Debbie Nigro Show. It's important insight into how the world of living longer has changed. It's about living longer with purpose, fighting loneliness, reinvention after 50, and why the "Re-Imagineers" are redefining aging.
In this episode of Future Shop, Wendy Liebmann sits down with renaissance man and ROAR Forward founder Michael Clinton to discuss his latest book, Longevity Nation.

ROAR: Michael Clinton on Why It's Time to Stop Acting Old—and Start Living Loud Again The Truth About Aging No One Tells You—and What to Do About It Now Today's episode is brought to you by Wayfair, Every Style Every Home. We don't talk enough about what happens after success. In my latest conversation with Michael Clinton—former President of Hearst Magazines and author of ROAR Into the Second Half of Your Life—we explored a question many professionals quietly face: What now? For decades, the narrative has been clear—work hard, achieve, and then eventually step aside. But what if that model no longer fits the reality of longer, more active lives? Michael offers a different perspective: don't retire—refire. What stood out most is how often limitation isn't physical—it's psychological. Many people begin to scale back not because they have to, but because they believe they should. The real shift is internal. Moving from external validation to internal alignment. From what looks impressive… to what actually feels meaningful. If you're in the second half of your career—or thinking about what comes next—this conversation may challenge more than your plans. It may challenge your assumptions.
In this episode of the Glowing Older podcast, host Nancy Griffin interviews Michael Clinton, founder and CEO of Roar Forward. They discuss his book Roar Into the Second Half of Your Life, and the concept of New Longevity. Clinton shares insights on reimagining life after 50, the importance of health span over lifespan, and the evolving role of age inclusivity in society and business. The conversation also touches on the impact of ageism, the significance of travel, and the need for continuous learning and personal growth. About Michael Michael Clinton, in partnership with Hearst, is founder and CEO of ROAR Forward, a business-to-business intelligence, insights and content platform. ROAR Forward's primary focus is the new demographic segment of individuals aged 50+who are redefining the second half of life in their careers, passions and lifestyles. ROAR Forward offerings include the ROAR Report with proprietary data and research, bulletins, seminars, workshops, along with original content and events that shed light on the dynamically changing market demographic of individuals aged 50-plus who now comprise 35% of the population. Clinton serves on the board of The Stanford Center on Longevity and is a globally recognized speaker about the New Longevity. In December 2023, he was named to Estee Lauder's first-ever Longevity Collective, a curated group of influential experts and global pioneers in longevity science and lifestyle. Clinton's best-selling book, ROAR into the second half of your life, now in its fourth printing, is the springboard for ROAR Forward. As a contributing writer for Esquire, Men's Health and Oprah Daily, Clinton frequently covers the topic of the new longevity movement. In 2024, Men's Health named Clinton “the pivot pioneer” in a feature about the 5 men leading the longevity conversation. In May 2019, Clinton was named senior media advisor to the CEO of Hearst after 21 years at the company. Previously, he was president of marketing & publishing director of Hearst Magazines and was a member of the board of directors of Hearst Corporation. Prior to that, Clinton was executive vice president of Condé Nast Publications. Key Takeaways The New Longevity is about reinventing, reimagining, and rethinking the second half of life. Healthspan plus Wealthspan equals a great Lifespan.The acronym for ROAR is, the R, the reimaginationprocess. O own your numbers. A the action plan, a program that we call life layering, and the final R is your relationships, reassessing the people around you in the second half of life.The huge population of 50-plus impacts company and brands strategies, marketing and advertising, society and culture and infrastructure. Thirty five percent of the US population is currently 50 plus, with 60 million people 65 or older, growing to 80 million by 2040. To put into perspective, 100 years ago there were only seven million people over 65 in the US. Advertising needs to be age inclusive. Imagery and messaging in advertising reinforces ageist thinking, which becomes self-imposed ageism.
Setting timers. Downloading apps. Standing desks. Getting up at 5am. A new week, a new productivity ‘hack'. But is chasing productivity actually helping us to get more done? Or simply giving us more to do? Feeling productive can mean different things on different days. Sometimes it's flying through our to-do list. Sometimes it's spending hours thinking of an idea that will go on to change everything. But do we value one type of productivity more than the other? And could doing so be holding us back? Solving the productivity puzzle seems like it could benefit everyone, so how do we do it? Does getting more done really come down to where and when we work? What role can AI and technology play in boosting productivity? How does company culture affect our output? And where can businesses and leaders invest their resources to help improve productivity in a way that works for all of us? That's what we're exploring with guests Professor Michael Clinton, Professor of Work Psychology at King's College London and Deloitte partner, Shivani Maitra, in this episode of The Green Room, as we ask: What's the secret to doing our best work?

"What is it that brings you fulfillment and satisfaction, outside of work and family commitments?" That's the question Michael Clinton asks his readers in order to help jump-start their reinvention. After over 40 years in magazine publishing, including roles the publisher of GQ and president and publishing director of Hearst Magazines, Clinton felt that his life was missing “something”. He started to examine the possibility of a dynamic second half of life and decided to take action. For the last 25 years, Clinton has been running marathons all over the world, climbing mountains, flying planes; he has become a photographer and a philanthropist. His reinvention led him to back to school at 60 and inspired him to write a new book, “ROAR: Into Your Life (Before It's Too Late)”. Clinton interviews 40 people from all walks of life about how and why they chose self-reinvention–and the tools they used to get there. In this conversation with CoveyClub founder, Lesley Jane Seymour, he shares the tools to overcome the two biggest challenges most people face when trying to reinvent, a practice for connecting to what you really want, and the one word in the English language we desperately need to get rid of. FREE GIFT! Don't start your reinvention without downloading CoveyClub's starter guide called “31 Badass Tips for Launching Your Reinvention Without Fear!” Bio: hael Clinton is a best-selling author, new longevity expert, thought leader, and keynote speaker on the changing face of what it means to live longer. He is also a writer-at-large for Esquire, and regular columnist for Men's Health.

As disruption impacts many industries, mid-career professionals must navigate change and consider its future impact. Likewise, the post-career population faces transformation, and needs to prepare financially, logistically, or emotionally for the next phase of their lives. Michael urges us to view this transition through a progressive lens: don't retire, but rather rewire or re-fire toward a happier, more productive next chapter. And end self-imposed ageism; focus instead on self-driven growth-ism – to fulfill dreams, and plan new experiences, travel, relationships, and more. Michael's mission is to help others shape a second half of life full of joy, purpose, learning, and fulfillment. Packed with practical tips and insightful research, his new book ROAR into the second half of your life (before it's too late) and our conversation offer ways to optimize our lives and realize our most important goals. Michael is a testament to this process, applying it himself to pursue a diverse and richly layered life. Rising from working class roots to a successful career in magazine publishing, he also enjoys other “lives” as a photographer, pilot, philanthropist, marathon runner, and winemaker. This is the master class and the textbook for learning how to live your life in full.

I can run a marathon at 70. I can go back to school at 60. I can fall in love again at 80.' Get rid of that cloak of ageism and your courage will be enhanced.”“My plan for when I turn 70 is to hike to the Everest base camp and run a marathon down which is an annual event that happens every May… What I'm hoping to do from that experience is show that this is what you can do at 70.” “Today's 5 year old in the U.S., if they're healthy, had good prenatal, and early childhood development, 50% of them have the opportunity to live to 100. That's astounding!” “There are about 90,000 people in the U.S. that are 100 right now. By the year 2100 the projection is there will be 3,000,000 in the U.S. and that there will be 19,000,000 around the world.”Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods.Connect with Michael:WebsiteTwitterInstagramFacebookMichael's non-profit organization: Circle of Generosity

Lindsay Pinchuk was put on my path for a reason and I couldn't be happier. She is a master entrepreneur/founder that is here to give us the confidence to believe that even if we are over 50, it is never too late to start your own business.Takeaways:1. It is NEVER too late to make a change or to start a new business! It doesn't matter how old you are.2. Look to fill a need or a void for your community or for a brand.3. Starting a successful business doesn't happen overnight. You have to SHOW UP every day.4. The sooner you can put the wheels into motion on something you want to do, the better. Start while you still have financial security. Make a plan and be strategic. A lot of times you have big pieces in place for a new business before you even leave your old career.5. Do one thing a day to forward your business, your idea, your passion project, your side hustle.6. To get clarity ask yourself what do you love? what feels your bucket? Think about how you can build a business out of your passions?7. When starting a business, the first thing you want is to have a flexible blueprint. You need to be able to adapt if things don't go right. Take inventory of what it's going to take to build this business.8. Determine how you going to make money - what are your revenue streams going to be? And what you are operations going to look like? 9. Work on branding, but don't pour a lot of money into it. Pick a name and some colors. There are many free or close to free design apps and sites available online. Buy a domain.10. Talk to financial advisor or planner about legitimizing your business. When you start collecting money money it's important that you are set up to pay taxes correctly.11. Build your community. You have your personal community of people you choose to be around - Then you have your business community that you trust with business questions and networking. 12. You want a community over an audience. An audience receives only, but a community offers back and forth communication.13. With a legit community, your business becomes the center of the conversation. 14. You have to show up as yourself and be totally authentic with your community. People will see right through you if you aren't.15. Be supportive of other women in business. There is no reason to be jealous or stingy with information/resources, there is always ENOUGH to go around. And when you make other women around you successful, that success always comes back to you.Some recommendations from Lindsay:Book: ROAR Michael Clinton at Amazon: https://amzn.to/3fHPESUDomain: Go Daddy, SquareSpaceBusiness Advisor Online: Zen BusinessGraphic Art: CanvaCreate a Product Line: PietraHow to find Lindsay:Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/lindsaypincukInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/dearfoundherPodcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dear-foundher/id1591976277Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/dearfoundher/How to find ME:Website: https://llmcshane.comInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/lesleylmcshaneTNOY Private Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thenewoldyou/Imposter Syndrome Freebie: https://www.subscribepage.com/10-ways-to-disrupt-imposter-syndrome
