About Us

💌 From the Editors:

 

Turning 50 is no longer seen as the end, but a new beginning! In the era of longer and healthier lives, reaching 50 is a celebration of thriving rather than slowing down.

​

This has given rise to the concept of “thriving at 50 and beyond”, where individuals are actively embracing their golden years and making the most out of them.

​

The traditional concept of 50 being the age of retirement has become a thing of the past. With advancements in healthcare and technology, people are living longer and leading more active lifestyles well into their 50s, 60s, and beyond.

​

Advancements in healthcare and technology empower individuals to redefine aging, with 50 becoming a milestone marked by vitality and opportunity. 

​

Our generation X is perhaps the first ever generation who are stepping into the age of 50 as the new Golden Age. According to studies, 50-60-year olds today can expect to live to 120 years, while the elderly can expect to live to 100, and younger people can expect to live beyond 120 years!! 

​

So this is all very new, uncharted territory for us to explore! 

​

The  biggest myth about aging is the ‘misery myth’, that people are destined to become more unhappy as they age, “it’s-all-downhill-from-here” point of view. But the stats show that mental health issues are worse at younger ages, and in fact people become happier as they age - less sad, less frustrated, and less angry!  

​

A growing number of experts say it’s possible to thrive and flourish in those later years if we take the right steps now. The doom-and-gloom approach blocks our creative thinking about how living longer could help us live better throughout our lives. After all, you can't achieve what you can’t envision. 

​

With this novel concept of Thriving at 50 and Beyond in mind,  Nick and I are starting our journey on how to thrive as you age, and how to live to 120 and beyond and love it.  😀

We are inviting you to join us! 🙂

​

Yours,
