Pat Greenberg is back to tell us all about her newest book, It’s OK to Be Old: Thoughtful Acceptance of Your Age.  As we get older, society often treats aging as something to be feared, avoided, or lamented. But in this enlightening book, author Patricia Greenberg offers a refreshing perspective - that getting older can be a positive and liberating experience. She encourages readers to embrace the freedom and wisdom that comes with age, and challenges the negative stereotypes around aging, rejecting the idea that youth equals beauty, relevance, or happiness. Focusing instead on the gifts and opportunities of later life - more time for reflection, deeper relationships, exploring new passions - rather than perceiving it as a period of decline. Through insightful stories, questions and practical exercises, Pat guides readers to let go of regret, appreciate the present, and develop self-compassion. She shares how cultivating authenticity, gratitude, and an openness to change can help transform our experience of aging into one of joy and possibility. Ultimately, It's OK to Be Old inspires readers of all ages to have a more thoughtful and uplifting view of growing older. Pat shows that we can age consciously, creatively, and with intention - in a way that reflects our true values and desires.   PAT’S LINKS: Website Email Pat your questions Buy Pat’s book Facebook YouTube LinkedIn Instagram   Women Beyond a Certain Age is an award-winning weekly podcast with Denise Vivaldo.
