Aging has a strange way of distorting our expectations. On one hand, modern culture celebrates “active aging” and shows images of people in their 70s running marathons or climbing mountains. On the other, there’s a quiet assumption that growing older automatically means becoming fragile, dependent, or mentally slower. The truth lies somewhere in between. Healthy aging isn’t about extreme achievements. It’s about something much simpler — the ability to move through everyday life with independence, clarity, and self-trust. From a psychological and physical health perspective, certain ordinary abilities become powerful indicators of long-term resilience as we age. They reveal how…

For the first time, the FDA has expanded approval of Addyi (flibanserin) to women over 50, including those who are postmenopausal, marking a major breakthrough in women’s sexual health.

It’s a silent epidemic that robs people of their memories, independence, and dignity, while draining billions of dollars from the health care system. It has an immeasurable toll on their loved ones, who then vowed, “never me.” Symptom Masking or Root Cause Treatment?

Lately, I can’t stop testing vintage recipes. Something feels deeply satisfying about revisiting cooking and baking methods from decades past. Recently, my editor pointed me toward a Reddit post about a Betty Crocker cookie recipe from 1963. I didn’t hesitate to give it a try. Betty Crocker’s Peanut Butter Quickies quickly became a new obsession. The recipe calls for just four ingredients and highlights one of my all-time favorite cookie staples: peanut butter. Still, a few concerns lingered. While some vintage recipes deliver big on flavor, others miss the mark. With so few ingredients, questions popped up about texture and…

People are living longer than ever, but not always better. There’s a 13-year gap between lifespan and “healthspan,” the years we spend in good health. Closing that gap is one of the biggest opportunities of our time. AARP CEO Dr. Myechia Minter-Jordan recently outlined five lessons for aging well: recharge your mind daily, move your body, set new goals, think beyond retirement, and build community. Each one matters. And interestingly, joining a gym can support all five. Recharge your mind: Structured workouts create natural moments for reflection, calm, and stress relief. Move your body: Regular workouts make daily movement easier,…

If you’ve been following along on our blog for a while—or maybe over on Instagram—you’ll know that I often talk about parents worrying that their kids are fussy eaters, especially when it comes to vegetables.

Even in my own home, with my four kids, veggies have often been the trickiest food group to navigate. There are plenty of reasons for this. The texture can be challenging for kids, and the slightly bitter flavor makes other foods much more appealing. That’s why I…
