Imagine having energy and vitality right up to the very end. Imagine not ending up frail, decrepit, or unable to bring your body back to balance because you didn't think it—aging—would happen to you? This week Dr. Andrew Steele is on the show to discuss his new book, "Ageless: The New Science of Getting Older Without Getting Old" and the exciting new scientific discoveries that address what he calls "the greatest humanitarian issue of our time." In this episode you will learn what aging actually is, and how scientists are studying every aspect of the body - DNA, mitochondria, senescent cells, stem cells, our immune systems, even longevity genes to help increase the lifespan of animals tenfold - all in an effort to forestall or even reverse our decline.

He lives in Brooklyn, New York. Learn more about my guest at tomvanderbilt.com "Beginners is ultimately about more than learning. It's about the possibilities that reside in all of us." --Daniel H. Pink, New York Times best-selling author of When, Drive, and To Sell is Human The best-selling author of Traffic and You May Also Like gives us an inspirational journey into the transformative joys that come with starting something new, no matter your age Why do so many of us stop learning new skills as adults? Are we afraid to fail? Have we forgotten the sheer pleasure of being a beginner? Or is it simply a fact that you can't teach an old dog new tricks? Inspired by his young daughter's insatiable need to know how to do almost everything, and stymied by his own rut of mid-career competence, Tom Vanderbilt begins a year of learning purely for the sake of learning. He tackles five main skills (and picks up a few more along the way), choosing them for their difficulty to master and their distinct lack of career marketability--chess, singing, surfing, drawing, and juggling. What he doesn't expect is finding himself having rapturous experiences singing Spice Girls songs in an amateur choir, losing games of chess to eight-year-olds, and dodging scorpions at a surf camp in Costa Rica. Along the way, he interviews dozens of experts to explore the fascinating psychology and science behind the benefits of becoming an adult beginner. Weaving comprehensive research and surprising insight gained from his year of learning dangerously, Vanderbilt shows how anyone can begin again--and, more important, why they should take those first awkward steps. Ultimately, he shares how a refreshed sense of curiosity opened him up to a profound happiness and a deeper connection to the people around him--and how small acts of reinvention, at any age, can make life seem magical.

Use code Podcast to save 20% ABOUT THE BOOK: The 14 essential conversations to have with your tween and early teenager to prepare them for the emotional, physical, and social challenges ahead, including scripts and advice to keep the communication going and stay connected during this critical developmental window. Trying to convince a middle schooler to listen to you can be exasperating. Indeed, it can feel like the best option is not to talk! But keeping kids safe—and prepared for all the times when you can't be the angel on their shoulder—is about having the right conversations at the right time. From a brain growth and emotional readiness perspective, there is no better time for this than their tween years, right up to when they enter high school. Distilling Michelle Icard's decades of experience working with families, FOURTEEN TALKS BY AGE FOURTEEN focuses on big, thorny topics such as friendship, sexuality, impulsivity, and technology, as well as unexpected conversations about creativity, hygiene, money, privilege, and contributing to the family. Icard outlines a simple, memorable, and family-tested formula for the best approach to these essential talks, the BRIEF Model: Begin peacefully, Relate to your child, Interview to collect information, Echo what you're hearing, and give Feedback. With wit and compassion, she also helps you get over the most common hurdles in talking to tweens, including: What phrases invite connection and which irritate kids or scare them off The best places, times, and situations in which to initiate talks How to keep kids interested, open, and engaged in conversation How to exit these chats in a way that keeps kids wanting more Like a Rosetta Stone for your tween's confounding language, FOURTEEN TALKS BY AGE FOURTEEN is an essential communication guide to helping your child through the emotional, physical, and social challenges ahead and, ultimately, toward teenage success. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: The author of Middle School Makeover, her work has been featured in the Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, The Christian Science Monitor, Redbook, Time, and People.

If you are like many adults, you've experienced issues coping with all that the pandemic has brought upon our lives. But children are also being severely impacted. Even before the pandemic started, unprecedented rates of childhood anxiety and depression existed, with one in five children under the age of eighteen diagnosed with a mental health disorder. More kids are affected by mental illness than asthma, peanut allergies, diabetes, and cancer combined. Post pandemic, those numbers are expected to climb even higher. In this episode I sit down with leading child and adolescent psychiatrist and president of Child Mind Institute, Harold Koplewicz, MD, to discuss his timely new book, THE SCAFFOLD EFFECT: Raising Resilient, Self-Reliant, and Secure Kids in the Age of Anxiety (Harmony Books; On-Sale February 2, 2021). He shares a powerful and clinically tested new parenting strategy that will teach competence and resilience in everyday life, as well as prevent and counteract the general anxiety and emotional fragility prevalent in children and teenagers today.

Has the practice of prayer, meditation and gratitude helped you get through this past year? If you're like many mothers, the answer is unequivocally YES. In this wide ranging conversation with best selling faith writer Sarah Bessey, we discuss her new book, "A Rhythm of Prayer" and how during this time of upheaval, stress, and burnout, it's our open communication and connection to God and to each other that has the power to change everything. Featuring writing by Amena Brown, Barbara Brown Taylor, Lisa Sharon Harper, and more. Connect with Sarah at sarahbessey.com, IG @sarahbessey, Facebook @sarahbessey Join the Evolving Faith Community GET THE BOOK For the weary, the angry, the anxious, and the hopeful, this collection of moving, tender prayers offers rest, joyful resistance, and a call to act, written by Barbara Brown Taylor, Amena Brown, Nadia Bolz-Weber, and other artists and thinkers, curated by the author Glennon Doyle calls "my favorite faith writer." It's no secret that we are overworked, overpressured, and edging burnout. Unsurprisingly, this fact is as old as time—and that's why we see so many prayer circles within a multitude of church traditions. These gatherings are a trusted space where people seek help, hope, and peace, energized by God and one another. This book, curated by acclaimed author Sarah Bessey, celebrates and honors that prayerful tradition in a literary form. A companion for all who feel the immense joys and challenges of the journey of faith, this collection of prayers says it all aloud, giving readers permission to recognize the weight of all they carry. These writings also offer a broadened imagination of hope—of what can be restored and made new. Each prayer is an original piece of writing, with new essays by Sarah Bessey throughout. Encompassing the full breadth of the emotional landscape, these deeply tender yet subversive prayers give readers an intimate look at the diverse language and shapes of prayer. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Sarah Bessey is the author of the popular and critically acclaimed books Jesus Feminist, Out of Sorts: Making Peace with an Evolving Faith, and Miracles and Other Reasonable Things.
