Contrary to popular belief, life in your 60s isn’t necessarily quiet or relaxing. In fact, if you are like me, you probably find your days filled with activities, people and hobbies. In addition to being as busy as ever, many of us are also facing financial, social or physical stresses. So, at our age, it’s more important than ever to take time to relax.

Today, I want to share some suggestions for how to take it easy, especially with you feel a little stressed out. I’d also love to hear how you relax.

How do you like to relax? Do you love to listen to music? Or, do you perhaps like to spend time in your garden? Are you the kind of person who loves to curl up on the sofa with a good book? Or do you prefer relaxing with your friends and family?

Well, I don’t know about you, but, I woke up feeling great this morning. I just know that it’s going to be a wonderful day! How about you? While we’re on the topic of feeling great, I want to share some habits that each of us should focus on if we want to find lasting happiness. I also have a short message to share about some adjustments that I am making to our Mornings with Sixty and Me programming schedule. Please watch today’s show above. Then, watch the following 2-minute update on our morning show.

Don’t believe the aging stereotypes… most women over 60 care about their appearance. This is the message that I give whenever I meet with someone in the fashion industry.

Today, I would like to ask you what advice you would give to a woman in her 20s or 30s today. What do you wish someone had told you when you were that age?

Perhaps because of the fact that I spent most of my career in marketing, I always notice how bad the marketing to women our age really is. It makes me think that all of the advertising agencies out there are run by young men and women in their 20s and 30s who are relying on tired stereotypes to sell their products. Today, I would like to get your opinion about how companies should market their products to us. Maybe we can force them to make some products that we actually need!
