It’s a truism that we all want to live a long and productive life,
but none of us wants to grow older… And while we may say age is
just a number, deep inside most of us harbour secret fears and
perceptions about the meaning of those words “old” &
“ageing”––which we too often equate with failing health, cognitive
decline, and the feeling of being put out to grass because we are
no longer useful or important.

The fact is age discrimination is rampant in many societies and
cultures … And we too are guilty of being ageists simply for
harbouring such negative thoughts. But according to this week’s
guest, there are many hidden treasures and spiritual benefits that
can be found in aging.

Connie Zweig PhD is a retired therapist who is known as a guide who
can go where others fear to tread. A renowned expert in shadow
work, she is co-author of Meeting the Shadow: The Hidden Power of
the Dark Side of Human Nature and Romancing the Shadow:
Illuminating the Dark Side of the Soul, and author of Meeting the
Shadow of Spirituality. Now, in her latest book, The Inner Work of
Age: Shifting from Role to Soul, Connie Zweig is reinventing age by
showing baby boomers how to master late life from the inside out,
and learn that aging can be a spiritual experience that take us
across the threshold from role to soul.
