Shownotes
What if you could live into your 90s with strong muscles, sharp memory, and the energy
to outpace people decades younger? In this inspiring episode of The BeingBrigid Show, I sit down with my 92-year-old grandfather — a man who still swam, hiked, and drove cross-country into his 90s.
In this episode, Grandpa shares the lifelong habits behind his longevity and vitality, including:
- Staying active—through swimming, walking, gardening, push‐ups, and more
- Spending time in nature to de-stress and stay mentally sharp
- Keeping the brain active via reading, puzzles, and curiosity
- Embracing joy and not sweating the small stuff with powerful compartmentalization
- Eating a vibrant, produce-rich diet, minimizing processed foods while still enjoying life
- Wisely using supplements to support health
- Prioritizing safety—like using stair railings and staying hydrated
- Living by his mantra: “Life is not a dress rehearsal,” and making every day count
