Aging in place is fundamentally about choice and community support, not stubbornness or isolation. A robust network of connections transforms aging at home from merely surviving to genuinely thriving with dignity and independence.
• Strong social connections lead to fewer hospitalizations and longer lives
• Community support makes aging at home more affordable than institutional care
Whether you're an older adult seeking resources, a family member supporting a loved one, or someone interested in strengthening your community, this episode offers both inspiration and practical starting points. Because ultimately, aging is a journey best traveled together.
