Who decided what a “senior” is anyway; and why are we still using that definition? In this episode of TLC, Tend Life Community, we’re rethinking everything we think we know about aging with the leadership team from the Northshore Senior Center.

We talk about how aging today looks very different than it did a generation ago, why the word “senior” may be overdue for a refresh, and how the Northshore Senior Center has become a vibrant hub for connection, purpose, and possibility. From innovative programming to the powerful role philanthropy plays in keeping the center accessible and impactful, this conversation highlights how community support fuels real change at every stage of life.

And because planning for the future isn’t just philosophical, we wrap things up with our Real Estate Roundup, tackling two big questions many people face: when downsizing actually makes sense, and how to decide between aging in place or making a move. Thoughtful, practical, and refreshingly honest, this episode might just change how you think about growing older.
