In this heartfelt episode of Wellness Wednesday, Beth, Robin, and Jeff tackle the often-overlooked topic of isolation as we age—especially for those living with disabilities. They explore how life transitions, loss of social circles, and the rise of technology can deepen loneliness, even while offering more independence. With personal stories, practical tips, and a splash of humor, the trio encourages listeners to take small steps—like making a phone call or joining a virtual meetup—to reconnect and rediscover joy in community. Aging with purpose, courage, and curiosity might just start with one brave “hello.
