Our need and desire for connection doesn’t retire as we grow older. NextAge Season 2 explores love, intimacy, and companionship in the second half of life.

Through personal stories and expert insight, we’re covering topics from digital dating, sex, and changing bodies to medical myths, healing psyches and long-held identities finally coming into full expression. 

Today’s episode kicks off another season of our special series featuring stories and information about growing older in the 21st century — and how Middle Tennesseans are reframing aging. In Tennessee, our population that’s 60-plus now includes the oldest GenXers and is projected to grow by 30% in the next 15 years.

Today, we review some of the stories and topics from last year and how it led to new reporting on what it means to keep falling in love with others — and ourselves.

Guests:

  • LaTonya Turner, news editor & on-air host, WPLN News
  • Natasha Senjanovic, journalist & contributing producer
