Aging Like a Legend: Joy, Strength & Defying Ageism with Lorraine Laddish
If you’ve ever felt afraid of aging, struggled with getting older, or worried your best years are behind you… this conversation will change everything.
On this week’s episode of the Mamas Con Ganas Podcast, Valentina sits down with the unforgettable Lorraine Laddish — author, digital entrepreneur, yoga teacher, creator of Aging Like a Legend, and a vibrant force redefining what it means to grow older.
Lorraine opens up about losing everything at 45, rebuilding her life from scratch, overcoming depression, finding love again at 46, and discovering a deeper confidence in her 50s and 60s than she ever had in her twenties. She shares how she stays mentally sharp, emotionally grounded, spiritually connected, and physically strong — and why she believes she hasn’t peaked yet at 62.
