What if I told you that there's a way to 'live long, die short'? What inspires someone to undertake this mission, and how does it transform the aging process? My guest today is Charles De Vilmorin, co-founder of Linked Senior, an organization dedicated to changing the experience of aging. Linked Senior supports person-centered care through life enrichment and dementia engagement, using technology and non-drug therapy. Together, we talk about a variety of topics including dementia care, ageism, and the quest for purpose in our later years.

We talk about the concept of "live long, die short," We'll also touch upon the vital role of agency and support in senior living, with a focus on empowering families to advocate for their loved ones. We share our perspectives on ageism and how it's a challenge we must confront head-on and that purpose should be a basic human right, regardless of age. 

With a personal connection to the challenges of dementia and a desire to make a positive impact, Charles has dedicated himself to changing the experience of aging and ensuring that every older adult in senior living finds purpose and joy. Thank you, Charles!
