What if we stopped viewing aging as a decline — and started seeing it as evolution?

In this episode, Kris and Rachel apply Grateful Not Greedy™️ to unpack Rachel’s experience with her mom and the subtle ways society (and adult children) can innocently devalue their aging parents by comparing them to who they “used to be.” We explore the damaging myth that older adults are simply diminished versions of their younger selves — and how that mindset leads to impatience or frustration.

Instead, we talk about how to shift from comparison to compassion. From control to connection. From greed to gratitude.

This episode is a call to see aging parents not as fading reflections of the past, but as full, worthy people in their present — with a different presentation, new wisdom to share, their dignity to protect, and love that still runs deep.

Because aging isn’t a malfunction. It’s a masterpiece in progress.

Whether you’re newly single, burnt out, or just losing energy to the apps, this upbeat episode is your reminder that dating doesn’t have to break you— it can build you!
