Join your hosts Carmen and Sophia Micsa to learn about hacking life after 50 with author Mark Barnes.
Mark Barnes is a longtime educator, entrepreneur, and co-author of Hacking Life After 50: 10 Ways to Beat Father Time and Live a Long, Healthy, Joy-Filled Life. He is on a quest to live past 100 and bring anyone interested along for the ride.
Mark's parents were great models for living a long, meaningful, joy-filled life. They believed in showing up, working hard, and helping people in need. Mark followed their example and became a teacher and a coach. During his nearly 30 years in education, and especially when Mark turned 50, he realized he had a lot more to do in and out of the classroom. Physical and mental well-being and living until and beyond 100 became obsessions. Together with his like-minded friend Jim Sturtevant, Mark decided to share their journeys and everything they know in Hacking Life After 50 with practical strategies to make this happen.
On this Seeds of Sunshine episode:
- Mark wishes to debunk the view of the elderly that they're broken down, that they're diseased, and that they can't.
- Both Mark and Jim learned through education, research, and most importantly practice that people can, in fact, live long, hopefully to 100 or beyond with joy and in good health if that's what they want.
- Longevity is a hot topic nowadays.
- After having learned and practiced, Mark and Jim decided to write their book as various hacks to let everyone out there who has the same similar problems learn how to solve those problems and how to live a long healthy life.
- Some of the hacks: creating purpose, or even maybe recreating purpose.
- Their favorite phrase is "the momentum mindset," which is a set of attitudes devoted to growth.
- Sleep is arguably the most underrated factor in longevity.
