In this episode of *Aging & Spirituality*, Cathy Lee Taylor and Chris Jensen explore one of the most important questions we can ask ourselves as we grow older: *What am I choosing?* It's easy to say we want more peace, deeper Relationships, greater spiritual connection, or a more fulfilling life. But our lives are shaped not by what we say we want, but by what we consistently give our attention to. Together, we discuss how attention becomes a creative force in our lives, why awareness is the first step toward change, and how aging offers a unique opportunity to become more intentional ab…

The Return of the Feminine Aging, Spirituality & Coming Home to Yourself After 60 What if aging isn't about losing your power—but reclaiming it? In this episode of the Aging & Spirituality Podcast, Cathy Lee Taylor and CJ explore the return of the feminine and why so many women over 60 are feeling called to slow down, soften, and reconnect with themselves. For decades, many women learned to survive by being strong, productive, self-reliant, and endlessly capable. While those qualities served a purpose, they often came at the cost of emotional connection, rest, intuition, creativit…

Today’s topic is both empowering and, if we’re honest, a little confronting: You actually can create your life and your world. Do you want better days? Better years? A better world—not just “out there,” but right here in your own experience? There’s a powerful teaching often attributed to Buddha: the state of the outer world reflects our inner state. When we look around today, it’s easy to feel like things are chaotic, divided, uncertain. But this teaching invites a different response—not withdrawal, but responsibility. Because if the outer world reflects the inner… then c…

What if being alone isn’t the problem… but the doorway? In this episode of *Aging & Spirituality*, CLT and CJ explore a quieter, more honest truth about loneliness—especially in seasons of life marked by change. When a Marriage ends, children leave home, or life simply becomes still, something deeper surfaces beneath the silence: Who am I in my own company? This conversation moves beyond surface-level ideas of mindset and into the lived reality of your internal world—your body, your patterns, and the relationship you’ve been practicing with yourself for a lifetime. We talk ab…

What if the very thoughts that feel most “real” are quietly shaping a smaller life than the one you’re meant to live? In this episode of Aging & Spirituality, we explore the subtle, often invisible forces that keep us stuck—what we call “nummers” and “distractors.” These are the internal narratives that sound logical but quietly limit what we believe is possible… and the everyday habits that keep us too busy or too numbed out to question them. As we move through life, especially in our later years, we’re told it’s time to slow down, to be realistic, to accept what i…

There was a time—not so long ago—when a woman’s life was largely defined before she ever had the chance to question it. Roles were prescribed. Choices were limited. And much of what was expected lived quietly beneath the surface, shaping identity without ever being named. Today, we live in a world that looks radically different on the outside. More freedom, more voice, more autonomy. And yet… some of that early cultural programming didn’t disappear. It simply evolved, softened, and in many ways, became internalized. In this episode, we’re exploring the invisible inheritance pas…

Deep Relaxation, Acceptance, and the Spiritual Wisdom of Growing Older What if one of the greatest spiritual strengths we can develop as we age is not striving… but contentment? In this episode of the Aging & Spirituality Podcast, we explore the often misunderstood power of deep relaxation and contentment as foundations for emotional balance, spiritual maturity, and inner peace. As the years unfold, life naturally changes. Our bodies shift, roles evolve, and the pace of living softens. Yet beneath those changes lies an invitation—to become steadier, wiser, and more grounded in who w…

That sentence can feel uncomfortable — but it’s powerful information. In this episode, Cathy Lee Taylor and Chris Jensen explore the difference between reacting from old wounds and responding from inner authority. Triggers aren’t about the comment, the tone, or the forgotten birthday. They’re about the emotional charge inside us. And in midlife, those charges become harder to ignore. In the second half of life, peace no longer comes from controlling others. It comes from regulating ourselves. We talk about how to pause before reacting, how to understand what your nervous system is p…

Today we’re exploring something subtle… and powerful. What does it actually mean to age without getting old? Not cosmetically. Not by denying reality. Not by pretending time isn’t passing. But inwardly. Because aging begins long before the body changes. It begins in attention. When you walk into a room, what do you look for? What’s wrong? What’s irritating? What’s missing? Or… What’s alive? What’s working? What’s meaningful? This habit of perception quietly shapes how we experience our years. In this episode, we explore four gentle but transformative practices that h…

Today’s episode we’re talking about something that can feel both liberating and honestly… a little unsettling. It’s that moment when you realize: the version of you that built your life… doesn’t fully fit anymore. Your mind knows you’ve changed… but your heart hasn’t caught up yet. And that internal tension can feel exhausting. In this episode, we’re going to explore how harmony is built when your mind and heart finally come into agreement, and I’ll share three practical ways to start creating that kind of inner coherence—without forcing yourself, fixing yourself, or …

As a new year begins, many of us feel a familiar mix of hope, reflection, and quiet pressure. Pressure to improve, to set goals, to do more or be more. But what if this season is inviting something different? In this episode, Letting Go to Begin Again: Inner Peace Through Renunciation, we explore a gentler and deeply human path forward. Instead of adding more intentions, we turn toward the practice of letting go. Drawing from yogic wisdom and lived experience, this conversation reframes renunciation not as withdrawal from life, but as a compassionate settling of the mind. We look at how desi…

Aging invites us into a new relationship with time — not the clock, but the soul. In this episode, Cathy shares a quiet but powerful experience of connecting with her future self… the version of her who’s wiser, freer, unburdened by doubt, and fully aligned with spirit. Through that connection, she discovers a truth many of us forget as we grow older: we are already the perfect person, in the perfect place, at the perfect time. This episode offers comfort for the holiday season, a pathway to ease fear about the aging body, and a tender practice for collapsing the distance between who …
