Aging often comes with a familiar story. Many people are told, implicitly or explicitly, that their best years are behind them, that decline is inevitable, and that the only real choices are to stay put until circumstances force a change or to end up in a nursing home. A seminar coming to north Oklahoma City this January challenges that narrative head-on.

The Truth about Getting Older: Going from Surviving to Thriving will be held Thursday, January 15, at the Francis Tuttle Technology Center’s Rockwell campus. Part of the ongoing Senior Living Truth Series, the seminar invites older adults, caregivers, and community members to rethink what later life can look like; what it takes to live it well.
