You look great for your age. I didn’t think you were a day over 40. You’re too experienced. I think we need someone with more tech experience. Good for you for starting a business at your age. Do you still play basketball? I can’t believe how fabulous your skin looks, what do you use?

These statements may seem like innocent comments but they are contributing to the negativity associated with aging.

This episode was ignited by Crunchy Tales recent article, Disrupting Daily Ageism. We know for perceptions to change, there need to be more voices. This is ours.
