She Was Told Women Don’t DJ. Then Madonna Came Calling
“You’re Too Old For That” is a regular series that explores inspiring activities being pursued by those over 50 years old who feel you’re never too old to do what lights you up. When Tracy Young told people she wanted to be a DJ, the response was often immediate and dismissive. “Girls don’t do this.” For many women, that kind of comment becomes a stopping point.

Your Sleep Habits Could Be Aging Your Brain, New Study Suggests Original

7 1980s Sitcoms That Prove TV Was Just Better Back Then Original
Before smartphones, social media, and endless streaming options, sitcoms brought families together at the same time every week.

And, oh yeah, you actually watched TV on a TV.
Your Pillow Has an Expiration Date — And You’re Probably Ignoring It Original
Most people know that sheets and pillowcases need regular washing. The pillow itself is easier to forget. Unlike sheets, it may not look dirty after months of use. And because it changes gradually, you may not notice it becoming flatter or less supportive. Or maybe you’ve noticed more neck or shoulder stiffness in the morning and that your pillow’s bounciness has been gone for months — or years — and thought it was fine. But no, a pillow does not last forever.

Loneliness and Memory Loss Are Linked — But a New Study Reveals a Twist Original
Many older adults find that life becomes quieter with age. The children have grown up, friends move away, retirement changes, daily routines or health problems make it harder to get out and about. So if you’ve ever been told to go out more, stay socially active or spend time with friends “to keep your mind sharp,” there’s good reason for that advice. A large European study found that older adults who felt lonelier tended to have worse memory than those who were less lonely.
Forget Bubble Baths: This Is What Self-Care Really Means After 50 Original
A new survey from Home Instead found that older adults who prioritized self-care also reported higher levels of happiness.
