Bee-ing and Age-ing

Patricia will talk about her forthcoming book:

Bee-ing and Age-ing: 10 Lessons on Positive Aging from the Bee draws lessons from bees to help people age well. In Bee-ing and Age-ing, bees function primarily as analogy: their cooperation, roles, and resilience become ten named lessons that illustrate how humans can age with purpose, connection, and positivity, supported by narrative examples. She blends data and inspirational self‑help with broadcast‑style storytelling, drawing on “amazing guests” from her Positive Aging work and her own experiences to make bee lessons concrete for everyday aging challenges. Each chapter will conclude with key "pollination" points and reflection prompts to help summarize the main ideas.
