Ice Cream for Dinner & Other Good Ideas with Carey Lindeman (Part II)

Purpose, independence, and a second helping of perspective. In Part 2 of our conversation with Carey Lindeman, we talk about aging with intention, asking for help before it’s a crisis, and why “I just don’t want to do it anymore” might be the most liberating sentence in the world. Also: neighbors as team members, walking sticks as freedom, and why ice cream absolutely counts as dinner.

Launch parties, iPad troubleshooting, and a fridge full of hotdog buns.

From "just a favor" to full-blown crisis, they unpack the adolescence of aging, the art of starting before it’s too late, and why sometimes you need a third party to say what you can’t. If you’ve ever felt the squeeze between loving fiercely and not knowing what to do next—this one’s for you.
