Ageing anxiety is the fear of growing old and what might come with it, from illness to losing your lustre for life. It’s a fear that has irked Soraya Carol, one of our listeners, who recently turned 60. We take a closer look at this fear, and hear from Soraya to understand where she’s coming from. Then, we speak to our gerontologist Lily Fu, on the best practices to living well in one’s older years, and dealing with issues that may arise from this new chapter in one’s life.
