The Lies We Tell Ourselves About Aging a...

About this episode

💡 If you’ve ever told yourself “it’s too late” to start something new, this episode is going to prove you wrong.

Too many people hit their 40s, 50s, or beyond and start believing the lie that their best years are behind them. Gary is here to crush that mindset.

In this episode, we’re breaking down why age is actually your greatest advantage, why experience beats youthful energy, and why you still have more time than you think.

🔥 You’ll hear from:
🔹 Chip Conley – The successful entrepreneur who joined Airbnb at 52 and turned his experience into his biggest asset.
🔹 An older entrepreneur asking, “What’s my biggest strength now?” and getting a game-changing answer.
🔹 Radio legend Elvis Duran – Why 50 feels way younger than you ever expected.
🔹 Gary’s hardest-hitting rants on time, patience, and why you’ve been thinking about aging all wrong.

💥 You’re not running out of time—you’re running out of excuses. Listen in and start moving.

📲 If this hits home, send it to a friend who needs to hear it. Because trust me—someone in your circle does.
