In this deeply personal and informative episode 210, Dr. Gillian Lockitch is joined by Jennifer Kaufman, a seasoned educator and school principal with over two decades of experience in autism education—who also happens to be the grandmother of a child on the autism spectrum. Jennifer offers a rare dual perspective: professional insights shaped by years at the helm of a specialized autism school, and heartfelt wisdom drawn from her own family's journey. Together, they explore the evolving role of grandparents in today’s families, particularly when a child is diagnosed with autism. Jennifer shares how her expectations as a grandparent shifted, the emotional complexities that followed, and how her professional training helped—but didn’t fully prepare her—for the personal impact of the diagnosis. Drawing from her book, Grandparenting on the Spectrum: A Journey from Both Sides of the Desk, she provides gentle, practical guidance for navigating these often unspoken challenges. Listeners will learn how to offer support without overwhelming their adult children, create routines that help neurodiverse grandchildren feel safe and connected, and build relationships based on love, patience, and flexibility. This episode is an essential listen not just for grandparents, but for anyone touched by autism, looking to better understand the balance between knowledge and compassion, action and acceptance.

In EPISODE 204 OF GROWING OLDER LIVING YOUNGER, I have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Robert Wolf, a distinguished neuro-radiologist, and author of the compelling book, Not a Real Enemy: The True Story of a Hungarian Jewish Man's Fight for Freedom. In this work, Dr. Wolf chronicles the harrowing and inspiring journey of his father, Ervin Wolf, who survived the brutalities of both Nazi and communist regimes in Hungary. The narrative sheds light on the often overlooked history of the nearly half a million Hungarian Jews who were deported and killed during the Holocaust. Through an epic tale of daring escapes, oppressive regimes, personal loss, and ultimate triumph, Dr. Wolf not only preserves his family's legacy but also contributes a vital perspective to Holocaust literature. In our conversation today, we'll delve into the experiences that shaped Ervin Wolf's indomitable spirit, the process of documenting such a personal and historical account, and the lessons we can draw about resilience, freedom, and the enduring human spirit.

In EPISODE 194 OF GROWING OLDER LIVING YOUNGER, Dr. Deborah Heiser, an applied developmental psychologist and founder of the Mentor Project, discusses the transformative power of mentorship, particularly in midlife and beyond. She emphasizes that true mentorship involves intrinsic motivation, a meaningful connection, and a goal, distinguishing it from coaching or advising, which are often extrinsically motivated. Deborah Heiser highlights the emotional and psychological benefits of mentorship for both mentors and mentees, sharing examples like Nobel laureate Bob Lefkowitz's "legacy tree." She encourages you, our listener, to recognize mentorship opportunities in your daily life. Create your own legacy tree to acknowledge to yourself and others, the impact you have, and have had on the world around You.

In episode 191 of Growing Older, Living Younger, Dr. Gillian Lockitch explores the transformative potential of anger with Bronwyn Schweigerdt, a licensed psychotherapist, anger expert, and host of “Angry at the Right Things” podcast. Bronwyn has masters degrees in both Counseling and Nutrition. She shares her unique journey, from a career in nutrition to becoming a psychotherapist, inspired by her personal struggles with severe depression and anxiety. Through her story, she highlights how suppressed anger often manifests as anxiety, depression, or physical symptoms, emphasizing the importance of addressing its root causes. Bronwyn reframes anger as a signal from the body—much like a warning light on a car dashboard—alerting us to unresolved issues or unmet needs. Rather than suppress or avoid it, she advocates for acknowledging anger, attuning to it, and channeling it healthily through boundaries, assertive communication, or accountability.The discussion delves into the role of childhood experiences in shaping our emotional responses and the impact of shame and betrayal on mental health. Bronwyn emphasizes the need to heal our relationship with anger to foster self-integration and wholeness. By understanding anger as a natural and necessary emotion, we can cultivate healthier relationships with ourselves and others. Listeners are encouraged to view anger not as a flaw but as a tool for self-awareness and growth. This empowering conversation will provide valuable insights into how embracing and managing anger constructively can lead to greater emotional resilience and well-being.
