Every man over 65 has a story of something he survived — a loss, a failure, a health scare, a life turned upside down. What separates the men who come back from those moments and the ones who don’t isn’t luck. It’s resilience — a skill that can be built deliberately and that, research shows, actually tends to strengthen with age when it’s cultivated. In this episode, we explore what resilience looks like in later life, share stories of senior men who’ve bounced back from serious setbacks, and walk through the practical habits and mindset shifts that build resilience before you need it.
