Retirement is being sold to us as a monolith, but MIT Age Lab founder Joe Coughlin reveals it is actually as complex—and critical—as any other phase of life. In this episode, we unpack the hidden realities of aging, longevity planning, and why the traditional blueprint for growing old is broken. Discover why the first year of retirement can trigger a dangerous mortality spike for men, the real psychological forces behind "gray divorce", and why joining a club or community can add years to your life better than any pharmaceutical hack. Plus, learn how 40-year-old mothers are shaping the future, why college towns secretly make the best anti-aging environments, and how to design your next 8,000 days for maximum happiness.
