Age Well: A Road Scholar Guide to Life’s Fourth Age
Life is a journey, and like any great adventure, preparation and planning can make all the difference. For much of our lives, we live in the moment, rarely considering a time when we might not have the same mobility or cognitive abilities we enjoy today. Yet these changes often come so gradually we don’t notice them — until small struggles become frequent enough to demand our attention. And by then, knowing how to adapt can feel overwhelming.

To help navigate this transition, Road Scholar’s Age Well series explores life’s fourth age with expert instructors, offering guidance on both the challenges and opportunities of our later years. By planning ahead, we empower ourselves to live fully at every stage of life.
Leading experts present hour-long educational seminars on topics that can help older adults and their families prepare to age with confidence, resilience and joy. Topics include:
- Health and wellness strategies to keep older minds and bodies strong
- Ways to build emotional well-being and resilience for purpose and connection through life’s transitions
- Fostering social connections and relationships to build community
- New technologies and accessibility tools that support independent living, from home modifications to digital platforms designed for older adults

Road Scholar believes learning is the key to thriving at every stage of life, and our Age Well series of online courses focuses on ways to plan for and embrace the years ahead with wisdom, curiosity and adventure. Join us as we navigate this next journey together with our free, online Age Well lecture series!
