Caroline Paul is author of New York Times best seller The Gutsy Girl and more recently Tough Broad: from Boogie Boarding to Wing Walking - How outdoor adventure improves our lives as we age. 
Whether it be walking mindfully and with awe in your neighbourhood, bird watching, hiking, surfing, or wing walking, the stories in Caroline’s new book are truly inspirational. 
When we’re constantly told that ageing is a slow decline, these stories remind us that as we grow old, and responsibilities may start to fall away, we can have the time of our lives and age in a fulfilling way. 
Episode highlights:

Falling on a one wheel.
Tough Broad - a quest to change the narrative of ageing.
Skateboarding through grief and loss.
Wing Walking - seeking courage and finding ecstasy. 
Cultivating awe in your daily life.
Simply being outside is good for you as you age - the science says so.
Being in your 60s can be a great time of exploration and adventure. 
The five drivers of healthy ageing.

Known for her amazing freestyle routines and tricks (including handstands on her board), Cornely @raizortail has competed in the European Championships, having taken up the sport in her late 30s.
As a child she'd always wanted to skate, but she didn't want to stand out more than she already did, and so she decided not to. Now in her middle years, she's fully embracing 'dancing' with her board.
Episode highlights:

Getting in to skateboarding and joining forces with other women - Dorks On Decks
Growing up queer in a Christian family, and not wanting to stand out more.
Freedom and energy - "skateboarding makes me a better mum, partner and worker".
Freestyle skating is like a puzzle of tricks you shove in to one another - the weirder the better.
Taking part in the European Championships.
Skateboarding is like dancing.
The skate community is such a warm and uplifting community - "I totally fit in".
Cheer for each other and for every single baby step you take.
