It is never too late to lean into life, to say ‘Yes!’ to opportunity and discover a new passion. Sometimes all it takes to get us on our way is to see someone like us set an example of what life can look like. Then, personal transformation can happen. The “Rock Stars of Aging” forum, sponsored by Uber, at Growing Bolder Day Jacksonville shined the light on local inspirational adults over the age of 80 who are showing us all the blueprint for a happier , healthier life. These artists, athletes, role models, speakers, leaders and more shared their life’s wisdom and encouraged others in their community to get on their way to their own life filled with passion and purpose!
