What if we were to reimagine senior living around active aging principles that empower older adults to live with purpose, engagement and continual growth? It's not just buildings that need to be designed with a purpose in mind; the people using them also need purpose.

We are joined by the founder and CEO of the International Council on Active Aging, Colin Milner, who believes that retirement communities need to move away from the status quo and offer environments that support purposeful, engaged living through well-designed, flexible spaces, intergenerational activities, lifelong learning, and wellness-focused programs.
