Vic Gets Real About Turning 64: Cancer Update, Identity & His Birthday Wish | Over 50 & Flourishing
In this special birthday episode, I sit down with Vic to celebrate his 64th birthday, complete with Star Trek costumes and a birthday cupcake. We also have an honest & heartfelt conversation about health, aging, and what really matters as we get older. Vic gives a full health update, and we talk candidly about the emotional weight of turning 64, the identity struggles that come with aging, and why our worth was never meant to be tied to our careers, our bodies, or what we can still do. With humor, vulnerability, faith, and a whole lot of love, Vic and I reflect on the season we're in and what he's dedicating his next year to.
