Ep 2: "Still Dancing at 92!"
Show notes
What's the secret to staying active, energized, and joyful at 92? Just ask Lilith Kopman, the Queen of Joy!
In this episode of Love Lilith, Wisdom from the Queen of Joy, my mom and I explore Physical Stability—the importance of keeping our bodies moving, strong, and capable as we age.
Mom has never considered herself an athlete. As she puts it, "I wasn't a physical lady. I was a theater lady!" Yet at 92, she's still teaching line dancing twice a week, walking regularly, and enjoying yoga, which she didn't even begin practicing until she was 85!
We share some wonderful family stories, including her marriage to a very athletic husband, her less-than-enthusiastic reaction to receiving a bicycle as a gift, and her lifelong love of dancing.
We also talk about exercise, body image, and finding movement you actually enjoy.
The takeaway? You don't have to be an athlete, join a gym, or keep up with someone half your age. Find something you love, make it part of your life, and keep moving!
Physical Stability is one dimension of Stability, the first pillar of my S.E.L.F. Empowerment framework: Stability, Environment, Love, and Friendship.
❤️ Join us for more conversations, laughter, and life lessons from the Queen of Joy.
