Images matter and consumers 50+ (women in particular) are often misrepresented and/or ignored by brands. @AARP’s recent “Mirror/Mirror” survey indicates that marketers still aren’t accurately portraying this vast & growing demographic in their advertising. aarp.org/research/topics/lif…

Research shows that connecting w/family & friends is vital to aging well & living longer, happier lives. Social connections promote good health, combat loneliness & help navigate through difficult times.
Check out @AARP’s article on dealing w/loneliness. aarp.org/home-family/friends…

New research from @AARP shows there’s a disconnect between how women experience aging and how advertising and media portray it.
It’s time to close this gap.

We released a survey of grandparents & it might surprise you to know the avg. age of a first-time grandparent is 50. Hard to believe GenXers are already grandparents! And, 94% of grandparents provide some sort of financial support for their grandchildren. aarp.org/research/topics/lif…

Loneliness has the largest negative effect on quality of life, and is the single largest predictor of dissatisfaction with #healthcare. As #healthcare leaders, we must reevaluate the system and prioritize preventing loneliness by putting #people at the center!

"In the US, only 3% of #healthcare CEOs are women, 6% are department chairs, 9% are division chiefs, and 3% are serving as chief #medical officers. This is despite women comprising 80% of the healthcare workforce..." #WomenRiseUp #gendergap #Nurses #medicine #boss #Entrepreneurs
Article: Women hold 80% of health care jobs; there is "evidence that having women in upper mgmt. and on corp. boards is associated with improved financial performance and enhanced accountability." How can nurse leaders fill more of these roles? bit.ly/2y9tHWA @HarvardBiz

Study suggests eating fiber-rich foods (i.e. broccoli, oats, beans, etc.) might help delay brain aging by triggering the production of a short-chain fatty acid that has anti-inflammatory properties. Keep the science going as we work to #DisruptDementia!
