Interview the 89-Year-Old ‘Mad Man’ Who’s Redefining Aging
He helped sell luxury cars and fine whiskey around the world, launched a successful inn at midlife, and just published his fifth book—at age 89. Now former international ad exec James Flaherty is proving that age is no barrier to purpose, reinvention, or joy. In his new book “Loving Longevity: Make Your Next Years Your Best Years,” Flaherty tackles aging with the same wit, guts, and creativity that made him a standout in advertising—and in life. He speaks candidly about caregiving for his partner with dementia, navigating grief, staying connected across generations, and how older adults can rekindle their sense of purpose. Ask him: What’s the biggest lie we’ve been sold about aging—and how do you suggest we push back? You’re 89 with a ten-year plan. What do you say to people who feel like it’s “too late” for new goals? With 7.5 million depressed seniors in the U.S., Flaherty’s message is as urgent as it is uplifting: the script for aging is due for a rewrite.

Why Pet Grief Hits So Hard
Losing a beloved pet can be heart-wrenching. Jean Alfieri, author, speaker, and pet loss grief coach, understands. Her rescue dog, Silly Sally, taught her how to grieve, remember, and celebrate the special bond we share with our pets. Having adopted older shelter dogs for decades, Alfieri had experi¬enced pet loss before, but when Sally passed, she returned to creative outlets to process her grief. Along the way, she was reminded of others facing a similar loss—single friends whose only family was a pet, parents helping a child grieve their first dog, and seniors or veterans who’d lost a comfort or therapy animal. To support grieving pet owners, Alfieri developed “21 Ways to Weather the Loss of a Pet,” a practical, heartfelt toolbox of ideas to help others navigate the pain of loss while honoring their pet’s memory. Her goal: to bring comfort and lightness by reminding us that love never ends— it simply changes form. Contact Jean Alfieri at (602) 397-1344: jalfieri@rtirguests.com
