Description

Local musician and workshop leader Jeanne Mackey shares personal stories, songs, and reflections on the aging process in this interactive session. "Getting older happens automatically. Getting wiser as we age requires some effort! It helps to know that others are facing similar issues. And it's essential to keep one's sense of humor in the midst of the uncertainty."

In 2010, Mackey created Drop the Knife: A Memoir-in-Song on the occasion of turning 60. An instructional designer at the University of Michigan and former psychotherapist, she has led workshops on conscious aging.
