POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Every person on this season lost the thing they thought defined them. Fired. Disowned. Paralyzed. Buried by grief. Broken. None of them stopped.
Clinton Kelly’s episode is live now, and eight more are coming this season.
What did you lose that turned out not to be the end?

Nobody told us we got to write our own aging story. That reinvention doesn’t have an expiration date. That a well-lived life looks like history, not decline. That joy doesn’t need a justification. We spent seasons trying to fit lives that never fit us. Now we’re done apologizing for aging into ourselves. What’s something you’ve had to unlearn?

Hey, I’m Heath. Started this for the kids who can’t picture 60, and the 60-year-olds who forgot they’re allowed to keep going. Glad you’re here. Drop a ❤️ and introduce yourself. ��#TheNewMaturity #queeraging #LGBTQelders #midlife taken in Pocono Mountains by @thenewmaturity

Michael Dorian walked into Ground Zero in borrowed scrubs and joined a rescue crew. It took seventeen years for the record to catch up with what he did, and what it cost him.

His best friend Neil Adams carried this story for decades. Now he’s telling it on The New Maturity.

Whose story in your life deserves to be told more fully than it has been?

New episode live now on YouTube, Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Link in bio.

36 hours. That’s all it took.

Stephen and I slipped away to Long Beach Island for a quick reset. Perfect weather, lots of biking, long walks, and the very underrated art of not working.

Somewhere in my fifties I stopped treating rest like something I had to earn. Best decision I’ve made in a while.

What’s your favorite quick escape? Short drives only. 👇

When The Chew ended after seven years, Clinton Kelly didn’t start working the phones.

He trusted something else: the people who had worked beside him, seen how hard he worked, and knew exactly who he was.

“Those are the kinds of connections that will really help you in the future.”

Who has seen you at your hardest-working? Tag them. 👇

I ❤️ ICE CREAM! Fifty-something and still the first one at the topping bar.

The softer, the better! Softville on the lower east side is worth the trip. Yummy flavors and a topping bar like you’ve never seen. Oh and did I mention it does double duty as a gallery? Cheers and congrats on taking one of my favorite things in a whole new direction.

Soft server or scoop?

Clinton Kelly’s back went out right before we recorded. One muscle relaxer later, we got this. 😂
He was a GOOD TIME, and this clip proves it.

Clinton Kelly spent a decade telling America what not to wear. Then seven years and an Emmy on The Chew. Then the plug got pulled.
 What he did next is the whole episode: he stopped asking permission.
 Season 5 of The New Maturity is live now. Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube. Link in bio.
 What have you stopped asking permission for?
