WE TELL A NEW STORY ABOUT HOW WE AGE

The online journal Crow’s Feet: Life As We Age, published on the Medium platform, presents the work of hundreds of writers who are tapping into new creative energy and discovering the joys of life at any age.

Since we started the Crow’s Feet publication in 2019, we have published thousands of articles by writers who are exploring how we can age gracefully.

Their writing can be funny or serious but it is always honest and from the heart. In addition to personal stories of finding meaning late in life, you’ll find essays about facing medical issues or caring for a partner or parent with dementia. Reading them, you discover what it is really like to get older.

Crow’s Feet: Life As We Age is a volunteer-run publication, created by people who have decades of experience in publishing and marketing, but also in a variety of careers, like nursing and financial planning, or raising a family.

In June 2022, we launched the Crow’s Feet Podcast, interviewing some of these writers and other innovative leaders who share how they find meaning in the second half of life. We’ve produced nearly 50 episodes in the first two years and you can listen to them all.
