About the author
With a PhD in Philosophy focused on Psychology and Cognitive Development in later life, Dr. Janet Gentleman-Ingersoll has spent her career studying how the mind, purpose, and relationships shape healthy aging. She combines academic insight with real-life experience as a daughter, caregiver, mentor, and lifelong learner who’s walked the same path of reinvention many older adults now face. Her passion is helping people rewire their thinking, repurpose their identity and self-worth, and refire their spirit so they can live their most vibrant, meaningful, and joy-filled years yet.
