About Curious Companions
Aging is not something to fear—it's something to honor. Our Curious Companions Program proves that the later chapters of life can be some of the richest, wisest, and most fulfilling. With every year lived, we gain stories, insights, tenderness, and courage. We don’t outgrow curiosity or joy. We don’t lose our capacity to dream, or discover. And we never become “too old” to learn new things, create new memories, and build new relationships.
Curiosity fosters engagement with life, encouraging continuous exploration and social interaction. Research has shown that older adults who maintain a creative and curious mindset tend to report higher levels of happiness and a more optimistic outlook on aging. I gently challenge my participants to increase their curiosity and to cultivate meaningful connections.
Each Curious Companions session—whether in person or on Zoom—is a celebration. We laugh together. We reflect. We create. We wander down the paths of stories long tucked away. We welcome new ideas, new curiosities, and new sparks of inspiration.
Curious Companions is where curiosity stays alive.
At Curious Companions, joy is always possible.
