Sara Barnes, author of The Cold Fix and The Winter of Our Lives, is my guest in this Forward After Fifty Podcast.  We discuss the benefits of cold water swimming for women over 50, including how it reduces physical pain and emotional distress. 
Sara shares her journey of using cold water therapy to overcome challenges after having had major leg surgery to alleviate symptoms of osteoarthritis. She also discusses the extra benefits of finding a sense of community with other cold water swimmers worldwide, including overcoming the dread of turning sixty by swimming with sixty different people in sixty places and the friendships and stories that were created.
We discuss the importance of embracing one's physical self and taking action to live life to the fullest after the age of 50. It's about embracing age and its potential, as well as the personal growth and empowerment that comes with it. Don't let fear hold you back from living your best life.
