LIVING AGELESSLY - GemLife TV series premieres this month

OUR EXCITING NEW EIGHT-EPISODE TV SERIES, WHICH CHALLENGES MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT AGEING, CONTINUES ON THE NINE NETWORK THIS MONTH.

Extra excitement is in the air, particularly among GemLife Palmwoods homeowners, as the resort’s very own Sharon and Kevin Lagden will feature in episode 5. Watch Sharon leap from a plane on Saturday, 20 April on Channel NINE from 1pm as she tries skydiving for the first time!

This month’s episodes will take us even further than the Sunshine Coast though, as we meet more inspirational Australians over 50 who embody what it is to have an ageless mindset.

In episode 3 we meet Carole, who – after a life spent building her hairdressing empire, raising her daughter solo, and surviving cancer – is not sure how to find love. Now in her 50s, she is ready to seek her equal. Carole switches up her role as hairdresser and sounding board and has a girl-to-girl talk with relationship counsellor Heidi Sommer-Ball who helps her navigate the maze of modern dating: online apps!

Then there’s Lisa, also in her 50s, who had met and lost the love of her life. Lisa is ready to date again but needs a makeover to give her the confidence she needs. Style mentor Ange Cleary helps Lisa push through her grief by bringing colour back into her personal style.

Meet Arnhem Land tourism guide Tim, who at 50, launched a new career in a field he had no experience in. Tim has weathered the travails of Covid and financial hardship and got far more than he ever bargained for later in life. Tim shares the trials of staying afloat and how he pivoted not only his business, but his mindset, with the help of the locals and trusting his inner voice. For Tim, bridging geographic and cultural divides is the reason he gets up in the morning.

Meet entrepreneurs and adventure seekers, Mark and Judy, who are in their 70s and making 30-year plans. Mark and Judy left their corporate careers and wandered around Australia with their three children searching for their ‘forever’ adventure. They stumbled upon Paronella Park – a truly magical place nestled in a lush forest with waterfalls, 120km south of Cairns. They bought it and have been faced with every adversity from floods to cyclones to facing death, and yet they never give up.
