110. How to live an iconic life, with 86-year-old Joyce Perrin

110. How to live an iconic life, with 86-year-old Joyce Perrin

When the producer of Beyond Better, Rita Domingues, told me she’d booked an 86-year-old first-time author for the podcast, I was both curious and impressed. And as I readied for our conversation, I could see why Rita had selected her as a guest.

  • One of the first female hospital CEOs in Canada
  • Climbed Kilimanjaro at age 64 (!)
  • Cofounded the Panama Hospice and Respite Foundation
  • Breast cancer survivor who is also blind in one eye
  • Published her first book at age 86

Recording this episode felt like sitting with a friend over coffee, listening to her incredible stories. It’s rare to get an opportunity to learn from someone who has lived such a choice-filled life like Joyce. I hope you gain as much from this conversation as I did.
