160: How To Lean Into Joyful Longevity With Award-Winning Broadcaster Marla Letizia

Goals With Soul

This week’s episode is excitingly unique, as I interview the vibrant and super inspiring Marla Letizia about all things aging and longevity!

Marla Letizia, aka Nanny Bubby, is a grandmother, award-winning broadcaster, and entrepreneur who hails from Las Vegas.

She was the first female hired in production in Las Vegas history and quickly became the first female director of the evening newscast at KSHO-TV-13, going on to a successful career across news and radio - all whilst raising her two children.

In 2015, Marla became interested in cooking and began to be known by close friends and family as Nanny Bubby®, the name her grandchildren call her. In February 2019, she debuted on KLAS-TV 8 with a cooking segment called, “Cooking Confidence Coaching with Nanny Bubby.” In 2023, she added another string to her bow as she became the founder of the Long-Life Era Community.

Her Long-Life Era Pledge was born of the idea that – newsflash! – life doesn’t end at mid-life! We all have the opportunity to live long, healthy, and fulfilling lives well into our 80s, 90s and, as Marla pledges, 100 and beyond!

In this episode you will learn (and be inspired!)

>> That mid-life may not quite be when you think it is…you might be in it already, and that’s OK!

>> What the long-life era is and the opportunities it brings

>> To embrace your long-life era and pursue your passions to maintain your sparkle

>> That the happiness u-curve shows us that, contrary to popular belief, we get happier as we get older

Our lives are composed of several eras – childhood, young adulthood, mid-life and long-life. Society often seems to be geared towards the younger eras but Marla is taking a stand against that and celebrating the beauty of later life.

Taking inspiration from Roger Bannister, who smashed the 4-minute mile and laid the gauntlet for many others to follow, Marla launched her long-life pledge, building a community of like-minded people who recognize they can live to be 100…and beyond!

Of course, you need to prepare for your long-life era.

Health isn’t just physical – it’s mental and emotional. It’s impacted hugely by isolation and loneliness, so it’s imperative we bring our communities offline and live life IRL – in real life! And that’s what Marla is building with her community.

Wisdom can’t be taught, it can only be shared, and the wisdom Marla shares is certainly invaluable.

Enjoy the listen!
