WATCH: How one organization is aiming to counter ageism

Ximena Abogabir felt an emotional sting around age 70 when her colleagues in Santiago, Chile, began to treat her less as an asset and more as a liability. Her own experience, along with rising stereotypes about older people's value in the workplace and society, inspired her to co-create "Travesía Cien," an organization to help counter ageism in her country and beyond. In this episode of Brief But Spectacular's longevity series, Ximena shares how developing and modeling a positive mindset can help transform the "journey to 100," empowering people to live their best lives.
