EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of Modern Wisdom, featuring Laura Vanderkam and Chris Williamson, Why Does Time Pass More Quickly As You Get Older? | Laura Vanderkam explores make Time Feel Longer: Choices, Memories, And Intentional Living Laura Vanderkam and Chris Williamson explore why time seems to speed up with age and how our choices shape that perception. They argue that time isn’t really lacking; it’s about priorities, intentional planning, and how we fill our hours. Vanderkam explains that our sense of time is tied to how many memorable experiences we create and recall, not the raw number of hours. Through ideas like time tracking, savoring, planning adventures, and respecting our future selves, they outline practical ways to feel less rushed and more fulfilled.
