I have a quick favor to ask!

Beyond our monthly interview series and podcast, I've been thinking about new ways for us to connect; think workshops, gatherings, topic deep-dives, and more.

I want this to be more meaningful and community driven, so before I plan anything, I want to hear from YOU. Whether you've been with us from the start or just found the community, your opinion will help shape what comes next.

It takes just a few minutes, and I’d really appreciate your input.

“The purpose of the ritual is to Turn Fear into Hope” -Bruce Feiler

In my latest interview with Bruce Feiler, an extraordinary writer who has traveled the world researching the stories he writes, he shared the five elements that make up a ritual. The final piece is hope.

Bruce shares a simple ritual he discovered that can be done on its own or as part of a larger ritual, how he’s already shared it with others, and the impact it has had.
In a world that can feel so uncertain and disconnected, even a small moment of connection can make a big difference.

You may have heard or even noticed, there’s a quiet shift happening.

We’re beginning to ask deeper questions about what it means to age; not just longer, but better.

If you’ve ever wondered:
“What’s next for me?”
“Where do I find purpose now?”
“How do I stay engaged, connected, and fulfilled?”

I invite you to join us this Wednesday, May 6th at 4:00 PM for a My Future Purpose discussion.

This will be an open, engaging conversation, not about having all the answers, but about exploring the possibilities together.

We’ll talk about longevity, reimagining retirement, and how to live fully in the years ahead.

Because the most meaningful insights don’t come from one voice, they emerge when we listen, share, and learn together.

Let’s connect and reimagine what’s possible. Join the community driven conversation: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/jFA8hwI0QOqENpBOR4GFhw #/registration

From navigating life transitions to creating unforgettable gatherings, his work offers both inspiration and practical tools we can all use.

If you’ve been craving deeper connection, in your family, your work, or your community, this conversation is for you.

Who decided there’s an expiration date on becoming who you’re meant to be?
At 50, I became a mother.

At 80, I’m still evolving – personally, professionally, and emotionally.

And right now, I’m facing one of life’s hardest transitions: supporting my husband through memory decline while holding onto my own sense of identity and purpose.

On the Purpose & Passion Podcast, we get into the conversations most people avoid:
-Why traditional retirement planning falls short
-How to navigate caregiving without losing yourself
-And why your later years should be about growth—not shrinking

Here’s what I know for sure:
There is no “too late.”
There is only the moment you decide to move forward.

If you’re standing at a crossroads, this conversation is for you.

In this episode, we “shake the snowglobe” and stir up the assumptions, routines, and roles that can quietly shape our lives for years. I loved this conversation because it reminded me that when we pause long enough to look beyond the obvious, we often uncover passions, strengths, and possibilities we may have been overlooking.

If you’ve ever wondered what comes next, or felt like you were ready for a fresh perspective, this episode is for you.

Aging is about taking time to reflect on our life and being open to new possibilities. 🌟

I recently joined Nancy Griffin on the Glowing Older podcast to talk about embracing the fluidity of aging and designing a life that still sparks meaning and joy. We explored how mindset, community, and intentional planning can help us face transitions with grace rather than fear.

Retirement isn’t the end of purpose, it’s an opportunity to rewire and redefine what matters most. Let’s shift the conversation from “getting older” to “growing older together.”

In my latest podcast episode with Kerry Hannon, fear about outliving your money and fear about your health came up over and over.

Kerry shared insights from her new book Retirement Bites: A Gen X Guide to Securing Your Financial Future. We talked about why so many Gen Xers feel “woefully unprepared” for retirement, how 401(k)s and job changes left people to figure things out on their own, and why credit card and student loan debt can feel like a “dream killer” when you’re trying to imagine your future.

The good news? Kerry and I also explored very practical steps – like doing a real budget, using retirement calculators instead of guessing a “magic number,” and getting help from a holistic financial planner – to move from anxiety to a clearer plan.

And start replacing financial fear with a roadmap you can actually act on.

Well… I did it. I turned 80.

As this birthday approached, I found myself looking back—at the moves across the country, growing up in the shadow of war, the early awareness of antisemitism and racism, the protests in the 60s, the feminist awakenings in the 70’s, the love, the losses, and the reinventions. So many life lessons!

Reflection isn’t always easy. Some memories bring pride and tenderness. Some still bring ache. But honoring all of it, the light and the shadow, has helped me feel whole.

What I know at 80 is this:
Gratitude matters. Forgiveness matters. Self-compassion matters. And staying engaged with life matters. Also, history echoes. The calls for justice and dignity we heard decades ago keep rising again. That humbles me. It also strengthens my resolve.

I’m grateful to every person who has walked beside me—my family, friends, colleagues, and clients. If you’ve been part of my journey in any way, thank you.
If you’re willing, I invite you to reflect on your own life. What has shaped you? What are you still becoming?

Yikes. I’m 80.

As I approached this milestone, I found myself doing what I often invite others to do, pausing to reflect. I looked back at the good, the pain, the joy, and everything in between. Reflection isn’t always comfortable. But when we allow ourselves to honor the full arc of our lives—the triumphs, the missteps, and the unexpected turns—we can feel more whole.

Eighty years have taught me this:
Life brings joy and sorrow, growth and grace. We don’t get to rewrite the past. But we do get to choose how we learn from it, how we integrate it, and how we continue becoming.

I feel deep gratitude for the people who have walked beside me—personally and professionally. If you’re reading this and you’ve been part of my journey in any way, please know how much your presence, encouragement, and partnership have meant to me.

With each passing year, gratitude matters more. So does forgiveness. So does self-compassion.

If you’re willing, I invite you to pause and reflect on your own life arc. What has been shaped in you over the years? Who are you still becoming?
