July 31, 2022 Collaboration is Key - with Randye Kaye
Randye Kaye is no stranger to hard work! She's been making her way in this world all her life, and she's brought up her kids along the way, teaching them how to make the most of whatever life gives you.
Reinvention is something that can happen at any time in life; being ready to try new things is always beneficial, but especially so as we age. Randye talks about the various careers she's tried throughout her life, and about the books that she's written:
Ben Behind His Voices - One Family's Journey from the Chaos of Schizophrenia to Hope [https://benbehindhisvoices.com/]is her story of the struggle her family has waged to bring happiness back to their lives after serious medical issues were discovered.
Happier Made Simple - Choose Your Words. Change Your Life [https://happiermadesimple.com/] helps readers take small, immediate steps to be happier, reduce stress, and change the narrative of their stories. She has taken seven core concepts with the acronym BREATHE and applied seven core phrases to the concepts:
* Being - Be Here Now
* Reality - It Is What It Is
* Engagement - We're All Connected
* Appreciation - This Is Good
* Trust - All Will Be Well
* Humor - Isn't That Interesting?
* Esteem - Whatever Happens, I'll Handle It
Definitely a multipotentialite, Randye is a national voice talent and actress, a part-time newscaster and classical music host on NPR affiliates WSHU-FM and AM, a gifted audiobook narrator; she speaks frequently to professional providers and families about the process of coping with the challenges – including stigma – when mental illness strikes a loved one. She hosted the talk show "Issues and Answers" on Connecticut TV, "The Life Talk show" on radio and podcast, and now produces and hosts the podcast "Schizophrenia: 3 Moms in the Trenches. [https://www.facebook.com/Schizophrenia3Moms]"

July 17, 2022 Getting Older is a Privilege - with Mark Ryall
Mark Ryall taught economics and mathematics for over two decades and coaches cross-country running, a sport which he feels improves mental and physical strength and promotes teamwork and mutual support. His education includes BSc (University of Waterloo), MBA (York University), and PhD (University of Toronto, Education).
Mark also competes in triathlons and represented Canada in the 2019 World Age-Group Championships in Lausanne, Switzerland. He enjoys acrylic art, painting historic structures, landscapes, and sports portraits.
The speculative fiction Age-Decoded is Mark’s first novel. He wrote the first draft about ten years ago to educate himself and the world about the imminent tsunami of genetic engineering. CRISPR-like technology will impact humans in physical and psychological ways, thus fundamentally affecting what it means to be human. The story peers 100-200 years into the future, allowing the reader to critically imagine and feel this new scientific frontier.
Mark talks about how retirement is a great time of life - where you can do whatever you want - and it's important to make the most of it. He encourages listeners to continue to grow and learn as they age; growing older is a privilege not afforded to everyone.
Please reach out to Mark through Quora: https://www.quora.com/profile/Mark-Ryall-2?q=mark%20ryall or via email at [email protected]
His book, Age Decoded, is available at Amazon and other retailers.
