August 20, 2023 Mediation & End-of-Life Planning: Living in the Now - with Kimberly Best
Kimberly Best is a registered nurse who spent over two decades working in various intensive care units, trauma centers, and emergency departments. She pursued graduate school in clinical community psychology but found it unfulfilling and returned to nursing. After her brother introduced her to transformative mediation, she went on to study conflict management and currently specializes in mediation, facilitation, and restorative practices for peace building.
Kimberly highlights that end-of-life care should be focused on the patient's quality of life and ability to do what matters to them, rather than on painful treatments that can be cruel and rob patients of a peaceful and dignified ending. She highlights the importance of addressing conflicts sooner rather than later and embracing mediation as an alternative to the legal process to avoid a long, drawn-out and acrimonious situation.
Kimberly also touches on the important theme of estrangement and how it can impact end-of-life conversations. She emphasizes the importance of identifying what is important to all parties involved and notes that reflecting on how we dealt with conflict growing up can affect the way we deal with it now.

July 30, 2023 Have You Thought about the Service Industry?
Full-time work after you retire may feel like a cop-out; after all, you're supposed to be "done working", right? Not necessarily! Lots of people like to keep their foot in the door, so to speak, and the social aspect of work is hard to give up.
So what about part-time work? And maybe the service industry is the place to find it! There are many businesses looking for part-time help; you can pick the hours, decide on the services you want to provide, and there's no stress involved because it's not your "life work".
Servers, bartenders, dog walkers, cab drivers...there are so many options out there! Don't brush off this way to make some extra money and be part of what's going on, without taking the time to check it out.
