  • Mom & My Bathroom Mirror- James Flaherty

    Jim Flaherty is 90 (going on 60) — a former Manhattan advertising creative director, country innkeeper, TEDx speaker, novelist, and relentlessly cheerful authority on aging well. He has published five books, including his latest, Loving Longevity: Make Your Next Years Your Best Years (written, naturally, with a ten-year plan printed under his name). A father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, he lives and creates in an art-filled converted 1940s dairy barn in the foothills of the Berkshires. A Directing Elder in his church, he also sings in the choir — and has a TV series, screenplay, and Broadway musical waiting for the right agent. His daughters’ favorite review of his life: “You never bore us.”

  • What Your Childhood Taught You About Love (That You're Still Believing)- Lainie Etzioni

    Our next speaker spent ten years researching why smart, capable women keep repeating patterns that make them miserable, and building a framework to help them finally stop.

    She is a bestselling author and emotional wellness and confidence coach specializing in midlife transformation. Her work goes beyond behavior and gets to the root- the core wounds formed in childhood that quietly shape every relationship, every decision, and how a woman shows up in her own life.
    She has lived everything she teaches. Her research is built on her own transformation, and that journey became the foundation of her signature Unbecoming Method Framework.
    When she's not doing this work, she can be found with her two children, a good book, somewhere far from home, laughing with her friends, or, most likely, eating chocolate.
    Please welcome Lainie Etzioni
