Finding the Throughline with Kate Hanley

[Jennifer Fink: What’s coming up]: The lure of leaving it all behind and becoming a flight attendant + the Post-It note sayings that light the path Ep 1064


Listen Later

In part three of my conversation with author of Building Boys, Jennifer Fink, we talk about the mind trip that is beginning to envision retirement.

I have to point out that this is the third interview in a row where my guest mentions that they have a phrase written on a Post-It note hanging above their computer monitor. In addition to sharing what she’s written on her Post-It notes (plural–there are two), Jennifer shares some of her go to shows, snacks, and songs.

The lure of leaving it all behind and becoming a flight attendant: “After raising teenagers, unruly passengers? Cinch”

The Building Boys Book Club Jennifer is currently dreaming up

What’s written on the Post-It note above her computer (there are two of them, actually)

Finding ways to connect more directly with the people who value your skills and expertise

Thinking about retirement, and having more regular access to scuba diving

Envisioning being able to work only on the things closest to your heart and having plenty of time for relationships

The Netflix show the world went crazy over a couple years ago that Jennifer just discovered

The secret to making movie-theater-caliber popcorn

Her go-to Pandora station

Why December 23rd is the best day of her year, hands down
