  • Why Our Stories Matter

    We all have a story. Sharing our stories connects us and creates a better understanding of each other.  In this episode, Sandy and Amy talk about how to listen to other people's stories and how the stories we share are a reflection of our values.

  • Reframing Retirement

    In our latest “under 20 minute” podcast, we delved into the evolving concept of retirement. With life expectancy on the rise, the traditional notion of retiring at 65 is no longer the norm.

    We discussed how many people are choosing to extend their working lives, pursue new passions, or start their own businesses. We also explored the benefits of a more flexible retirement lifestyle, including increased mental and physical well-being, a sense of purpose, and the opportunity to contribute to society in new ways.

    Key takeaways:

    • Retirement is no longer one-size-fits-all: The traditional retirement model is outdated.

    • People are finding new ways to stay engaged and fulfilled: Many are pursuing hobbies, volunteering, or starting businesses.

    • A flexible retirement can offer numerous benefits: Improved health, a sense of purpose, and opportunities for personal growth.
