I get calls from clients frequently,  who are in the mid-transitional years, looking for coaching  to help them find a new career path.  However, a good many of them feel they will never be able to transition into a new job path due to their age; they feel that employers will not look favorably on […]

With a large number of boomers who will be retiring in mass exodus in a few years, it seems imperative that organizations assist with this transition out of the workforce.  However, few organizations truly have any type of retirement transitional program in place to start to prepare older workers in this transition.  It is more than just […]

I saw the new Indian Jones movie this past weekend.  It was a great movie - very funny and action-packed.  One line in the movie was very memorable for me and for others in the midlife years: “Life stops giving and starts taking away.”  I’m sure it equates to the aging process and can be […]

As we age, we all reach major milestones: 13, 16, 21, 40, 50 and then beyond.  When we are in our younger years, it is easy to see our accomplishments that can give us satisfaction and enable us to see our talents, abilities, and our worth.  We graduate from high school, go to college, get […]
