When The Work Is Done: "Retirement Reinvention"

qimono/Pixabay

The old jokes about spending our latter days in a rocking chair on a porch somewhere really don't apply anymore.

She packed the book with ideas for staying happy and healthy after the full-time working days are over.  And she joins us to pack in as many of the details as time allows.
