Catch up to your money. It’s often ready for retirement before you are. _________________________ What helps wellbeing endure as our lives change? Matt Bloom has spent much of his career studying human flourishing. In this conversation, he brings his insights into retirement and combines it with lessons from his own transition from professor to writer, volunteer and what he calls a “wise elder.” We discuss why wellbeing is built through small daily practices, how adopting a new identity can change your behavior, why many need to become more intentional about friendship after leaving work, and how volunteering and shared-interest communities can create both connection and meaning. Matt also explains how older adults can become “guardians and shepherds” of relationships and shares Map Your Days, a simple practice that takes five minutes a night and that, in 27 years of teaching MBAs and executives, he says has never failed to teach someone something they didn’t know about their own life. Matt Bloom joins us from Colorado. ________________________ Bio Matt Bloom is the author of Lasting Wellbeing: Science-Based Practices for Tranquility, Authenticity, Meaning, and Joy. He is a writer, speaker, entrepreneur, and emeritus professor of management at the University of Notre Dame. Bloom holds advanced degrees in psychology from Cornell University (PhD) and the University of Kansas (MA), and is an award-winning teacher who earned top honors for courses he taught to undergraduates, MBA students, and corporate executives. At Notre Dame, Matt taught classes on innovation and design thinking, organizational change and leadership. As a professor in the Mendoza College of Business, Matt studied well-being for nearly three decades where he led the WorkWell research project. Initially, he and his team of ten researchers focused on the well-being of people in the helping and healing professions: international aid workers, global health professionals, educators, clergy and ministry workers, physicians, and other healthcare professionals, among others. He later broadened his focus to include both well-being at work and in life more generally. The team also launched a first-of-its-kind mobile application to capture daily experiences from several hundred research subjects. Prior to becoming a professor, Matt was a financial advisor at Shearson Lehman Hutton, a consultant at Arthur Young, a psychiatric orderly at The Kansas Institute, and a paramedic for the Douglas County (KS) Emergency Medical Service. Some of Matt’s favorite wise well-being practices: Extended backcountry hiking (5+ days). And, yes, there are no showers or bathrooms Baking hearth bread using natural leavens, mild sourdough starters Scuba diving on coral reefs and wrecks in the Caribbean Catch-and-release fly fishing on small mountain streams Poetry reading using a process he adapted from lectio divina Reading novels. Among his favorite authors are Marilynne Robinson, Richard Ford, Richard Rosso and Abraham Verghese _________________________ For More on Matt Bloom Lasting Wellbeing: Science-Based Practices for Tranquility, Authenticity, Meaning, and Joy Website Ritual app: Download for iOS or Android, or start at ritual.io. _________________________ More Retirement Podcast Conversations You’ll Love How to Flourish…in Retirement – Daniel Coyle Retiring: Creating a Life That Works for You – Teresa Amabile The Good Life – Marc Schulz, PhD _________________________ Wise Quotes On the Value of Small Steps “Our wellbeing rises and falls mostly as a result of little things that we do day by day…We live our values mostly in the little things that we do.” On Relationships “Quality matters more than quantity.” On Elderhood “We can really be the guardians and shepherds of family relationships.” _______________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

They explore what makes certain foods easy to overeat, why novelty keeps us coming back, and whether sugar, preservatives, or any single ingredient deserves the blame.Liam also explains why the grams of protein on a label do not tell the whole story, how to identify higher-quality protein sources, and why adding protein does not automatically make something “GLP-1 friendly.”Plus, they discuss how GLP-1s can change cravings and food preferences, whether the food industry is trying to work around the medications' effects, and why fiber, savory flavors, and entirely new products may shape the future of food.This is an honest conversation about food, biology, access, and why people living with obesity deserve better than blame or another shiny label.Follow Liam:LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/liam-kincaid-ba498022aTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP87VgedS/APOTHIKS Food Consulting https://www.apothiks.com _____________________________Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0HUIGKl3BN4Vg6LYI-dkOA/join_________________________________________________________________________#Mounjaro #MounjaroJourney #Ozempic #Semaglutide #tirzepatide #GLP1 #Obesity #zepbound #wegovySend us Fan Mail!The Podcast Promo Ad Support the showKim Carlos, Executive Producer TikTokInstagram Kat Carter, Producer TikTokInstagram

A lot of the conversation on retirement runs one way: stay busy, stay productive. Dr. Denise Taylor thinks that could quietly cost some people their best years. Denise is a Chartered Psychologist and later-life researcher in the UK. She spent 25 years coaching people through career transitions, then, at 61, went back to school herself, completing a professional doctorate on how people reconstruct meaning after full-time work. Her research subjects were all at least two years past retirement, deliberately, because the first two years tell you very little. What she found in them became the backbone of her new book, ThriveSpan: Walking Gently Into What Matters Now. The extra years we have gained, she argues, arrive roughly between 60 and 80, while health usually still holds. Spending them duplicating the shape of your working life is a decision, and it’s not right for everyone. Her alternative is not reinvention, which she calls exhausting, but recalibration: a reset in which you subtract before you add. She is also candid about her own path. Leaving a twenty-year marriage. Four days and four nights alone in nature with no food and no tent. A doctorate that started the October before COVID. Four acres of woodland that taught her, at last, how to stop moving fast. We discuss why purpose does not have to be a cathedral, why she stopped dyeing her hair on principle, what her research says about curiosity and being of service, why you should imagine the future you do not want, and why saying no is the most underrated skill in later life. Retirement is different for everyone and we have choices. Denise argues against a continue to work narrative, and she argues strongly. If you’re a listener who loves their work, or who needs the income, shear her as offering choice rather than a verdict. ________________________ Bio Dr. Denise Taylor is a Chartered Psychologist, later-life researcher, and widely published author whose work explores how we can live well as we age. With more than 25 years’ experience supporting career and life transitions, she has written extensively on work, identity, ageing, and meaning in later life. Her work has been featured by the BBC, ITV, and national newspapers. Her previous books include Career Coaching for Midlife and Beyond, Rethinking Retirement for Positive Ageing , and Find Work at 50+. Her doctoral research into meaning after full-time work won the Research by a Career Development Professional award in 2024. ThriveSpan: Walking Gently Into What Matters Now offers a reflective, psychologically grounded approach to later life, integrating research, lived experience, and the restorative influence of nature. Denise writes the Substack newsletter Ageing Reimagined and is a regular contributor to the i Paper. She lives in Gloucestershire, where time spent in her woodland continues to inspire both her writing and her approach to later life. _______________________ For More on Denise Taylor Substack – https://ageingreimagined.substack.com/ ThriveSpan – https://denisetaylor.co.uk/thrivespan/ Website – https://denisetaylor.co.uk/ _______________________ Other Retirement Podcast Conversations You’ll Also Love Inspired Retirement – Nathalie Martin Re-Visioning Retirement – Susan Reid, PhD Joyspan – Kerry Burnight, PhD _______________________ Wise Quotes On Recalibrating “You don’t have to reinvent yourself. You can just slow down a bit…now time is more my own.” On Purpose “When I’m talking to people about purpose, they want this massive thing, like building a cathedral. You can have purpose just by smiling at somebody walking down the street.” On Being “If all you are is a human doing, then you’re not really thinking about who am I as a human being?” ______________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

Your money is ready for retirement. Are you? Get started on Future You. _________________________ What might happen if retirement gives you permission to become a beginner again? After more than four decades in journalism, including a long career at The Wall Street Journal, Neil Lipschutz began an entirely different chapter—as a mystery novelist. In this conversation, Neil discusses career identity, creative work and the importance of giving retirement some structure without locking yourself into a rigid plan. He also shares a powerful lesson from his own second act: enjoy the process of pursuing something meaningful without making your satisfaction dependent on how other people measure the outcome. _________________________ Bio Neal Lipschutz, a long-time journalist, was formerly a deputy editor-in-chief at The Wall Street Journal. He also previously served as WSJ’s ethics and standards editor. He also at one time was the top editor at Dow Jones Newswires. His short fiction has appeared in a number of publications. “Long Arm of the Past” is his second novel in the Scott Morgan series following his debut novel “No Write Way to Die” in 2025. __________________________ For More on Neal Lipschutz Author Website Long Arm of the Past (A Scott Morgan Mystery) No Write Way to Die ___________________________ Other Retirement Podcast Conversations You’ll Love How to Flourish…in Retirement – Daniel Coyle Change Your Questions, Change Your Life…in Retirement – Marilee Adams, PhD Mattering…in Retirement – Jennifer Breheny Wallace ____________________________ Wise Quotes On Retiring External Validation “Enjoy the process… and try to separate that from whether it was ultimately a success in some other person’s eyes.” On Finding a New Center “It’s such an opportunity to try something new, to find some new purpose, to find some new center around which to organize your life.” On Idenity “I felt like a human being before I had a career…I’m not sure I need a career to justify my identity now.” _____________________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

Luigi Mangione's unexpected guilty plea in federal court has thrown his upcoming New York state murder trial into limbo. After pleading guilty to federal stalking charges for the December 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, Mangione's admission leaves state prosecutors facing a steep battle over double jeopardy laws to keep their case alive. FOX News contributor and criminal defense attorney Donna Rotunno joins to discuss the legal strategy behind Mangione's move, what it means for his federal sentencing, and the broader societal shift surrounding public support for high-profile violent acts.Immigration enforcement remains a key concern for voters in Minnesota after ICE operations there saw two fatal shootings involving federal officers. That topic, along with fraud and affordability, is shaping the midterm races in the North Star State. Minnesota Republican Senate candidate Michele Tafoya joins FOX News' Bill Melugin to discuss her platform and path to the Senate as she aims to be the first Republican elected in a statewide election there since 2006.

Saving a loved one isn't about drama, ultimatums, or "fairness", it's about doing what actually works. In this episode, host Sharlee Dixon sits down with Amber Hollingsworth, Master Addiction Counselor, founder of the Hope For Families Method, and creator of the popular YouTube channel Put The Shovel Down. Amber built a global movement by rewriting the rules of recovery, showing families how to guide loved ones toward help without waiting for them to "hit bottom."

Esther Gokhale asks another question: How are we using our bodies during all the hours when we aren’t exercising? Esther Gokhale, creator of the Gokhale Method, became interested in posture after experiencing a severe L5-S1 disc herniation while pregnant with her first child. Surgery was followed by another herniation, and she began searching more broadly for ways to change how she moved in everyday life. In this conversation, Esther explains why she considers posture a missing pillar of wellness and why she believes ordinary activities (walking, sitting, standing, bending and even lying down) can become what she calls “life exercises.” We explore why sitting itself may not (completely) deserve its terrible reputation, what she means by a “J-spine,” how walking mechanics affect the entire body, and what modern adults can learn from young children and populations whose traditional movement patterns have been preserved. Most encouragingly for people in the second half of life, Esther argues that we should distinguish between what becomes common with age and what is necessarily natural. Her message is clear that our capacity for improvement often lasts much longer than we assume. _____________________ Bio Esther Gokhale (GO-clay) has been involved in integrative therapies all her life. As a young girl growing up in India, she helped her mother, a nurse, treat abandoned babies waiting to be adopted. This early interest in healing led her to study biochemistry at Harvard and Princeton and, later, acupuncture at the San Francisco School of Oriental Medicine. After experiencing crippling back pain during her first pregnancy and unsuccessful back surgery, Esther Gokhale began her lifelong crusade to vanquish back pain. Her studies at the Aplomb® Institute in Paris and years of research in Brazil, India, Portugal and elsewhere led her to develop the Gokhale Method, a unique, systematic approach to help people find their bodies' way back to pain-free living. Gokhale’s book, 8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back, has been translated into ten languages. Esther Gokhale has taught at corporations such as Google & IDEO, presented at conferences including TEDx(Stanford), consulted for the trainers of the SF 49ers and several Stanford sports teams, and conducted workshops for physician groups at Stanford, Kaiser Permanente, Sutter Health, UCSF. The New York Times gave Esther the title “The Posture Guru of Silicon Valley. A Stanford clinical trial is currently studying the Gokhale Method. _____________________ For More on Esther Gokhale Website – Gokhale Method 2-minute Video Overview of the Gokhale Method 8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back by Esther Gokhale ____________________ Other Retirement Podcasts You May Like The Joy of Movement – Kelly McGonigal Eat Your Ice Cream – Ezekiel Emanuel, MD, PhD Make Your Next Years Your Best Years – Harry Agress, MD _____________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

For John Fisher, the answer was not reinvention for its own sake. It was the chance to keep growing, serving, solving problems, and feeling fully engaged. Before becoming a Ranger, John spent more than 20 years at Sony Pictures Television, including as supervising producer of The Young and the Restless, where he won six Emmy Awards. His earlier career included work with HBO and key roles in launching MTV, VH-1, MTV Europe, and The Comedy Channel. His next chapter didn’t pop up overnight. It grew from volunteering. One opportunity led to another: EMT certification, a seasonal Ranger-Assistant role, ranger training, and eventually the Río Hondo Basic Police Academy. There, surrounded by much younger recruits, John became California's oldest graduate of a basic Police Academy, class president and was voted Most Inspirational. In this conversation, John explains how he handled the demands of the academy, why age brought advantages as well as limitations, and how three simple criteria (learning something new, helping people, and having fun) guided his choices. His story is dramatic, but his approach is accessible. Becoming a Ranger may not be your thing, but what small experiment might open your own unexpected next chapter? John Fisher joins us from California. _________________________ Bio John Fisher is a Ranger with the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority, a local park agency with extensive property in the Santa Monica Mountains. He joined the MRCA as a volunteer in 2024. After attending the Rio Hondo Basic Police Academy in 2025, Fisher completed field training and became a generalist ranger in 2026. Prior to the MRCA, Fisher worked for Sony Pictures Television for over 20 years as a supervising producer for “The Young and the Restless,” where he won six Emmy Awards. Earlier, Fisher worked on the NBC Enterprises syndicated daytime program, “The John Walsh Show.” He spent 11 years with HBO as a production executive, where he supervised a wide range of programming, including “Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher,” “The Chris Rock Show,” “Reverb,” and “Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist.” His experience encompasses key roles in launching MTV, VH-1, MTV Europe, and The Comedy Channel, as well as numerous producing and consulting credits for broadcast, pay cable, syndication, corporate, and home video projects. A longtime member of the Television Academy, Fisher has served on the Daytime Peer Group Executive Committee and the Daytime Awards Committee. He has been involved with community and educational endeavors and has volunteered with his homeowners’ association, Syracuse University's alumni advisory network, and Boston University's Los Angeles program. An avid cyclist, he has been a member of several advocacy groups and a volunteer trail maintainer. Additionally, he continues to volunteer with the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department Search and Rescue team based in Santa Clarita and as a civilian volunteer for the Los Angeles Police Department through his membership in the California Emergency Mobile Patrol (CEMP). Fisher also belongs to the Mountain Bike Unit in the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area and is a volunteer for the National Park Service and California State Parks.

Retirement can create an unexpected form of pressure. With more freedom and fewer work constraints, shouldn’t this be the moment when we finally perfect our health, routines, relationships, and long-delayed ambitions? Steve Kamb argues that this all-or-nothing mindset often produces an all-then-nothing result. Steve is the founder of Nerd Fitness and author of How to Try Again. In this conversation, he explains why setbacks are not proof that we are failures; they are information about what to try differently. He shares lessons from the Museum of Failure, reframes treading water as a legitimate success during certain seasons, and makes the case that no one truly returns to square one. Every previous attempt leaves us knowledge and data we can use going forward. If we pay attention. Steve also introduces his PACT framework – Pause, Accept, Change, Try – and explains why permission to start can be more powerful than waiting for confidence. Whether you want to rebuild fitness, develop a new interest, strengthen relationships, or design a more purposeful retirement, this episode offers a compassionate and practical way to begin again. Steve Kamb joins us from Massachusetts. _________________ Time for an Upgrade? The honeymoon period doesn’t last forever in retirement.

Then retirement arrives and, for the first time, the tempo is ours to choose. In this conversation, science journalist Elizabeth Svoboda, author of The Art of Pacing, argues that most of us get can stuck oscillating between two extremes — the perpetual sprint and complete disengagement — and that the real skill is learning to move across a range of paces with intention. Elizabeth shares interesting and useful ideas, including “rigid flexibility” (from an Olympic runner), smart circadian-rhythm energy management, the freedom that “selective mediocrity” can create, and how identity can get intertwined with the pace we keep. It’s a conversation about doing less of what drains you, so you have more for what matters most.

You'll hear different perspectives on the the shift from “role to soul”, the emotional side of transition, how to build a life portfolio, why mattering may be as important as money, how connection shapes happiness, why your brain can keep growing, and how creativity can become a surprisingly powerful health habit that can enhance longevity.

You all know that we are living in a toxic soup of seen and unseen chemicals. They're in our water, our food, our air, our furniture, and our clothing — everywhere we turn. It can feel overwhelming. But what if detoxification simply became a natural part of how we live, not something we need to fear or stress about? In this episode, I sit down with my good friend, vitality expert and detox architect Natalie Lefevre, for a fascinating conversation about what it really means to support the body's ability to heal. Like many of the guests I love bringing to you, Natalie's passion comes from her own healing journey. After being misdiagnosed, experiencing serious health challenges, and losing someone she loves, she was propelled into a lifelong search for answers that took her far beyond conventional medicine and around the world in pursuit of innovative healing modalities. Natalie works with advanced diagnostics and blood filtration technologies to uncover what conventional approaches often miss. But what I love most about her perspective is that she doesn't stop at the physical body. We explore the emotional and nervous system patterns that can silently keep us stuck, even when we're eating well, exercising, and doing all the "right" things. Together, we discuss environmental toxins, heavy metals, microplastics, inflammation, nervous system regulation, grief, emotional healing, subconscious programming, and the powerful connection between body, mind, and spirit. Natalie's philosophy is simple: detox isn't a protocol — it's a way of life. And true vitality becomes possible when we address all of who we are — the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of healing. Whether you're just beginning your wellness journey or looking to go deeper into root-cause healing, this conversation will leave you thinking differently about what it means to detox, heal, and reclaim your health.

Welcome to Lords of Limited, the podcast dedicated to getting you better at drafting in Magic: the Gathering. This week, we've got part three of the Wedding Paternity Chronicles. Today is another episode from the Archetype Architecture series featuring Golgari. We look at what the archetype does historically, and why it's been more or less successful in certain sets in the play booster era. Then we explore what these trends can teach us about predicting this archetype's strength in future sets.

His new book, The Healthcare Heist, opens with a story he rarely tells. That experience became the seed of a much bigger argument: that insurers, pharmaceutical companies, private equity and venture capital firms, and electronic medical records companies all have their “hands in the cookie jar,” extracting value from a system that’s supposed to serve two primary stakeholders: the patient who needs care and the doctor who gives it. Jordan calls out the “intimacy gap” where today patients disclose everything to their doctors, while doctors are trained to disclose nothing back. He makes a provocative case that it can be closed through storytelling. He also shares practical and valuable advice you can use: concrete steps for your next doctor’s visit and the healthcare-literacy gaps that trip up many people heading into retirement. _________________________ Bio Jordan Grumet, MD is a hospice physician who has spent his career at the intersection of medicine, money, and meaning. He’s the author of Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor’s Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life and The Purpose Code: How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy. His latest book, The Healthcare Heist, argues that patients and doctors are the only two parties with both the incentive and the ability to fix a broken healthcare system — and makes the case for shared storytelling as the tool to do it. Jordan earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan and his medical degree from Northwestern University. __________________________ For More on Jordan Grumet, MD The Healthcare Heist:How Physicians and Patients Can Unite to Transform Healthcare The Purpose Code – Dr. Jordan Grumet Taking Stock – Dr. Jordan Grumet __________________________ Other Podcast Episodes You’ll Also Love Eat Your Ice Cream – Ezekiel Emanuel, MD, PhD What Matters Most – Diane Button ___________________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

And none of it’s really improving medicine…Most people… don’t realize that they’re being pickpocketed at every single step.” On Medical Malpractice “Less than one in 10 cases that are filed actually show medical malpractice.” On the Power, and Promise, of Storytelling “Stories changed the world.”
Kelvin Cooper, CEO of Lakewood-Amedex Biotherapeutics, has developed a novel class of antimicrobials that operate by disrupting bacterial and fungal cell membranes, rapidly killing the microorganisms. Traditional antimicrobials work by inhibiting bacterial growth, but bacteria have evolved resistance mechanisms against all drug classes, with multidrug-resistant strains becoming increasingly common. The company is focused on treating infected diabetic foot ulcers with a topical gel formulation that locally delivers a high drug concentration while minimizing systemic side effects. Kelvin explains, "You can go back all the way to the discovery of penicillin a century ago, and there was tremendous excitement around that. And then through the 40s, when they figured out how to deep tank ferment the antibacterials, the beta lactams, as it was then, again, there was no real indication that resistance was going to be that big of a problem." "What we have done at Lakewood-Amedex Biotherapeutics is we've discovered a completely new class of antimicrobials, and it's probably good to give some context of how most antimicrobials work. Typically, what they do is they will stop the bacteria from dividing and growing, and that prevents the bacteria from causing an infection. Now the bacteria and fungi have figured out ways to mutate around that. So they have a different way of building cell walls, for example. And that has become the big problem. Our class of agents hits a completely different type of mechanism. We believe that what happens, and we have good scientific data to show this, is that this class of agents attacks the membrane of bacteria and fungi. It disrupts the membrane, which allows the contents of whatever microbe it is to spill out, and it immediately kills the bacteria extremely rapidly." #LakewoodAmedex #AntimicrobialResistance #AMR #InfectiousDiseases #Antibiotics #Antimicrobials #DiabeticFoot #DiabeticFootUlcer #HealthcareInnovation #DiabeticCare #Biotech #PublicHealth #MedicalBreakthrough $LABT lakewoodamedex.com Listen to the podcast here

In this episode with Dr. Jockers and guest Dr. Tony Jimenez, you will learn how cancer is understood as a complex process shaped by the body's internal terrain rather than a single isolated cause. You'll hear how inflammation, toxicity, and metabolic imbalance can influence disease development and progression in ways most people are never told. You will also discover how integrative oncology approaches can be used alongside conventional care to support the body's healing response. You will gain a clearer understanding of why genetics account for only a small percentage of cancer cases, while epigenetic and lifestyle factors play a far greater role in how disease expresses itself. The discussion explores how chronic stress, poor sleep, environmental toxins, and unresolved emotional trauma can all impact cellular function over time. You'll also hear how addressing these root factors can help restore balance and support the body's natural defenses. Explore the connection between nutrition, blood sugar regulation, and cancer biology, and why metabolic health is central to long-term outcomes. The episode breaks down how lifestyle habits such as movement, sleep quality, and nutrient-dense foods contribute to resilience. And you'll gain insight into how integrative tools like detoxification, immune support, and light-based therapies are being used in advanced care settings.

The founder of the Say It Now movement joins us to share his journey, his new book The Gratitude Express, a deceptively simple question that replaces “What should I do?” in retirement, and why he decided to reimagine rather than retire. ___________________ Bio Walter Green's father died when he was a teenager and it left an indelible impression on him that life is short, precious, and unpredictable. Walter decided it was never too early and not too late to express his profound appreciation for those who had impacted his life. That is when he began his journey of seeking out those people who made a significant impact. It was the moment to share his gratitude with them. Walter Green was Chairman of the Board and CEO of Harrison Conference Services for 25 years, during which time it grew into the leading conference center management company in the U.S. He has lectured at the Wharton Graduate School of Business and Hofstra and Long Island universities, as well as being featured as an expert on the topic of effective meetings in numerous national publications. Associated for years with the Young Presidents' Organization and the World Presidents' Organization, he's a member of the Chief Executives Organization and the L3 Organization (Leadership, Legacy, Life). Since selling his company, he has mentored young adults and is actively involved in several non-profit organizations. He lives with his wife, Lola, in San Diego, California. ______________________ For More on Walter Green The Say It Now Movement The Gratitude Express ______________________ Retirement Podcast Conversations You’ll Also Love Changing the World One Small Act at a Time – Brad Aronson The Best Day of My Life So Far – Benita Cooper ______________________ Wise Quotes On Retirement Planning “I never asked, ‘What should I do?'

There’a a whole half a year to go! Start the second half strong with new habits. Free 1 hour workshop July 1 | 12 noon ET Sign up here ____________________ You’re preparing for retirement. For many of us, there’s another transition nestled within that one. It comes with joy and little instruction – becoming a grandparent. Celia Dodd, a journalist of 30+ years and grandmother of six, has written the book many grandparents wish they had: one that celebrates the delight and makes room for the honest, complicated feelings nobody admits out loud: Grand Expectations: The Joys and Dilemmas of Being a Grandparent. This conversation is about permission. Permission to feel torn between the grandchildren you adore and the next chapter you’ve spent years planning. Permission to be your own version of a grandparent rather than the one in your head. Permission to support without interfering, to say no without guilt, and to design these special years deliberately instead of drifting into them. Celia Dodd joins us from London. _________________________ Bio Celia Dodd is a journalist and author who wrote regularly for The Times of London, the Independent and other national newspapers and magazines, focussing on relationships, family life, health and education. She also wrote profiles of interesting people, including Gordon Ramsay, Lou Reed and actress Juliet Stevenson. After thirty years as a journalist she turned to writing books about parenting and major transitions in life, such as the empty nest and retirement. They are subjects close to her heart as well as her own stage in life. Her new book is Grand Expectations: The Joys and Dilemmas of Being a Grandparent. She's also written All Grown Up: Nurturing relationships with adult children, Not Fade Away: How to thrive in retirement, The Empty Nest: Your changing family, your new direction and Conversations with Mothers and Daughters. Celia has two adult sons and a daughter, and six grandchildren. ______________________ For More on Celia Dodd Grand Expectations: The Joys and Dilemmas of Being a Grandparent Celia Dodd’s first visit with us: All Grown Up (on relationships with adult children, and thriving in retirement) _______________________ Retirement Podcast Conversations You’ll Also Love The Grandparenting Blueprint – Linda & Richard Eyre (Part One) The Mindful Grandparent – Dr. Shirley Showalter’ Grandparents' Day – Kerry Byrne & Ted Page ________________________ Wise Quotes On Grandparenting & Purpose “Grandparenting has been life-enhancing in so many different ways.

In this episode, investor advocate Pam Krueger, founder and CEO of Wealthramp and creator of PBS's MoneyTrack, rejoins us to reframe what retirement readiness really means. The conversation moves from the money (why diversification is a verb; why the sequence of your returns matter; and why the saving habit that built your wealth has to be unlearned to spend it) to the life side of the equation (the “dimmer switch” alternative to the on/off switch of a traditional retirement, and the conversation couples should not skip). The big idea Pam shared today is optionality: instead of planning toward a single date or a magic number to hit, build a plan that's resilient enough to flex as life changes, because it will. It's a practical, candid look at designing the kind of next chapter you’ll love to get to live. _______________________ Bio Pam Krueger is an investor advocate, personal finance journalist, and author with over 25 years of industry experience.

The future of work is aging, and longer lives will require new thinking about careers, retirement, and contribution. Today, Scott Siff brings that to the practical level: how do we create better pathways for people who want to keep contributing, but not necessarily in the same way? And what are employers missing when they overlook experienced talent? His story begins with his father's frustrating search for a new job in his 70s, and builds into a larger conversation about age bias, unretirement, labor shortages, and the need to redesign work for longer lives. __________________________ Bio Scott Siff is the founder and CEO of Pivoters, a job-matching platform focused on helping people 55+ connect with employers seeking experienced talent.

You can train hard, sweat daily, and still feel stuck, and the frustrating part is you might be doing everything “right” except the one lever that moves the fastest: nutrition. We sit down with Jackson Jen, tech builder and entrepreneur (yes, including Cameo), to unpack the turning point that took him from “lifting with no results” to visible abs in months, without changing the workout plan. The conversation stays grounded in the stuff that actually works: calorie tracking, protein targets, consistency, and the unsexy truth behind body recomposition and sustainable weight loss.Then we get into the question everyone keeps asking: will AI replace fitness coaching? Our take is simple. Reminders are easy. Accountability is hard. We break down why an AI bot that texts “log your food” gets ignored, while a real coach, or even something that feels genuinely social, changes behavior. If you've ever started strong and drifted after two weeks, this is the segment that explains why, and what to build instead: feedback loops, real check-ins, and systems that scale without turning coaching into chaos.Along the way we also hit caffeine and pre-workout habits, the difference between energy and dependency, and yes, we spiral into classic Inmoderation territory with sardines on camera, card magic, and a border story that sounds like a sketch. If you want practical fitness coaching insights with zero fake perfection, hit play, subscribe, share the episode with a friend who's “doing everything,” and leave a review with your hottest take: what keeps you accountable when motivation dies?

Then, in his early fifties, he had a wake-up call. It sent him to look under a rock he'd never lifted, where he found “an absolute cavern of issues.” The result is his sixth book, The Future is Grey: The Untapped Value of Age in the Workforce. Dan lays out the coming “bell to bulb” demographic inversion and the risks for organizations ignoring it. For individuals, he reframes the whole arc of a working life, from the language of generations (which he rejects as an ageist cognitive bias) to three universal career eras: Rivers, Rocks, and Rubies. That demographic inversion means experience will become more scarce and valuable. The through-line is don’t retire, rewire instead. He shares stories of people who kept working or returned to work in a different way, which brings his concept of the “experience dividend” to life. ________________________ Bio Dan Pontefract is a renowned leadership and culture strategist, author, and keynote speaker with over two decades of experience in senior executive roles at companies such as SAP, TELUS, and Business Objects. Since then, he has worked with organizations globally, including Salesforce, Amgen, State of Tennessee, Nestlé, Canada Post, Autodesk, BMO, Government of Canada, Manulife, Nutrien, UBC, McGill University, Virgin Media O2, City of Toronto, among others. Dan has firsthand experience in turning leaders and corporate cultures into a competitive advantage.

Be intentional. Design Your New Life in Retirement. Our next groups start in September. The very early registration discount ends June 21st. Learn more. What if everything you've been told about retirement is quietly working against you? John Coleman has spent his career around money and purpose, which makes his message all the more striking: money is a tool, not the point. In his new book, Good Money: Six Steps to Building a Financial Life with Purpose, he rethinks personal finance around human flourishing, and one of his steps reframes retirement itself: save for freedom, not retirement. We explore why the conventional retirement script, a withdrawl into pure leisure, carries real costs to meaning, community, and health; how continued, self-directed work changes both the math and the meaning of your plan; why your worth is never your net worth; and how to design your next chapter deliberately. It's a conversation that bridges the financial and non-financial sides of retirement, looks at retirement and purpose, and gives you a fresh way to think about what comes next. John Coleman joins us from Atlanta. ________________________ Bio John Coleman is the author of Good Money: Six Steps to Building a Financial Life with Purpose and The HBR Guide to Crafting Your Purpose.

A retirement is a terrible thing to waste. Don’t just retire. Design your new phase of life – with intention. Our next groups start in September. The very early registration discount ends June 21st. Learn more. ________________________ Retirement rarely unfolds exactly as planned. For Jerry Goodstein, retirement began with a clear sense of direction and a meaningful endeavor. But unexpected challenges, a deeply emotional experience helping his daughter move across the country, and an encounter with the world of ADHD coaching changed everything. In this conversation, Jerry shares how his retirement story became less about executing a blueprint and more about learning how to “turn into the swerve” by staying open to reinvention, purpose, lifelong learning, and becoming someone new later in life. This is a thoughtful conversation about identity, letting go, service, and the surprising ways purpose can evolve, over time and in ways you may not expect, after retirement. In This Conversation, You'll Learn Why God laughs at your retirement plans How unexpected “swerves” can open new directions in life The opportunities to repurpose your skills in retirement Why letting go of identity is often difficult for high achievers How lifelong learning can reignite energy, curiosity and engagement What coaching taught Jerry about listening and presence Why service became more important than living a life of leisure ___________________________ Bio Jerry Goodstein is Professor Emeritus, Carson College of Business, Department of Management, Information Systems, and Entrepreneurship at Washington State University. Dr. Goodstein received his Ph.D. in Business Administration from the University of California, Berkeley, and his MBA and BA in Economics and Geography from the University of California, Los Angeles. He conducted research and taught business ethics, leadership, and strategy at the undergraduate and graduate levels for over three decades at Washington State University and the University of Illinois. His research on restorative justice in organizations, corporate and stakeholder responsibility, and second chance hiring has been published in leading management and business ethics journals.

Most of us think of questions as something we ask other people. Dr. Marilee Adams has spent years showing the opposite: the most consequential questions we ask are the ones we ask ourselves. Adams, founder of the Inquiry Institute and author of the half-million-copy bestseller Change Your Questions, Change Your Life, (a new 5th edition has just been published) joins us to make us smarter about our internal questioning. She introduces us to two mindsets that live inside all of us — Judger and Learner — and the Choice Map™ that helps you notice which one is driving the bus. The conversation takes her work directly into the world of retirement, where Judger questions (What do I regret?, What do I resent?) can quietly shape our moods, relationships, and the texture of later life. But Learner questions (What would be meaningful next?, What does my heart want me to do?, What can I contribute?) open up possibilities for a different future. Along the way, Adams explains the physiology underpinning the two mindsets, and a single powerful question: Who do I choose to be in this moment? that she returns to again and again. She also introduces us to the five-to-seven-second “Stop, Breathe, Be” practice that can shift your nervous system anytime (from The 5 Resets: Rewire Your Brain and Body for Less Stress and More Resilience by Aditi Nerurkar, MD). If you’re thinking about designing the non-financial side of your next chapter, or looking to enhance your life in retirement, this is an episode worth re-listening to with a notebook in hand. _________________________ For More on Marilee Adams, PhD Change Your Questions, Change Your Life, 5th Edition Take the Survey & Download The Choice Map™ The Inquiry Institute __________________________ Bio Dr. Marilee Adams is an award-winning author, executive coach, and leadership consultant whose work has shaped how leaders think, communicate, and make decisions for more than four decades. She is Founder and CEO of the Inquiry Institute, a leadership development and organizational consulting firm dedicated to building inquiry-based cultures that accelerate results and deepen engagement. Its executive coaching, training, keynotes, and eLearning programs — all grounded in Question Thinking™ — are used by Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, healthcare systems, and universities worldwide. Her book Change Your Questions, Change Your Life has sold more than half a million copies worldwide and been translated into 26 languages. Now in its 5th edition, it remains one of the most enduring frameworks for mindset shift, leadership development, and human performance — and its newest edition addresses one of the defining challenges of our moment: how to lead and think with wisdom, curiosity, and connection in an age of artificial intelligence. At the heart of Dr. Adams’ work is a deceptively simple insight: the questions we ask — of ourselves and others — shape everything. They determine the quality of our thinking, our relationships, our decisions, and our cultures. In a world increasingly mediated by technology, the human capacity for inquiry is not just a leadership skill. It’s a competitive advantage — and an essential one. Dr. Adams has coached senior leaders and advised organizations internationally and is a recognized pioneer in inquiry-based coaching and organizational transformation. She speaks and teaches worldwide, helping leaders use Question Thinking™ everywhere it matters most. __________________________ Wise Quotes On the Two Mindsets “We’re always asking ourselves questions that affect our moods, that help with our decisions, and also make a difference in whether we have a positive quality mindset or the opposite. All of us human beings have two mindsets. We always will have them — which means they are normal…The more we accept our Judger, the more acceptance and forgiveness and empathy come online. That helps you open your heart to yourself and to others.” On Questions “Typical Judger questions in later life are: How can I just fill up my time? What would keep me from being bored? What do I regret or resent about the past? Learner questions sound different: What would be meaningful and satisfying for me going forward? What does my heart want me to do next? What can I contribute? What would be fulfilling? People who are more in Learner mindset literally live longer and have better quality lives. People who are past-oriented, regretful, resentful, live not as long and not as fulfilling. On Retirement “When you think about retirement, what’s exciting is to be open to the future and not get stuck in the past. Now you’re talking about creating a future that is intentional, and fulfilling, and healing.” _________________________ Retirement Podcast Conversations You’ll Also Love The Second Fifty – Debra Whitman Thinking Better to Live Better – Dr. Woo-kyoung Ahn The Mindful Body – Ellen Langer ________________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

What’s in your backyard that you haven't explored yet? And what if you decided to treat your own state like a foreign country? Beth Sobiloff and Marcia Rothwell, the co-hosts of Two Grannies on the Road, have set out to visit all 351 cities and towns in Massachusetts. They’re 121 towns in. Along the way, they’ve met second-act bakers, retired leaders turned magicians, mayors, alpaca farmers, and a man with the world’s largest collection of Back to the Future memorabilia. In this conversation, Beth and Marcia talk about why their world hasn’t shrunk in retirement, why trying and not liking something is still a win, how to spot the second act that’s already running quietly in the background of your own life, and what a real retirement curriculum might look like. If you’ve ever caught yourself drifting toward a smaller version of your life, this episode is a friendly nudge in the other direction. In this episode you’ll learn: How to discern a second act that’s right for you. How Beth turned an empty-nest into a 15-year creative project. Why abandoned hobbies offer clues for new pursuits.

Unspoken Words: A Selective Mutism Podcast by Dr. Elisa Shipon-Blum
Episode 76 of the Unspoken Words podcast features Dr. Elisa Shipon-Blum and Dr. Jenna Blum tackling one of the most misunderstood realities of Selective Mutism — the difficult behaviors that so often surface alongside it. Meltdowns, shutdowns, avoidance, and controlling moments leave many parents exhausted, and Dr. E and Dr. Jenna make the case that none of these behaviors are defiance. They are communication.Dr. E and Dr. Jenna explore why so many children with SM hold it together at school and fall apart at home, and why structure, consistency, routine, and predictability are non-negotiable for any anxious child. Through real case examples — a six-year-old hiding under the table at her own birthday party, a teen retreating to his room when relatives visit, a young client frozen in front of a beloved family friend — they walk through the four types of difficult behaviors and what each is trying to say.The middle of the episode turns to practical strategy: the Look-Listen-Learn framework, the roadmap method for preparing children before overwhelming events, and bridging down on the Social Communication Bridge® so kids build comfort before words. They also dig into the underlying contributors that drive dysregulation — sensory sensitivities, ADHD, hunger, fatigue, and the parent's own agenda.The episode closes on the feelings chart — a deceptively simple tool that gives children numerical language for emotions they can't yet explain — and on the truth that parents are the most critical component in their child's progress. Dr. E previews a Part Two with more strategies for navigating the big feelings behind the silence.--Chapters: (04:06) When Silence Feels Big: Why Kids with SM Hold It Together at School and Fall Apart at Home(10:55) Behavior Is a Signal, Not Defiance: Reframing Outbursts Through Look, Listen, Learn(17:07) The Roadmap and the Bridge: How Preparation Prevents Avoidance and Shutdown(29:44) On the Lookout: Using Cognition and Real-World Goals to Outsmart the Freeze Response(38:00) The Feelings Chart: Giving Kids Words for What They Can't Yet Explain- ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: https://selectivemutismcenter.org/resources/ Ask Dr. E a question of your own!

Most entrepreneurs are taught that the path to success starts with a blank page, a new idea, a startup, a grind from zero. But what if the real opportunity is in what's already built? Walker Deibel, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of “Buy Then Build: How Acquisition Entrepreneurs Outsmart the Startup Game,” has spent over a decade proving that acquiring existing businesses is one of the most powerful and overlooked paths to entrepreneurial wealth. He has bought roughly 10 companies outright, been inside over 100 deals, and helped hundreds of entrepreneurs acquire more than a billion dollars in small businesses. And his message is simple: you don't have to build from scratch to build something great.

There’s a challenge that comes with being known for what you do. When you move on you now have to figure out who you truly are. Deborah Santana spent more than three decades inside one of the most recognizable partnerships in American music as COO of the New Santana Band, co-architect of the Milagro Foundation, and the steady, contemplative presence behind a global touring life with her ex-husband, the legendary musician Carlos Santana. At an age when most people are quietly winding down, she did the opposite: she walked away from a 34-year marriage, dismantled the identity she had built around someone else's career, and started over. She earned a master's degree in her 60s, founded a new nonprofit (Do A Little), wrote a second memoir (Loving the Fire: Choosing Me, Finding Freedom), and became a trustee of major cultural institutions. But this is not a celebrity interview. It's an exploration of transitions and later-life reinvention. You’ll hear about her experience and the lessons she learned that may help you. She shares the foundational daily contemplative practice she built, the calendar block for herself disguised as “a meeting” she used to jump start her writing, and the people audit she did to illuminate who is toxic and who is the light in her life. Deborah describes how liberating it can be to be a beginner again, if you’re willing. I often say “You don't stop growing just because you retire.” But, it’s not just a saying and Deborah’s story is an case study. If you’re ready to let go of your past and discover who you truly are now, this conversation is for you. “When you have everything stripped away that you were known as, it is a wonderful opportunity to create exactly who you are.” — Deborah Santana You’ll walk away with: A vocabulary for the identity work that retirement requires. And not just for the “what's next” part, but also the words for the “who am I now” part. A useful framework (the Four C's) for organizing life after a major transition. A replicable practice for protecting time for the work of “becoming” even when the people around you don't quite yet understand what you’re doing. __________________________ Bio Deborah Santana is the author of Loving the Fire: Choosing Me, Finding Freedom, Space Between the Stars: My Journey to An Open Heart and the editor of the acclaimed anthology All the Women in My Family Sing. Her work has been featured by Vogue, Oprah, and NPR, among other national and literary outlets. She is the founder of the Do A Little Foundation, which supports women and girls in the areas of health, education, and happiness. Her work explores identity, social justice, spirituality, and the power of collective voice. She is mother to three artists: Salvador Santana, Stella Santana and Angelica Santana. She holds a Master of Arts in Philosophy and Religion with a Concentration in Women's Spirituality.

Most of us were trained to win at the game of life, deliver the results and get the promotion. Then one day, we arrive at retirement and discover that the game we were trained for isn’t the one that actually produces a flourishing life. New York Times best-selling author Daniel Coyle, joins us to discuss his new book Flourish: The Art of Building Meaning, Joy, and Fulfillment. He unpacks what five years of studying thriving communities (a Michigan deli, a major league baseball team, and a Vermont town that keeps producing Olympians) revealed about how good lives are actually built. We discuss: Why flourishing is a team sport in an age of individualism The difference between task attention and relational attention, and why the switch matters Why visioning may be the most useful tool for people approaching retirement Why we should probe for retirement rather than plan for it Yellow doors, the rule of surprise, and the two questions Dan uses as a personal compass If you’re approaching a transition, or you’re in the bewildering middle of one, this is a conversation worth your time and reflection. _________________________ Bio Daniel Coyle is the New York Times best-selling author of nine books, including Flourish: The Art of Building Meaning, Joy, and Fulfillment, The Culture Code (which was named Best Business Book of the Year by Bloomberg & Business Insider), and the Talent Code.

Why does real connection feel rare, even when you're constantly around others?I sit down with Michael Trainer, author of Resonance: The Art and Science of Human Connection, to question what we think we know about loneliness and human connection. His background in neuroscience and global initiatives brings a different lens to something most people assume is purely emotional.We challenge the idea that more people equals more connection. It becomes clear that the quality of your relationships directly affects your biology, from your nervous system to long-term health.I also get into my own experiences with confronting reality versus escaping it. This tension shows up clearly when we talk about psychedelics and healing and how they relate to sobriety.When your environment or relationships don't match who you are, your system responds.
