Today we’re talking about Halftime - moving from success to significance! Enjoy today’s episode and keep your comments and feedback coming.
Key Takeaways:
I had two extraordinary conversations this week. Two people, both retired, both doing the most important work of their lives. Two authors, Bob Buford and Marc Freedman, both talk about “Halftime”, or the period after 50 and before decrepit. Cathy Standiford, who you’ll hear from in an upcoming episode, is retired and a nonstop ball of energy working to empower women and girls with economic opportunity, particularly through education. She is in her 30th year volunteering with Soroptomist, her 2nd year with WriteGirl, and shows no sign of slowing down. Bill and I started working together on ShelterBox USA’s PR committee. My comment to Hannah after our conversation was simple: you’ve got a person at Halftime who’s chosen ShelterBox to do his most important work. Remember: Always err on the side of love & kindness Love & Gratitude, Rob
