Finding Purpose In Retirement

Earlier this summer, I had the opportunity to participate in an episode of the Next Chapters podcast series that explored the challenges that women face in trying to find purpose and satisfaction in their retirement years. I was asked to talk about my own journey which has involved a couple of major transitions — first moving from a 30 year career as a corporate executive to leading a large non-profit organization, and then embarking on an artistic career following my retirement in 2015. The other guests were academics who have devoted their careers to exploring various aspects of women’s careers and retirement.
