Season 2 Trailer: This podcast is about more than taking a gap year
SUMMARY
Turns out this podcast is about MORE than taking a gap year after the age of 50 or 60. It’s about taking a look at all the aspects of what’s next when you are in mid-life and beyond.
We publish a new episode every other Friday.
EPISODE NOTES
The term gap year symbolizes so much more than taking a time out. It is a frame for examining such topics as reinvention, a new purpose, aging with wisdom, trying new things, bucket list travel, a new approach to health and well-being, and more. All the topics that relate to living well in this stage of life.
My guests in Season 2 will be a mix of inspiring individuals who are taking or have taken grown-up gap years along with well-known authors and experts on all the topics I’ve mentioned.
Join us on this new season of Gap Year for Grown-Ups, and let’s dive deep… into what’s next.
