Empowering Widows Financially
Storyteller Inspiring Legacy and Longevity Planning
As a zesty Boomer, I gratefully continue to create and contribute. I'm happily using my skills and experiences to encourage others to live their best lives.
Now in my 78th year, I love being "reFired"! That’s NOT vintage retirement. Instead, this 4th life chapter is about family, fun, focused-purpose, friends, and fitness--of body, mind, spirit, and money.
I enjoy writing stories about widows and money as well as pieces about legacy and longevity. I continue speaking at selected conferences and lifelong-learning events. Plus, I help nonprofits grow their endowments.
​
As a teacher at heart, I'm Adjunct Faculty at The American College of Financial Services, for their Chartered Advisor in Philanthropy program.
Since my guidebook for widows was published after my late husband's death, I've moved forward in many ways. Transformation with reinvention is exhilarating! I hope my tools, articles, videos, and podcasts on this website pique your interest.

Thanks for your interest in my work.
