Description
If you’re over 50 or retired and wondering why life doesn’t feel as fun as you expected, this video is for you.
Somewhere between careers, responsibilities, and decades of being “the dependable one,” many of us lose our sense of play and retirement doesn’t automatically bring it back. In this video, I’m sharing what fun used to look like for me, how it slowly slipped away, and what it feels like to try and reconnect with it again.
