    Finding Purpose Beyond the Finish Line

    Retirement isn’t the end—it’s the beginning of my next great chapter. In my signature talk, “Retirement to Rewirement,” I challenge traditional views on aging and retirement, inspiring others to embrace a life of purpose, growth, and fulfillment.

    Redefining retirement as a new beginning, not an end

    Viewing it as a fresh start, not the end of a career—retirement offers growth, new opportunities, and meaningful contributions.

    Creating a personal roadmap for fulfillment and impact

    Developing a plan for fulfillment, impact, and purposeful living beyond traditional work.

    Unlocking passions and discovering what’s next

    Exploring interests and discovering what excites and motivates you in this next chapter.

    Overcoming the fear of change and stepping into a purposeful life

    Embracing uncertainty, adapting to new roles, and stepping confidently into a purposeful life.

    About Me

    I’ve always loved being on stage, from childhood talent shows to earning the title of Class Clown in high school. That love for creativity led to a 26-year career in education.

    With degrees in Liberal Arts, Psychology, and Education, I thrived as a primary and college-level educator. After retiring in 2015, I embraced “rewirement,” finding new ways to serve.

    Now a Certified Impact Life Coach, I help others live with intention, create roadmaps for success, and redefine aging with purpose. I’ve shared the stage with leaders like Todd Durkin and Drew Brees, bringing humor, heart, and inspiration to every talk.
