Episode Description
The baby boomer generation (born 1946-1964) is in a financial crisis. Most boomers do not have enough money saved for retirement, and want to continue working in any event. In his new book, BOOMER REINVENTION: How to Create Your Dream Career Over 50, career coach John Tarnoff lays out a proven methodology of 5 key steps and 23 actionable strategies to give boomers the resources and confidence they need to keep working. This “second act” career can be not only a financially successful one, but a personally fulfilling one as well. In this episode, we pick up from a previous interview as John shares insights on how to begin a career reinvention, and the reinvention experiences of some of the boomers profiled in his book. Whether you’re in need of a career reinvention yourself or perfectly content where you are, John’s witty and humorous style help us all stay positively focused on the world of work and all it can mean for us.
