On my way to 70 now, I am the oldest of our pearls of precious price. One thing I have learned is that, after fifty, the years start to blur and that wonderful illusion called agelessness takes over.
I am excited to be one of the leaders of our joint venture with you, our readers. My background in literature, writing, teaching, psychotherapy, and life coaching are integral parts of what I bring to you here. I have earned my living as a college instructor and counselor, a tutor for a university without walls, a Gestalt therapist, a demonstrator of barbecue grills, a marketing interviewer, and other assorted jobs (sometimes all at the same time) requiring various degrees of grit and humor.
I have several personal pearls that I bring to this string: Creative Aging for Women (a blog), You Can Write It Now (a blog), Coaching With W.I.T. (a blog), all based on my active participation in the developing field of Positive Psychology.
I am so happy to be partnering with two incredibly accomplished, creative women who share my enthusiasm and dedication to learning and growth. The wonderful thing about pearls is that the older they get, the more their inner luster shines through; and the more pearls on a string, the greater the beauty of the whole. Welcome!
