I’m Still Retired!

Doing What I Want When I Want

As most of my friends, family, colleagues, and clients know, I finally retired on September 8, 2020. I started the first of my three companies in 2008, and before that, I had two other careers.

The decision was hard because I’ve worked part- or full-time for over 54 years, ever since I graduated from high school and started college at age 16. Even when had summers off as a teacher, I still worked most summers.

But it was also easier than I thought to just STOP WORKING. I canceled all of the speaking engagements on my calendar, as well as the podcast recordings I had scheduled for the next two months. I told all of the people who were leads and prospects that I would no longer be accepting new clients.

Many people were shocked because they knew how much I love what I do. But it was time.

Now, little-by-little, I am adding back those activities that I really enjoyed doing, and I am doing them whenever I want.

Find out what I’ll be doing next and keep up with my new life here.
