60 and More Crowd: Off To Work We Go!
Welcome to the 60 and More Crowd Podcast: Off To Work We Go trailer. I am your host, Sue broadcasting from Canada.. This is a new podcast series, and we’re digging into something a lot of us are living: the decision to keep working.
Whether you’ve hit a traditional retirement age and aren’t ready to stop, or you’ve “retired” only to find yourself back on the job, you’re not alone. Turns out, both are on the rise. Many people are saying they plan to work into their 70's or longer more than any previous generation. We look at North American trends and a bigger picture global view. These are short on the go episodes less than 10 minutes. Worker longevity is a multi-layered topic and future episodes will feature various aspects of this growing trend.
I relate and connect to this topic. This podcast was created and inspired from my ground level experience and perspective as an older worker. Exploring the new work marketplace, after leaving my longtime sales/marketing career role became a high interest topic that I dug into and continue to learn about.
