The Clueless Caucasian Podcast
Hey everyone, and welcome to The Clueless Caucasian. After 35 years in the workforce, I finally punched out for good, thinking I knew a thing or two. Turns out, I was oblivious to how much the world had actually shifted. For decades, my head was down: raising a family, chipping away at my education, and just, you know, working hard. But now, five years into retirement, I've realized something: there were so many things I could've done differently to make life, and even my relationships, so much richer.
