Age is Just a Number. Impact is Forever
I spent my career as a technical writer, focusing on the ‘how-to’ of machines. Now, at 63, I’m focusing on the ‘how-to’ of the human spirit. I’ve been blogging for over 13 years because I believe that social media isn’t a young person’s game—it’s a storyteller’s game.
Whether you’re 50 or 80, your voice has more value now than it ever did.
