150. Too Young, Too Old, or Just Right? | We Thought 60 Looked Old

from Fire Up at 55 Plus · host Laurie Adams

Generation Jones … who me? We absorbed 1960s idealism as children. We watched Kennedy, King, and the moon landing on fuzzy televisions. We were told the world was going to be amazing. And then we grew up and got Watergate, stagflation, the AIDS crisis, and a job market that told us pensions were a thing of the past, so …Hard-working. Adaptable. We're the women of Generation Jones. Baby boomers who moved beyond, and we got to ride this wild wave of "the world is changing for women.” We didn't just watch it happen, we were in it. We were the first generation of women who broadly expected to have careers and families and an identity that wasn't just defined by one or the other. That sounds amazing, but also exhausting because nobody gave us a manual.I’m Laurie Adams — Certified Life Coach — and if you’re ready to take a meaningful next step, come work with me one-on-one.
