Connecting Across Miles: How Zoom Changed Us
from Boomer Banter, Real Talk about Aging Well
Today’s chat is all about the ups and downs of sheltering in place, and boy, do I have stories to share! So, I was all set to have my high school friend join us, but life had other plans when he and his wife got hit by COVID-19. Thankfully, they’re recovering at home, but that left me flying solo today. No worries though! I’m excited to pick up where we left off last week, diving into how this whole experience has changed us. It’s a chance to reflect on the silver linings we’ve discovered while being stuck at home. I mean, who knew we could learn so much about ourselves just by staying put? I’m ready to spill my own tea about what I’ve learned during this time! From being laid off to rethinking my path in life at 66, I realized it’s not just about finding any job. It’s about feeling fulfilled and relevant. I’ve had some lightbulb moments about how I want to contribute and make a difference, which is what I’ve always been passionate about. Plus, I’ve been connecting with my family and friends more than ever through Zoom, which has brought some much-needed joy into my life. It’s amazing how technology can keep us together, even when we’re apart. Now it’s your turn! I want to hear your stories too. What lessons have you learned during this shelter-in-place saga? Have you taken up gardening like me, or maybe you’ve started cooking more? Let’s share our experiences and keep this conversation going. It’s all about building a supportive community, and I can’t wait to see what you all have to say!

What this episode covers
This was kind of a lasts minute recording. My scheduled guest was sick with Covid-19, so I decided to continue the conversation from last week. We talked about the ways that sheltering at home has changed us. Some people feel that they are becoming better listeners. Some people felt that they are more connected with people that had lost touch with because of Zoom and having more time. I talked about what creating the Hey Boomer broadcast and community has meant to me. A couple of links were mentioned in this broadcast.
