Lessons on Service and Resilience from Veteran Beekeeper Chris Marquardt

What does the most fulfilling retirement look like?  Our guest Chris Marquardt offers an excellent picture of that: he has made an intentional geographical move with his wife of 36 years to a corner of the world that gives him peace and happiness.  He has learned a new skill, bee-keeping, that has helped him through his own PTSD, having served in the military for 24 years.  And he has found a way to share this passion and healing with other veterans.  This is an expansive conversation covering how to stay married for 36 years, deciding to make a move, building a new community, how he entered into bee-keeping, all of the details about keeping hives, how he began sharing this fascinating passion with other veterans, and his suggestions for building a great retirement.  Share this episode with others who seek to shape a meaningful retirement through service!On Facebook: Marquardt's All-American HoneyBattle Buddy Bees: https://marquardts-all-american-honey.square.site/
