Independent but Unprepared? A Conversation Every Solo Ager Should Have
If you are a woman living independently — without a spouse or nearby Family — there is an important question worth asking: Is your independence supported… or assumed?
Many successful, capable women reach their 60s and realize something surprising:
They’ve managed their lives well…
But they have not yet structured their future.
Questions begin to surface:
• Who would step in during a medical emergency?
• Is there a clearly designated Health care proxy?
• Who would help with daily logistics during a short illness or injury?
• Is there a real support network — not just acquaintances?
These are the realities of solo Aging.
To help women think through these issues before crisis forces decisions, I am hosting a free live webinar in May introducing a new program:
The Independent Solo Peer Group launching June 2026. Get on the list to receive more information about the free webinar: https://carolmarak.com/aging-solo-peer-group
This group is designed specifically for women 60+ who want to remain independent while putting intelligent structure around their future decisions.
