Living Our Truth
Living our truth means embracing authenticity, pursuing passions, and unapologetically living by values. For Baby Boomers, it’s about breaking stereotypes and reclaiming our identity, especially as we are Aging. Whether it’s chasing a lifelong dream, rekindling Relationships, or fighting for a cause, our generation is characterized as resilient and resourceful, and leaving our mark on future generations is living our truth because we have learned from our mistakes in the past. Our experts in this section of the site explore how our past experiences of questioning authority, pushing back against societal norms, and fighting for equality, shaped our worldview and continue to drive our decisions today.
Our truth comes in redefining Retirement knowing that it is not the end, but the beginning of a new chapter where we explore hobbies, traveling and pursue personal Growth. We have the opportunity to rekindle connections with family and friends. We can give back through service to others. We can champion causes that we care about such as climate change, social justice, and healthcare reform. We can leave a Legacy that reflects our values and passions through Philanthropy, storytelling, or family traditions. Living our truth as we redefine aging, is embracing authenticity, pursuing passions, and living in alignment with our values, regardless of societal expectations.
