Meet Connie Inukai, a 76-year-old dynamo who is shattering age-related stereotypes and redefining what it means to thrive after 65. 

A former college professor turned “Grandmapreneur,” Connie is an award-winning innovator, entrepreneur, and author dedicated to helping others realize their dreams at any age. 

Connie turned her Retirement into a period of flourishing creativity and entrepreneurship.

From her invention of the “Tip and Split” device – a fave on QVC – to her empowering books and resources like “Retirement: Dream Big, Take Action, Make Money” and “How I Got My Product on QVC,” Connie exemplifies the limitless potential of embracing life during the Renaissance Years. 

Tune in as Connie shares her journey, the importance of storytelling, and her latest Innovation “Write Your Selfie,” where she helps folks tell their life stories through a photobook.

I know you’ll find inspiration and ideas from this conversation to help you pursue new opportunities and dreams!
