Synopsis

Creating Life On Our Own Terms

"Life is what you make it, has been, always will be"

Eleanor Roosevelt

Inspirational stories that illustrate life is what you make it, regardless of age and circumstance.

The inspiration for the Older and Bolder series of books came from chatting with dozens of men and women who range in age from their mid-50's to 100+ years. While each of their life stories are unique, they share some common threads. In the second half of life, they challenge the stereotypical belief that advancing age narrows down life choices. Their attitudes to life and their perspective on ageing is both insightful and inspirational. The collection of cameo life stories captured in this fourth book in the series, were documented in the midst of the COVID pandemic. In these challenging times, these individuals, who are in their 60's 70's 80's and 90's all live in New Zealand. They appreciate how lucky we are, and are optimistic about the future. It has been a privilege to have met these awesome men and women. It's with their permission that a lifetime of wildly different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives can be shared with you. Accepting that we all age differently, these individuals show us that whatever our age and circumstances, depending on our mindset, later life has the potential to be even more productive and fulfilling than what has gone before. Despite the curve balls many of us experience, these individuals continue to move out of their comfort zones, are expanding their horizons, and take advantage of the opportunities around them. They create their reality, and inspired by their example, so can we!
