I had great role models when it came to not living like everyone else. My parents sold their restaurant of 25 years and lived on a sailboat. Then they worked as a chef and hostess at a cattle ranch. Then they lived in the Turks and Caicos. Now in their late 80s and still living on their own.

I followed their example by stepping down from my 27 year therapy practice and starting a real estate business with my husband.

Living like everyone else is boring. 🤣

I love this.

I recently started learning ChatGPT for personal and professional use, and felt old and behind starting this at 49. This piece is such a refreshing perspective on reinvention, courage, and living life to the fullest at any age!
