  • Love the Variety of Fascinating Guests

    I really enjoy hearing other people’s stories and in particular those who are in the better half of their life as I find it so inspiring.

    Wendy has a great conversational style and I can tell she does her homework in learning a bit about her guests before the interview, which helps her ask questions and make comments that are relevant.

    I highly suggest this to anyone to listen to, but in particular if you are in a later season of life like I am!

  • Engaging and Relevant

    Great conversations about topics we want to know about with great help on how to handle them better. Just listened to your episode on Medicare. Such valuable information about a complex system we all need. I also enjoyed your solo show on finding your purpose after retirement. Great and practical suggestions.
