publisher's note Baby boomers. The youngest boomer will be turning 56 years old this year while the oldest turns 74. For now, let’s agree that the majority of boomers are close to or in their 60s, meaning that most are looking forward (or not) to retirement, are already retired, have some sort of modified work life, or are still full throttle at their jobs and careers. That’s quite a disruptive decade to be living through, to say the least. And who’s to say that this fluidity doesn’t continue, especially as boomers search for what’s next, knowing they may have another 20 or 30 years - or more, to be active and productive. Go boomers! So with those two or three decades still ahead of us, how do we make the most of these years? Physically, emotionally, socially, financially. How do we create our best life? To help answer these questions, we've created the Booming BETTER Expo. Taking place on Sunday, September 13, at Manhattanville College in Purchase, NY, this event – now in its second year - will showcase professionals and experts, across a variety of fields, who can empower and guide us all toward a stronger, healthier, and purpose-filled life. Because we believe so strongly that we all deserve and should
have the essential tools and resources to get us on our best path, whatever that means individually, we're providing all sorts of goodies to make sure you attend: from a free lunch (pre-registration required via the website below) and a very nice raffle prize (yes, that would be $500) to free wellness screenings, fitness classes and access to world-class doctors – at no charge! The day is still evolving as we bring on more vendors, activities, authoritative presenters and experiential programming. Join us for part or all of the day. Turn to pages 24 and 25 to get a lay of the land and stay tuned by checking out the Booming BETTER Expo at westchesterseniorvoice. com or boomingbetter.com. All roads lead to the event! So please take advantage of this fun, informative and engaging day with others who also know we can truly create changes for the better: for us and for our families. And you never know who you might meet! Wishing us all love and peace,
