IN 2014, EVERY BABY BOOMER WILL HAVE REACHED THE
MILESTONE AGE OF FIFTY. FOR MOST, IT’S NOT AN END BUT THE
BEGINNING OF SOMETHING NEW.
This is the
awakening of a generation to the opportunities that lie
ahead. Research has shown that people in their fifties are
more vital now than they were only ten years ago. They’re
saying, “I’m game, I’m up for it, I want to do more.”
Jane Pauley, one of America’s most beloved and trusted
broadcast journalists, gives voice to the opportunities of
her generation—and the next one too—offering humor and
insight about the journey forward. Your Life Calling
is a fresh look at ideas that have been simmering since
boomers first entered midlife with a different perspective
on the future than any generation before: that there was
more to come—and perhaps the best of all.
Jane is
not an advice giver but a storyteller. Here she tells her
own and introduces readers to the fascinating people she has
featured on her award-winning Today show segment,
Life Reimagined Today. You’ll meet Betsy McCarthy,
who traded in her executive briefcase for knitting needles;
Gid Pool, who launched a career as a stand-up comic; Richard
Rittmaster, who joined the National Guard Chaplain Corps;
Trudy Lundgren, who took her home on the road in an RV;
Paulie Gee, who opened a successful pizzeria in Brooklyn;
and many more. Their stories are delightful, compelling, and
inspiring for anyone asking “What am I going to do with my
supersized life?”
