Interview highlight..' Thank you Lynn Price - Camp To Belong!



I got a nice note today from Lynn Price, Founder at Camp To Belong alerting me to a shout out she provided on her LinkedIn news feed for Ageless Startup.  Thank you Lynn!  

 Lynn provided a great interview for Ageless Startup.  When I asked her what was the best piece of advice she would share with someone in the second half of life considering entrepreneurship, she answered with the following:  "Do it!  It is an opportunity to live your passion, be a role-model for your family, make a difference in something meaningful to you, and leave a legacy of caring through action."

 Lynn's role at Camp to Belong (borrowed from LinkedIn)...
"Lynn Price, founder of Camp To Belong, had a vision to create significant connection opportunities for siblings who had been separated through the foster care system. Lynn successfully created a replicable program model and sales approach to tackle one of society's greatest challenges in various sectors of child welfare. Lynn expanded the category of social entrepreneurship with this international non-profit dedicated to reuniting brothers and sisters placed in separate foster homes or other out-of-home care. Her focus is primarily on summer camps for separated siblings, which have become the catalyst for new legislation regarding sibling placement and visitation, recruitment of more foster and adoptive families for siblings and enhanced best practice among child welfare professionals."

Thank you for all you do Lynn.  Lead on!  

You can be an ageless entrepreneur as well.

New podcast interview - Humanitarian Entrepreneur

Image
I had a great conversation recently with Tiffany Moore at The Humanitarian Entrepreneur podcast. Among other things, we focused on opportunities for older entrepreneurs (3:27), what are the biggest myths that entrepreneurs face in the second half of their lives (5:04), the Center for Ageless Entrepreneurs, and the importance of teams. (12:18) Among my favorite takeaways was this: "We work in teams now and those with the best teams win. The idea is ot get yourself armored up so you can protect yourself and your family as you run your business. Then get into a team. That's why we're building these networks." - Rick (11:20) Thanks Tiffany for a great conversation!

Our Ageless Startup

Image
Hi. The evolution of ideas surrounding work life in the second half of life has been significant. I started writing my blog - Sustainable Work - in 2005. From that start I wrote most of the book Ageless Startup in 2018-19. Ageless Startup was published by Entrepreneur Press in 2020 - in the same month the COVID-19 pandemic was declared in the U.S. For those of us working in or building one-person enterprises, the economic turbulance of the past few years supports our position. I'm going to use the next batch of posts to capture individual reviews and interviews that I want to be able to reference later. Thanks for following along.
