Sixtysomething Podcast - Bonus Episode 3 - My Story+

In this episode of "Sixtysomething", your host, Grace Taylor Segal, shares her personal journey from a carefree childhood in Belleville, Illinois, through challenging transitions, and various career shifts.

She reflects on her experiences, both the highs and lows, from working in hotels, newspaper marketing to running her own magazine business.

Grace explains the philosophy she's developed over her life's experiences that has seen her through to current peace, fulfillment and happiness.

She also recaps highlights from the first season of the podcast and gives a sneak peek into what's coming in season two.

Finally, she underscores the importance of caring, and meaningful connections, evoking memories of her beloved mother and never-forgotten neighbor, Mrs. Norbeck.
