Issue # 30 |
Dear Friend,
Happy summer 2024.
This month, I'd like all of you to think about love and romance. For those of you who have a partner, June is the perfect time to make sure that you are spending time together and to make some special vacation plans for July and August.
For those of you who do not have a partner, you are part of a large tribe! There are over 60 million people over 50 who are single! Many of them are ready for a relationship, whether they are never married, widowed, or divorced. This summer, I'll be celebrating two friends (60 and 56 years old) who will be getting married, both for the second time.
When I heard the 60 million over 50 statistic from Laurie Gerber, a relationship and dating coach with a specialty practice for dating over 50, I knew that she would be a perfect guest for our ROAR community. |
|
This month, she offers some do’s and don'ts for dating over 50. I'm also very excited that Laurie will lead a one-hour Dating Over 50 workshop for all of you on July 10 at 7 pm ET. If you'd like to join, sign up on the link here. It's a complimentary session for our newsletter subscribers. (If you'd like to invite a friend, send them this newsletter for the link and ask them to sign up for future newsletters, too!) If you are single,
this is the perfect time to think about reinventing your life and embracing a relationship that fits your needs!

Also this month, we have guest voices from the founders of Camp REINVENTION, as well as two Re-Imagineers who are inspirations for us all. In her 50s, Jeanne Noonan has gone back to school to "refire" into a new career as an interior designer, a profession that has always interested her. And then there is Pat Torres, who I met in Broome, Australia, an amazing indigenous leader who continues to grow and expand as a lifelong
learner.
In last month's newsletter, you read about my 50+ adventure travel group's recent trip to Western Australia. |

Below you can read all about it in a story that I wrote for Esquire. You'll be awed by the Kimberley and our experience there.
On the subject of reinvention, I'm sure you saw how Sports Illustrated has completely reformatted its annual Swimsuit issue. This year, they included many women over 50, from Christie Brinkley and Tyra Banks to my friend and colleague Gayle King, who at 69 was one of the cover personalities (see the story below). It's a huge step for the inclusion of amazing women over 50. We need more of this in editorial, advertising, and roles in television and movies.
This ROAR newsletter is now read by over 20,000 subscribers, so you are part of a community of like-minded individuals who continue to grow, reimagine, and ROAR. Share your thoughts on other topics that you would like us to cover each month. It will be great to hear from you. I'm at michael@roarforward.com. |

In a pivotal moment for the representation of women 50+, Sports Illustrated breaks the age discrimination ceiling. See the attached article on my friend and colleague Gayle King, 69, who joined other age-busters!
