The Story of My Daughter

by LeAura

My amazing and beautiful daughter—Devani Anjali Alderson—turns 24 today, 2/17/19. As many of you know, Devani was adopted from India. …

Have you always dreamed of traveling? As a passion coach helping people identify and discover what lights them up, I’ve noticed that living the travel dream finds its way into many people’s top 10 passions list. You can take “the passion test” and learn more on how to delineate your own in this book: The Passion Test by Janet Atwood.

Is it on yours? Where have you traveled? We’d love to hear about your travels or travel dreams. Feel free to comment on the BoomersReinvented Facebook Page.

Doris Gallan and Jacob Frank, are living their travel dream. Husband and wife co-founders of Baby Boomers Traveling, planned and executed their voyages to 50+ countries on all 7 continents. They’ve been around the world twice and have lived in six countries so far.

So, if you’re into travel, we’re delighted to share with you our conversation with Doris Gallan, brought to you by the wonders of modern technology, all the way from Vietnam!

Right now she and her husband Jacob Frank live in Vietnam, which is exactly 12 hours ahead of us during Daylight Savings Time. So when we talked, it was her morning and almost my bedtime, but it was so interesting speaking with her that I was not at all tired.

Doris has so many interesting stories and experiences, that I could’ve talked with her for hours, and not run out of questions and things to learn about. I hope you enjoy it. Let us know!

Doris and Jacob practically adopted Pham, whose family lives far away.

Doris is a Baby Boomer who quit the corporate life, sold her home and everything she owned, and started traveling and living abroad in 2006. In the nine years since leaving Los Angeles, she has traveled around the world visiting 45 countries and all 7 continents. She currently lives in Vietnam, along with her husband, Jacob Frank, where she teaches hospitality and tourism to university students.

So if you’ve always wanted to travel, don’t wait. Our greatest growth lies on the other side of our comfort zone, so get out of that cozy armchair, and begin to plan your next trip.

BUT… if you don’t have the money to travel the way you’d like to, consider this: one of the things about travel that most of us love is the exposure to new things. We walk new streets and drive through new cities, with a beginner’s mind. We’re looking everywhere; noticing everything. Chances are most of us don’t do this in our own cities and towns. So if you can’t travel, consider taking a drive through your own town. Look into upcoming events and attend. Try a new restaurant and new cuisine, such as the kind from the country you’d love to visit next.

There are many ways to renew ourselves and travel into adventure and new experiences without leaving town. So don’t wait.

“Do the thing and you will have the power.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

Your Gift to the World

by LeAura

[Pardon the occasional internet freeze in this video. It’s mostly brief and in the first half].

What’s your gift to the world?

Inquiry

Do you know?

Hint: it begins with “Y”.

It’s YOU!

So… who are YOU… really?

Do you sometimes feel like you’ve not yet even begun tapping into your amazing potential? Are you ready to get on with what it is you’re really here to do?

Originality

How and where do you begin?

Tune into this engaging interview with Jamie Greenberg “chief originologist” and branding wizard at A Brand YOU way to get a head start on discovering this for yourself.

Jamie gets it.

Jamie has an intuitive eye and a knack for cutting through to your essence, holding it up to the light to marvel at, then carefully constructing the best form or vehicle for presenting that to the world.

I want to find out what’s great about everybody. Jamie Greenberg @aBrandYOUway

Click To Tweet

Refinement

In my diligent auto-didactic pursuit with numerous coaches and programs, Jamie was able to accomplish in short order what most were not able to do at all: laser in on the soul of who I am and what gifts I can best bring into the world. Then he helped me hone in on creative ways to share that more fully with the world.

Jamie is like the stone cutter with an eye for cutting the diamond in a way that reveals its hidden beauty and authentic lines. He’s gifted at helping people discover and position their essence into their best brand through his company, A Brand You Way.

Vision

Jamie and I both coach people, and yet we’ve each benefit from coaching each other. The best coaches also continuously seek coaching. The diamond needs the jewelers help to shine. The jeweler needs the diamond to reveal his own brilliance and artistry.

Those who are determined to grow increasingly more conscious and self-aware, seek input regularly, from various sources, ever tweaking and adjusting toward better. That’s how all life on earth grows best: tap in, tune in, grow, adapt, refine, shine, repeat.

Dream

Many people today feel that something is missing in their lives… that they’re missing the mark but can’t quite put their finger on what that mark is.

Whenever we feel out of sorts, it’s usually an indication that we may be slightly off course.

Those emotional rough spots are like the bumpy shoulder of the highway that signals we’ve strayed off the main road. Inner agitation and depression is often a message from our soul. It may be the message that it’s time to get on with our real work. Jamie can help with that.

Your purpose supports your vision, and your passion fuels your purpose. @aBrandYOUway

Purpose

Most boomers have amassed a reservoir of experience, skills and wisdom to draw from and share, but may not be clear on some of the best ways to do that. Jamie talks about how his four phase process lasers in to help you identify your “why and then your “what”.

When you think about it, it makes so much more sense to get paid doing what you love, than to continue to work more years doing something you don’t.

When you’re doing work you love, it’s no longer work. It’s joy!

I didn’t want to die never having sung my song. @aBrandYOUway

Click To Tweet

Don’t leave your song unsung, your canvas half painted, your book unwritten, and dreams unrealized.

Craft

Jamie can help you snag your “gorgeous chaos moments”, and identify your focus… your diamond or “tagline”, and then identify the setting or process for manifesting it.

Your tagline has to be a description of your promise of value. @aBrandYOUway

Click To Tweet

Manifest

Tune into this video interview to hear Jamie’s story, and some valuable tips on his four key pillars of Vision, Purpose, Passion and Values. He can help you refine and craft yours into an authentic brand that’s your gift to the world.

NOW is the best time to start.

Jamie Greenberg, Chief Originologist and founder of A Brand YOU Way

Jamie Greenberg is father of two and long time spouse to the inspired word artist, author, writer, and extraordinarily creative Ali Skylar, whom we also interviewed on Boomers Reinvented. After years of running a successful entertainment agency and helping his family grow and sell a multi-million dollar toy company, Jamie’s passion is to inspire and mentor YOU on how to tap into the miraculous power of YOUR originality and “personal brand” so you can live the life you’re SUPPOSED to live!

Turning Assets into Income

by LeAura

SHIFTING FINANCIAL PARADIGMS

One of the best ways to succeed in whatever we do is to learn from those who know more than we do about our given area of interest, and who have achieved more than we have in whatever area we’re seeking growth.

I’m super optimistic about the world these days.

I’m optimistic, primarily because I do not tune into the media of negativism and fear. Instead, I tune into interesting people who are living extraordinary lives, and I learn from them daily.

Interview, Patrick Donohoe, Paradigm Life, LeAura Alderson, Financial Fitness, Financial Education, Investment Strategies, Inifnite Banking, Wealth Generation, Best Boomers and Beyond, Baby Boomers, Gen X, Be Your Own Bank, Entrepreneurs, Robert Kiyosaki, Whole Life Insurance, — Boomers have more opportunities today to become their own boss and live the lives of their dreams, than ever before.

There are thousands of inspiring people of all ages, in new creative endeavors. I get especially excited seeing baby boomers embarking on new adventures as they work to reinvent themselves during their second half of life, and there are more opportunities today to become your own boss and live the life of your dreams than ever before.

Many of the most inspiring people I consider my teachers and mentors are Generation X and Y entrepreneurs, such as Patrick Donohoe—a Gen X-er. These are the 25-45-something year olds who are changing paradigms, working outside the box and thinking expansively from an impressive innate wisdom.

Patrick Donohoe is one such on a mission to empower people with financial education so they can make better choices and have the freedom which comes from greater financial wealth.

Communication between the generations is paramount. Patrick Donohoe

What’s so cool about today, more than any other time in history, is that we can all learn from each other. The elders are no longer just the “keepers of wisdom”, and in my experience, when we allow ourselves to learn from each other as contributing, productive human beings, no matter the age, we’re all better of.

We’re delighted to have the opportunity to catch up with Patrick and hear from him, what he’s invested in, what resources he utilizes and what’s important in his life. So, get your cuppa favorite brew and please join me in learning more about Patrick Donohoe.

A few highlights from Patrick follow this, but do not replace the ambiance of hearing from Patrick live. You will see near the end, what really lights him up… and I think you’ll be able to relate, but let us know in your comments below or on our Facebook page, what you enjoyed most about this interview.

Interview Preview

Patrick Donohoe: It’s a really cool time to live… and it’s based on your perspective, and that determines [your] reality, and even though it’s crazy and chaotic… it’s one of the coolest times to be alive.

Patrick’s company offers a financial tool that helps people to become their own banker and self-financier, while maintaining the benefit of whole life insurance. This is a financial product controversial to some not educated on the concept, and Patrick’s mission is to help people make informed decisions, by offering free educational videos and articles on the topic through his company’s site:

It’s always good to consider multiple opinions and multiple perspectives. Patrick Donohoe

Patrick Donohoe: If you just have one perspective on something, you’re taking a gamble as to whether it’s right or wrong for you. So it’s good that there’s a lot of critics. It’s the stages that truth goes through, where it’s not just accepted as truth, but it goes through a rebuke and goes through some criticism. If you address something rationally… it gives people a chance to evaluate and decide.

Entrepreneurs have existed since humans could think, and believe me, entrepreneurs are figuring out ways to solve your problems. Patrick Donohoe

Patrick Donohoe, is an inspiring and successful young entrepreneur, passionate about financial education that helps people make more informed choices. He’s working to shift old paradigms about wealth, by making once exclusive financial tools utilized by the wealthy, available to all who are interested in exploring clever and creative options for turning assets into income.

It’s good that there’s a lot of critics. It’s the stages that truth goes through. Patrick Donohoe

There’s a plethora of information out there about financial vehicles and investing. So much that it could be overwhelming. But don’t let it discourage you. Rather, take it on as a sort of “brain gym” exercise… a puzzle to figure out that helps keeps your mind agile and young through the learning process.

When you make a decision, make a decision based on your [informed] knowledge, not on somebody else’s. Patrick Donohoe

We think you’ll enjoy tuning into this interview with Patrick Donohoe, a leader and entrepreneur, who has built a large, highly successful company, based on teaching financial education and helping others to achieve financial freedom.

Leading with Strength, Against All Odds

by LeAura

If you were told you’d never walk again, would you accept those words as truth? Fortunately for her family and clients, Kathie Nelson did not sit down, lay down and give up, when it seemed like her life was over.

Instead again all odds, she began leading with strength. First getting her own life back together, then climbing back to physical ability and business success.

Because of that… because Kathie has pushed through incredible personal challenges, to get to be where she is today, she’s able to helps her clients achieve their best.

Kathie is a compassionate, but results driven visionary, guiding business leaders to achieve and succeed.

In fitness, personal trainers push you to your own success because they’ve first achieved their own. In business, it’s the same with good business coaches.

Kathie discovered that about herself the hard way, but it’s a lesson she turned into a success story, in running her own business and life, and helping her clients do the same.

Through Kathie’s various life circumstances, which she shares in this interview, she decided at a very young age, to never be dependent on someone else again. That’s actually a pivotal life circumstance for many entrepreneurs, and especially women, because then it’s not just about job independence, but also relationally.
