Life Planning 

My book, SOLO AND SMART, guides people to design a supportive and secure lifestyle. Family caregiving was my wake up call. My parents relied upon me for help. But for me, I don’t have family to rely on and many others don’t either—their adult children live far away or their spouses have died, so they're left to fend for themselves. My book and classes teach people to create a satisfying and reliable future when living alone.     
Read my story.

Thank you, Creative Caregiving with Wendy Whiteman, to help get the word out about the fastest growing older adult market—solo agers.  They are single, childless, or living at a distance from adult children.  For solos, it's far better to prepare for the years ahead than to live in constant worry and concern about health, housing, care and support, finances, legal matters, and companionship in retirement and the years beyond.
