When Retirement Strains Relationships
The author of "Too Much Togetherness" explains why retirement can be stressful.
The EndGame podcast discusses every aspect of positive aging. Geared to listeners who are "chronologically gifted," it gives voice to authors, experts, and ordinary people who have helpful perspectives and advice for elders. The focus is on aging with joy and purpose.
Miriam Goodman, an accomplished journalist, award-winning radio and television producer, and author of Too Much Togetherness: Surviving Retirement as a Couple, tackles such topics as:
Do retired men turn into their fathers?
Why retirement is a feminist issue
The G-men: Ghost, Glommer, Grumbler, Gypsy, General
Why women should not feel guilty about having free time
And, as a special bonus, she also talks about her Village in San Francisco and how it works to help elders age in place successfully.
