“Women, Retirement and the Power in Aging”

There are nearly 78 million Baby Boomers (individuals born between 1946-1964) who have a history of influencing every aspect of life in America.  As they enter traditional retirement, mature Boomers are likely to continue changing the social landscape, but this time they are rethinking and redefining retirement, altering the views on aging and reassessing the future roles of gender. At the end of this next decade, women in America will make up a simple majority of everyone over the age of 65 and by 2040 there will be two females, 60 and older, for every male counterpart.

Having achieved higher education, more freedom, greater influence in the workplace, and full partnership in human affairs, these women will experience aging and longevity differently than did their mothers and other women in previous generations.  As a growing force of a generation known for affecting change, how will these women change the face of retirement? Change the view of aging?  How will the virtues of mature women influence our social structure, communities and relationships?  What part of the Grandmother Hypothesis explains the role of this generation of women? 

We invite you join us to explore these questions, to examine the goals of women that use the power of aging to make a difference and to discovery your power and your wisdom to create your next life chapter.
