Not retirement. Reinvention.
Creating Your Encore Life is for high-achieving professionals ready to design their next chapter with purpose, relevance, and impact.
Hosted by Lynn R Friesth, this podcast helps you transform a lifetime of experience into meaningful work, income, and a portfolio life that fits who you are now.
You're not done yet.
You're just getting started—on your terms.
Episode 226: I'm Not Done Yet— And Neither Are You
In episode 226 of Creating Your Encore Life, recorded on the my 76th birthday, I return after a pause spent caring for my mother, handling her passing, writing a book, and building a custom AI.
I reintroduce the podcast's focus on experienced professionals 55+ who are approaching or in retirement and feel called to something more. I address common tensions in leaving corporate life—identity shifts, the fear of irrelevance, and how to use a "wisdom dividend" built from years of experience and people challenges.
I discuss becoming a "company of one," using AI as leverage, and previews my book "Not Done Yet: Work Worth and Wisdom in the Age of AI," with the podcast serving as a living laboratory while I finish it.
I invite listeners to subscribe, share, and try my free Lynn AI via show notes.
