With nearly 46 million adults over the age of 65, what began in 1963 as a month to celebrate the “Older American”, has become a celebration of the Retiree Rebel spirit.
Mary Helen chats about three ways seniors can engage in their own plan to celebrate this year’s theme, Aging Out Loud. Mary Helen encourages each of us to Be Seen, to Be Heard and to Show Up in our lives, especially in our bonus years.
Hope you’ll join the hashtag #AgingOutLoud and share your ideas.

Great to have your encouragement
For 40 years I have been almost like a retire rebel with my hidden disability.
One great thing has happened to me recently and I’m doing my best to keep it going I thank many people who have supported me.
Betty Grotophorst says
