Top Sixty Over Sixty

Stage: Active Aging activities in place

Following a formal career as an educator in senior leadership roles I founded Top Sixty Over Sixty because I recognized the impact that ageism was having on individuals, society and our economy. Having witnessed how internalized ageism was limiting friends and colleagues' self-image and beliefs, I created programs: to help overcome self-directed ageism; transition with purpose to next stage of life; shift stages with an entrepreneurial mindset. All are based in research and offered virtually or in person in supportive, learning groupings. As a niche age positive consultancy, we work with organizations and businesses to promote age inclusivity in their diversity initiatives. Visit www.topsixtyoversixty.com
