A companion for ​that journey


​Traveling the third third of life can be both a joy and a challenge. The journey can be exciting and intimidating, 
exhilarating and unnerving, inspiring and bewildering.
It can propel a person into new possibilities or stop folks in their tracks.

Whether you are on this  journey or you are walking alongside someone who is navigating this stage of life,
​we hope that the opportunities, information, and resources you will find on this website will serve as a helpful traveling companion.
