Squeezed in a late afternoon visit to the Berkeley Rose Garden. Stay tuned for more images in next week’s post!

Greetings from sunny California, where I have been planted the past week for the final in-person training session of my Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute teacher certification journey. I’ll be sharing more about that in next week’s post when I’ve had a bit more time to process what has been an intense and deeply impactful experience of growth, connection, and learning.

Today, though, let me introduce you to the older wiser Martha I would like to be when I grow up.

I met Martha Hendricks via her guest post Old Age Reconsidered on OxygenBuzz.com. At 77, Martha has this to say:

“…I relish the new hunger that I have found for discovering who I am yet to become. My purpose on this earth is far from done. What quietly profound surprises await my discovery? Ah, the possibilities!”

Now that you’ve had a tapas-sized taste of Martha’s inspiring perspective, I encourage you to read the “why” behind it…
