Adriane's mission is to change our concept of aging and the mature life stage to one of good health, excitement, and accomplishment. Baby boomer women are the best educated and most affluent group of women in history. Yet, many struggle with one unifying issue. They have no real place for contribution.

Adriane's books, podcasts, courses, and speaking open the world to better access to health care, technology, and prosperous living with the opportunity for personal satisfaction and lasting contribution.

As an influencer and spokesperson for successful aging, Adriane asserts:

"The world expects too little of its boomers and loses out on the skills and brainpower of millions of people. The tremendous age-inequality gap is more than economic. It is cultural, environmental, and attitudinal."

Her latest book, "The Retirement Income Explosion," (Amazon, www.RetirementIncomeExplosion.com ) guides boomers to a secure retirement with the freedom to make lasting contributions to family and to the world.

Adriane's many awards include

  • An Emmy for her T.V. work,
  • Best Radio Show Mature Market Winner
  • Women in Business Salon Award
  • Women of Influence New Jersey
  • Several National Librarian's Awards

It was totally unexpected and left me wondering how and why did this happen? As a health and menopause coach, I felt I was doing all the right things by exercising regularly, eating a healthy diet, limiting alcohol and caffeine, and taking my supplements. I knew I might be at higher risk since I am post-menopausal, small-boned, and chose not to use hormone replacement therapy due to personal reasons.   However, I felt I was doing well, especially since my fi…

The notorious Taylor Camp treehouse colony, populated by hippies living off the land, was in full swing. The now famous Tahiti Nui featured in the film The Descendants was a hole in the wall. I could hike the Kalalau Trail, tracing the rugged Napali Coast up to the roaring Hanakapi'ai Falls, and take a dip in the pool below, without seeing another soul. I never made it to the site of the sacred Hawaiian village at the end of the …

In 1978 Poipu Beach was a deep azure plunge where I floated in ecstasy. But in 1992 Hurricane Iniki carved out a new coastline. Today the crescent shaped white sand beach is still a favorite of sun worshippers, but the water is shallow with a bottom littered with coral rocks. It is popular with snorkelers and small children but is no longer the best swimming beach on the South Shore. Numerous resorts and condo complexes now line the …

In several ways: Tactiley -- the feel of the cloth and thread in my hand and fingers brings me a sense of calm. Audibly -- the sound of the pop of the cloth as the needle pierces the material from the other side. Audibly --the sound of the swish of the thread as it is pulled through to the top side of the piece where the picture is being created. Visually -- watching the different stitches build the picture. These small steps are a process of creation that brings me great joy. When I quiet my mind…
