Women Over 70: Aging Reimagined


009 Roni Buckley: Volunteering & Connecting

August 07, 2019

In this episode, Gail, Catherine and Roni discuss:



  • Life enriching benefits of volunteering.
  • Opportunities for growth that come from experiences of loss and deficit.
  • The value of community and connection for women as they age.

Take-Aways:


Remaining vibrant is a key goal as we age-- by sharing the “I get it” space with other women; by intentionally engaging in new learning and reinventing yourself; by sharing your talents with others in need; by believing in your own, and others, self- worth.



“I define myself first and foremost as a volunteer. My life as a volunteer has helped me develop greater empathy and put judgment aside. I feel enormous gratitude for witnessing people reach their goals.” - Roni Buckley
