Young seniors often feel the early effects of aging. Not being as strong or flexible today as they once were is a common warning sign that what was once possible with ease is becoming a struggle. Maintaining a home becomes more difficult, keeping up with meal preparation evolves into a challenge, and common personal care practices may suffer. A choice needs to be made. Do you move to find help with these things or bring the help in? Sometimes aging in place simply is no longer an option. A move is needed.
When you see the handwriting on the wall, you need this course. Take it before you have to move, and you’ll be better prepared when the time comes.
In addition to an opening Zoom meeting on Monday night from 7pm to 10pm ET and Blackboard interactions Tuesday through Friday, one optional Zoom meeting may be held on Friday at 7pm Eastern Time. The Zoom meetings will not be recorded.

About the Instructor
Ed Zinkiewicz believes that retirement should not get in the way of being engaged, finding purpose, or becoming joyful. When he retired from a successful career in business management and software development in 2011, he began a second career as a motivational leader, speaker, and author who encourages retirees to start that adventure for themselves.
Ed also is an aging-in-life strategist and realizes that growing older brings a new set of challenges. The next steps in this process may include giving up the car keys, putting up with people hovering about “helping,” or leaving behind a much-loved homestead.
Ed and his wife Crys recently left their home of 46 years behind to find a new home in a retirement community. This transition has given Ed a rich source of detail that can help others make this transition with less stress and end with a better life.
