Aging Well: Finding Beauty in the Gray
Aging Well: Finding Beauty in the Gray is a podcast for everyone in or approaching the retirement years. There’s a lot to unpack here apart from the financial planning component, and we’ll do just that. We’ll explore new interests, priorities and goals and finding purpose for ourselves and in our relationships. Join me each episode as I share stories and chat with guests learning to live their best next act, lives. Have a question or comment? Please reach out to me, Hugh Willard, at willowwaycreations@gmail.com or via any of the social media links at the top of this page.

Pickleball is a racquet/paddle sport that has risen from its humble beginnings in Bainbridge, Washington in 1965 to becoming a veritable tsunami sport of passion and play and community building, particularly among Third Age folks. Today there are numerous championships, both national and international, as well as an enormous groundswell of pickleball courts and participants of all levels and ages across the United States and beyond.
Peter Popovich is an avid pickleball, racquetball, and badminton player with the National Senior Games, having won gold medals in each sport. He is also an Ambassador for the Senior Games, advocating and spreading the good word about this wonderful organization. He's on the show this week to share some of his experiences with pickleball, especially with respect to how socially engaging and community oriented this sport is. Please join us!
