A 2021 Reality Check In for the 50+ Crowd with John Tarnoff #208
b'
Description:
I consider John Tarnoff to be a peer, colleague, and friend. John specializes in helping those in the 2nd half of life reinvent themselves. In 2017, he published his book, Boomer Reinvention: How to Create Your Dream Career.
Let me read you a snippet from his website.
After my startup went bust, I decided to go back to school to earn a Master\\u2019s degree in Spiritual Psychology \\u2013 a branch of behavioral psychology that focuses on self-responsibility and self-forgiveness as pathways to healing and change. I didn\'t think that I wanted to become a psychologist but I hoped to learn more about myself, what my strengths and weaknesses were, and what lessons I needed to learn to move forward.
Now, fifteen years later, as a career coach, author, and speaker, my mission is to support professionals over fifty to redefine, build and sustain second-act careers beyond traditional retirement. I\\u2019ve created a more personal-growth approach to career development, vs the traditional HR skills-based paradigm - starting with the notion that your ideal second-act career is already inside you.
John and I had a frank discussion on what is going on in the job market for the older worker and what we need to do to get through this. We have done this before and we will yet do it again.
