What One Failed Video Taught Me

Today's video is about something most people in the retirement space don't talk about openly: memory. A lighthearted video I made earlier unexpectedly taught me a deeper lesson about audience, assumptions, and the fears many of us carry about aging. What I intended as an Erma Bombeck-style story about getting wrapped up in a project became a reminder that words, stories, and experiences are filtered through the concerns people already have. For many retirees, memory isn't just memory. It's independence, identity, and the fear of losing oneself. This short reflection is less about hair and more about what I learned from the reaction. #womenover60 #afterage60 #vlog #retirement #lifeafter60 #youtubevideo
