Let's Talk: Planning for Solo Aging
Details
What does it mean to grow older on your own terms, especially if you're aging without a partner or nearby family?
In this facilitated discussion, we'll explore the realities of solo aging, both the emotional side (building support networks, easing the worry of isolation) and the practical planning around housing, healthcare, finances, and decision-making.
To ground the conversation, we'll draw on these short reads (optional, but a great primer):
- "Going Solo: How to Plan for Retirement When You're on Your Own" (The New York Times)
- "For Solo Agers, A Roadmap for a Secure Future" (Next Avenue)
- "Navigating Life as a Solo Ager: What You Need to Know" (Talkspace)
This is a discussion, not a lecture. You'll have open space to share your own experience or simply listen to others, whatever feels right for you.
