Join us for a fireside chat with Karen, a retired nurse who found a new purpose in her next chapter, one vintage dish at a time.
After 38 years in nursing, Karen retired earlier than she'd planned and wasn't sure what would come next. She turned a longtime love of vintage dishes into a booth at an antique mercantile, with no retail experience and no business plan. What started as a six-month experiment became, in her words, "cheaper than therapy," and brought her creativity, a reason to keep learning, and a new community.
In this fireside chat, Karen will share how she navigated the transition out of a long career, how she found her footing after those first uncertain months, and why she believes there's "more to retirement than a recliner life." Come hear her story, and we'll leave plenty of time for your questions as well.
Please note: This is a camera-on discussion — please join by video with your camera on for the session.

This event is part of the Chapter Community, a space for people in or approaching retirement to connect, explore, and try new things, together. We kindly ask that participation be limited to this community, so the space can stay true to its mission.
