See all- Re-Visioning Retirement: Entrepreneurship & Networking At Any AgeToronto Reference Library, Toronto, ON
Whether you're considering launching a business, rekindling a long-forgotten passion, or simply ready to chart your entrepreneurial course, this event will offer both motivation and a practical roadmap. Meet author, entrepreneur, and visioning advocate Dr. Susan Reid, who co-founded one of Canada's leading craft cider and spirits brands.
What if the next part of your life can have the most meaning? Dr. Susan Reid will share her entrepreneurial journey, explore the main question behind her empowering new book Re-visioning Retirement, and help you tackle the big questions, small breakthroughs, and challenging moments to inspire a fresh look at what's possible. It's never too late (or too early) to start crafting the life you truly want, with intention and clarity.
Dr. Susan Reid will be in conversation with Teri Hart, reporter and senior producer with over 30 years of broadcasting experience.
Following the Q&A will be an interactive, curated creative exercise and networking opportunity to mingle with like-minded Torontonians.
Join Dr. Susan Reid in conversation with Teri Hart for an inspiring evening that reimagines retirement not as an ending, but as a powerful beginning.
Presented as part of Small Business Month and Toronto Public Library's Small Business Networking (SBN) series, designed to spark connection, conversation, and possibility for Toronto's diverse entrepreneurial community.
