Meet People in Online Communities with My Plan After 50

Extra! Extra! Read all about it! The strength of one’s social community is identified as the #1 predictor of a vibrant life after 50 for Boomers!

So, how are you at meeting people? How much of your community of friends is work-based, and what will become of those relationships as you move through life after 50? Here are some things to ponder:

  • Work is the most common way we meet people and form social communities
  • Retirement or other work-related changes Boomers will experience can negatively impact our social communities
  • Expanding our community of friends takes intentionality and time; and, for many Boomers, courage.

But wait! There’s a new, rapidly growing phenomenon we Boomers are appropriating from the young: meeting people through websites like My Plan After 50 and developing online communities of those with similar life experiences and interests.

Through My Plan After 50, you can choose to join or create ever-expanding online communities of Boomers, and establish life-long acquaintances and friendships. Here you will meet people through:

  • The library
  • Blog topics and webinars
  • Sharing information from your My Plan After 50 online workbook, and
  • Inviting My Plan members to join your personal list of “My Friends”

And, of course, you can bring your existing social community into My Plan After 50, as well, inviting people to grow with you towards shared lives that are rich and vibrant!

A My Plan After 50 life or retirement coach can also be invaluable to those Boomers for whom meeting people is difficult and, therefore, critical to their life after 50 plan. Explore all the rich resources available to you as a MEMBER of My Plan After 50.
