Change is Inevitable!

I keep close contact with senior communities and for the most part they are experiencing record numbers of ‘tours’ in their respective senior living communities. I expected this to happen as so many boomers and their parents have waited out the pandemic and now are taking action on their desire to downsize and move to a new lifestyle. I am not just talking about the ‘silent generation’ (born 1925-1945), but ‘baby boomers’ (born 1946-1964). Both of these groups constitute a whopping 67 million homeowners ready to make their move in the next few years. Yes, many of you will stay. But the future is now, and we are starting to see the effects of this movement in real time.

Understanding Senior Clients

When I began working with seniors on behalf of the senior care industry many years ago, I was determined to be a valued resource to them. But on my way to accomplishing that I had a rude awakening. In my youthful exuberance I didn’t begin to understand senior’s issues. I had answers, but they weren’t necessarily the answers my clients needed.

What is Behind the Looking Glass?

When working with seniors, we will deal with the issue of procrastination. Those who truly need to move are staying in their homes and are susceptible to crisis management. It is critical to understand what is behind that procrastination. You will hear that, “I have too much stuff”, or “this is just too overwhelming”. Those are surface excuses which are unconsciously used to fend off the actual move that is necessary.
