About a year and a half ago, we set off on a journey to write a book that would encourage retirees, and those on their way to retirement, to intentionally engage in God's purpose for their lives. We created iRetire4Him – in collaboration with eight other contributing authors and ministries - to help you get off the sidelines and back in the game! As our Gift to you, we are releasing the audio from the Introduction and first chapter on our podcast so you can get a feel for the content inside iRetire4Him.

Because she realized that it had become a symbol of the pressure she felt to be a modern-day “Wonder Woman,” a title that was impossible to live up to and left her feeling like a failure. In this bonus interview, she talks about letting go of perfection in exchange for grace, finding your identity, and generational reconciliation.
