Sage Advice: Fantasy Packages, the Faces of Aging & Employment is Alana Hoffman-McIalwain's guide for men and women transitioning beyond those 55+ years, when personal and professional lives feel increasingly tenuous and uncertain. How do we create a place in our community and in the workplace? Where do we find the courage and tenacity to move forward and feel productive and satisfied? The author, an expert in human resources, introduces us to people who have faced loss and pain and have moved forward. Their stories act as the kindling that will set our imaginations on fire, and it is through their accompishments that we are reminded of all the extraordinary possibilities before us, in all phases and chapters of our lives. The transition through old age need not be daunting. Instead, like the people we meet in this book, the journey can be rewarding and filled with unexpected joy.
