IT'S JUST A HICCUP! RECLAIMING YOUR IDENTITY. What happens after retirement? – Free Online Presentation

With authors, of "It's Just a Hiccup!" - TRISH EXTON-PARDER and CORRINE WILKINSON


Wednesday, February 19th | 1:30 pm – 2:30 pm

Like a chameleon, you took on the culture and face of your work and immersed yourself completely.  But what happens when that work is no longer a part of your life? Friends and colleagues Trish Exton-Parder and Corinne Wilkinson will share how that feels with personal experiences and stories, mixed with humour and some soft advice on how to navigate the tricky road of identity loss. The presentation will also include questions prompted by Corinne and Trish for the audience to consider and assist them in getting on with the next chapter. 


Meet your speakers:
