Read MoreInterview with the Bloomer Boomer Show. Bloomer Boomer is about life after 50 where millions can join our community to discover how to thrive and embrace life. Metaphorically, “Embrace Life, Empower Dreams and Embrace Age.” It applies to any age but typically after 50, or when we see time ticking away. Friends and family can be gone forever, careers end, we’re older, health changes and lives change. But “Embrace Life, Empower Dreams, Embrace Age” is a mission of Bloomer Boomer that is not about conceding the end, but the beginning of new opportunities. Everyone can use the tools and knowhow to achieve their dreams and vision of life. That’s what we do at Bloomer Boomer and we share everything with our community. www.BloomerBoomer.com #fiftyafter50
