One of the most meaningful experiences from hosting the Don't Be Caged By Your Age podcast is when a connection made through a conversation turns into a real-life friendship.
I love and adore the amazing Barbara Greenspan Shaiman, M.Ed, and it was pure joy and deliciousness to finally meet in person last week! (No, we didn't plan our colorful tops ahead of time!)
I interviewed Barbara on Episode 38 back in November 2024, and meeting in real life this summer felt like the perfect full-circle moment. We met for lunch in the Berkshires and spent hours talking and deepening our friendship.
Barbara’s work continues to inspire me. She’s the force behind and an upcoming documentary called The Coral Ring Legacy Project — a powerful intergenerational initiative that honors her family’s history and encourages social activism.
Our time together wasn’t just a hug in real life moment — it was a celebration of shared values, meaningful impact, and the kind of connection that keeps me excited to do this work.
If you haven’t heard our conversation yet, tap the link in the bio to tune in - I know you will love meeting Barbara and be inspired by how she is thriving and still impacting the world at 77!
Waving from Boston and wishing you a delicious day, everywhere you GLOW - cheers! 💖
