Ron Baecker delivered a compelling and insightful presentation at our synagogue. His talk on reinvention and purpose in later life offered fresh perspectives and sparked thoughtful conversation among our members. It was an engaging and memorable evening that left many reflecting on new possibilities.

There should have been no empty seats! So happy to have been there today! Thank you! Your presentation was marvelous … wonderful uplifting stories of people who found great satisfaction in a second career. Each story was fascinating. You are a natural storyteller — the best of the best! Looking forward to reading the book.

A recent retiree, Reinvention left me informed and inspired. The stories of people who took chances on new experiences — leading to rewarding opportunities, new ventures, and meaningful connections — resonated with me. It’s never too late to redefine what fulfillment might arise in a new chapter. A must-read for anyone who fears that their best adventures are behind them.

Ron Baecker’s lively and insightful book is delightful reading for all looking for new meaning and adventure. Reading this engages you to think about what is important to you for the next stage of your life. And be sure to catch one of his lively presentations, after which he leads an insightful discussion with the attendees!

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful tool to consider taking a new path. We heard the author speak at a public library and we were so impressed with his clarity of thought and the way he engaged with the attendees. He is a keen observer and appreciates learning about other people. The case studies are very interesting. I found myself stopping to reflect on the major concepts which he clearly spells out. I would recommend this book for people of all ages who are considering a new path in life. Or for people who are just interested in learning about others. A worthwhile read!
