  Ep. 51 Doggy Bed and Breakfast: A Home Away From Home for Dogs

  Sep 23, 202628 min

  Episode Summary What if your home could become a cozy getaway for dogs? In this episode of Your Life Over 50 , host Jean sits down with Julie Mattox, owner of Julie's Doggy Bed and Breakfast in Sacramento. For 20 years, Julie has provided short term care, when families takes a vacation or has to be away from home for a few days, right in her own home. There are no kennels and no cages, just comfy couches, a big backyard, and lots of love. Julie shares how a bad experience finding care for her own pets led her to start the business. She also talks about how she helps nervous dogs feel safe, why she took a professional pet sitting course, and how she's grown her business without spending a dime on ads. She even opens up about the hardest part of the job: saying goodbye to the pets she's come to love. Julie also works full-time as a civil engineer, so she knows a thing or two about planning for retirement. She leaves listeners with heartfelt advice about building community before and after you retire, so you never have to feel alone. Whether you're a dog lover, thinking about a side business, or just wondering what your next chapter might look like, this warm and honest conversation is for you.

  Ep. 49 - Wendy Elover Shares How to Clear the Noise to Hear Yourself Again

  Mar 22, 202653 minS1

  Show Notes Summary In this episode of Your Life Over 50 , Jean sits down with Joy and Clarity Strategist, TEDx speaker, and bestselling author Wendy Elover to explore what it really means to slow down, clear mental clutter, and create space for more peace and joy. Wendy shares how many of us—especially those who have spent years caregiving, managing responsibilities, and putting others first—find ourselves overwhelmed with “too many tabs open” in our minds. Through relatable stories and practical insights, she explains how clarity and joy are deeply connected: when we gain clarity about what truly matters, we naturally create room for more ease, peace, and fulfillment. Together, Jean and Wendy discuss: Why slowing down can feel scary—but necessary How mental clutter keeps us stuck in “emergency mode” The power of taking small, imperfect steps forward Letting go of “shoulds” and redefining what matters in this season of life The concept of “glimmers”—tiny moments of joy we often overlook Why accepting help is not weakness, but a gift to others Simple ways to begin, even when you don’t know where to start Wendy also introduces practical tools like her “worry and gratitude” method and encourages listeners to begin with just a few quiet moments to sort through what truly matters. This conversation is a gentle reminder that you can carry responsibility without carrying chaos—and that it’s never too late to create a life that feels lighter, calmer, and more joyful.

  Ep. 48 - Start With What’s in Your Pocket

  Mar 16, 202641 minS1

  Podcast Summary In this episode of Your Life Over 50, Jean sits down with Tharon Green, a visual designer for the technology publication CNET, about how he built a career in the tech world and why smartphones have become powerful creative tools. Tharon shares how his passion for technology began with video games and art school, where he studied 3D modeling and digital design. After graduation, he joined a small startup reviewing technology products and eventually found himself contributing to tech reviews, particularly audio devices like Bluetooth speakers and earbuds. That experience gave him a behind-the-scenes look at how tech companies test and review products. Today, Tharon works remotely as a visual designer for CNET, creating motion graphics, thumbnails, and visual content for their website and YouTube channel. Being part of the tech industry has continued to fuel his interest in new gadgets, especially smartphones and cameras. During the conversation, Tharon explains how smartphone cameras, especially those in newer iPhones, have become powerful tools for photography and video. While professional photographers may still benefit from dedicated digital cameras for specialized work like weddings or sports photography, hobbyists and beginners can achieve impressive results using the camera that’s already in their pocket. Tharon encourages listeners who want to start creating content, whether for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, or photography, to start with what they already have. Most modern smartphones, including iPhones and Android devices from the past few years, are capable of capturing high-quality photos and videos. For anyone feeling intimidated by technology, Tharon’s message is simple: you don’t need expensive equipment to get started. Your smartphone is already a powerful creative tool. Jean and Tharon close the conversation with plans for a future episode focused entirely on iPhone photography and tips for beginners.
