1 118 Curious about...Retirement Questions to Ask Yourself w/Judy Freedman, Lifestyle Blogger & Frmr. The Campbell Company Colleague 22:58
🏓This week I'm Curious About... Retirement — it’s a word that often comes with mixed emotions. For many, it’s long-awaited freedom. For others, it’s an uncertain transition. But what if we started thinking about retirement not as a finish line, but as a journey of reinvention? In the latest episode ( #118 ) of My Curious Colleague 🔍 #CPGCX Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Judy Freedman , a former colleague at The Campbell's Company , lifestyle blogger, and top blogger for women over 50. Judy retired early at 55, and over the past 12 years, she’s embraced an evolving retirement — one filled with blogging, yoga, travel, pickleball, and even becoming a grandmother! 🎉 A few key takeaways from our conversation: ✅ Retirement is a "rhythm", not a rigid plan —it evolves over time. ✅ Ask yourself: "What brings me joy?" —big or small, make space for it. ✅ You don’t have to have a schedule right away —embrace the freedom! ✅ Finances matter, but so does purpose —some work by necessity, others by choice. ✅ Social connections are key —new hobbies and activities bring new friendships. Judy’s perspective reminded me that retirement isn't about stopping, but about shifting.

👨🏼🎓 This week, I had an insightful conversation with Bill Hartford, VP of Business Development at The Connection Company, on how text and chat technologies are supporting student enrollment in higher education.

Fast response time is critical! 🔑 Texting Takes It Further: • Texting allows schools to re-engage prospective students, with up to 15% conversion after 30 days – creating valuable opportunities for long-term connections. 🔑 Empathy & Expertise Over Chatbots: • Live agents, with real-time access to a school’s knowledge base, offer a higher level of personalized, empathetic service compared to AI chatbots, which ultimately drives more enrollments. 🔑 Flexibility for Both Students and Agents: • The Connection Company supports 24/7 engagement with flexible scheduling for their agents, which is key to their success in serving a diverse, remote workforce.
