This episode is part of the special series on Un-Retirement.
ABOUT MY GUEST:
Mary Beth Simon retired from her long corporate career in December 2018. As planned, she started a consulting company in early 2019.
Mary Beth is part of a growing number of Generation X and Boomers who aren’t interested in putting their feet up and playing golf all day post-retirement. She considers herself 100% retired from her corporate career, but that only means she now has all the time to devote to the next chapter in her professional life.
You can find Mary Beth Simon at nichepartnershipconsulting.net and on Linkedin.

- The surprising areas where she felt challenged initially
