Hi! My name is Brant Huddleston, born 1956, host of this podcast and blog for active, older adults who want to thrive well into and even past their sunset years. Thriving in the second half of life means living better, staying healthy, having more fun, enjoying peak life experiences, and discovering meaning and purpose.
As a boomer, I am chin-deep in all the issues that affect my generation ~ staying healthy so I can travel, caregiving an elder parent, being there for kids and grandkids, deciding future care preferences, and how to pay for it all.
On each show, I interview an expert who shares best practices, tools, tips, and technologies for how to make the rest of our years the best of our years. We even learn about end-of-life and the afterlife…subjects many are afraid to talk about.
Often practical, sometimes thoughtful, always upbeat and lively – it’s all here for free, for your benefit and enjoyment.
Wherever you are in your life journey, I’m here to help you keep on dancing well past sunset!

Three Men and a Barbie Shoe
Three different men, with three different sufferings, and how a tiny Barbie shoe changed their souls.
About once a month I send out a newsletter chock full of stories from my own experiences overcoming fear, leaving my comfort zone, and taking the leap to live in another country. In addition to those stories, you'll find links to videos and special deals, plus you'll get my FREE Starter Kit on HOW TO MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY.
