Praise for the Encore Career Handbook


“If enough of us find our encores, we’ll become a small army for change: We’ll transform the world and ourselves.”
Jane Pauley, host of AARP’s Your Life Calling on NBC’s Today show

“More and more people – sometimes by necessity, but increasingly by choice – are forgoing traditional retirement and inventing a new stage of life and work. Marci Alboher has written the ultimate guidebook to the financial, educational and even physical adjustments required to create and take full advantage of these opportunities. The Encore Career Handbook is essential reading for the rest of your life.”
Daniel H. Pink, author of Drive and A Whole New Mind

“A treasure trove for anyone hitting midlife and wondering what’s next. Engaging, practical. … This book will inspire you to think big and take action!”
Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project
