“It’s been 20 years since I left Good Morning America,” says Joan Lunden, author of the new book, “Why Did I Come Into This Room?: A Candid Conversation About Aging” (https://amzn.to/39rNtxV). “I have an incredibly robust career in health. This is my new reinvention.” Lunden speaks with CoveyClub founder Lesley Jane Seymour about her three keys to happiness: 1. Staying engaged in life; 2. Keeping social connections well beyond the family; 3. Cultivating a sense of purpose—"that can be as simple as planting a garden". Lunden believes that with 76 million Boomers at this pivot point we need to have open discussions about reinventing. To have a “life well-lived” Lunden says we need “to let go of things that don’t matter. Ask yourself: ‘Am I kind? Am I there for people?’ That will let you pivot.”
