I started writing LEAP because I wanted to learn what it feels like to do the next years well. People at this age tend to fall into three groups: those who are being forced out of their work and feel like Willy Loman, desperately trying to stay in the...

This is the time of year when many of us take a few moments to slow down and give thanks for what we have. It's something that personally, I wish I did more often. I don't think it should take a date on a calendar to force me to take stock of my life,...

Thanks to word spreading, so too the blogs begin to sprout and this is just one more, right here. Welcome to my newest, thanks to Growingbolder. I was originally just passing and as I became tuned in to my Queen Diva's recent interview, little did...

Hi everyone: I'm a newby here on growing bolder, and Bill suggested I blog my story about my recent marriage...so here goes. About 4 years ago, I was going through a tough divorce (oxymoran, all divorces are tough) and had recently signed up for...

After Rudy Guiliani cheated on his wife and they divorced, she wrote a best-selling book titled My Boyfriend’s Back.  I don’t mean to be a copycat, but I’m kind of, sort of, writing the same book. Mine is titled My Boyfriend’s...

Not being the most motivated person in the world, I developed my own work-out regime. I call it the 5-MININUTE WORK OUT. I do it 5 times a week. (I thought 7 times a week would be overkill.) The beauty of my fitness routine is that you can always find 5...

It hurt. It always did. I just got used to it. After all, isn't that easier than doing something about it? Anyway, who has time in their lives for distractions like medical ailments. But it wouldn't go away. In fact, it kept getting worse. I couldn't bend...

After 80 days and 8,000 miles Glenn Fenster can rest. Growing bolder with every mile, the ride was far from easy. There were times he wondered if he would survive. He had to fight just to continue. The same kind of fight his son faces every single...

On this week's Growing Bolder Radio Show, Marc and Bill interviewed the great-great-granddaughter of etiquette queen Emily Post. Anna Post is pretty hip and has a great new book about wedding etiquette. She's about 18 months too late for my own nuptials...

We have been home for six weeks, so when I sat down at my desk this Saturday morning, I didn’t have a clue what to write but to write I must. We happily go on the road again on Wednesday and the April Blog must be uploaded to mcguinn.com.I could...

No one's happier about America's weight problem than the $50-billion-a-year diet industry. That's why I've decided to write a diet book. I've done a little research and it should be pretty easy. After all, it doesn't have to work. 95% of all diets...

I saw a 109-year-old woman brought back to life. It was stunning. Humbling. I’m still trying to process it all. I’ll tell you about it in a moment. But first, a little background. Ruth1898 is not only the oldest member of our growing bolder...
