with my guest, Ryan Frederick.

Ryan is an advisory council member of the Stanford Center For Longevity, the CEO and Founder of HERE and the author of Right Place, Right Time.

He has pioneered a discipline called Place Planning, a research backed framework that people evaluate how their home and community supports their health, relationships, happiness and financial well being.

I hope you will join us a week from tomorrow as The 3rd Phase begins its new bi-weekly format, with the next show scheduled for Tuesday, June 23rd.

Thank you!

It was so nice of Thompson Traders to share one of my Signature Selections from High Point Market with their own community here on Facebook.

Thank you, Alejandra Ochoa de Thompson!

Thank you again to Lori Carpenter Designs for naming our Quintana Vanity as one of your 3rd Phase “Signature Selections” at High Point Spring Market.

This luxurious mixed-metal vanity is ideal for aging adults thanks to rounded corners and a high deck height. It can also be customized to allow for wheelchair users to roll under the vanity top.

Read WHY I selected these products as my *Signature Selections* at the recent High Point Market for all of my clients who are 60+ years of age as well as for the listeners of my 3rd Phase podcast and members of my 3rd Phase Facebook Group community:

We need more quality products like these that are stylish for our lives now, AND that include these extra functionality and/or comfort features that will make a big difference to us in our late 80's and 90's, when we really need them most.

I don't know about you, but I don't want to have to buy now..and buy again.. and these products mean I won't have to.

If any of you that are my current friends or clients see something here you would like me to purchase for you or get you more information on, please leave a comment.

At market, Carpenter presented awards to 16 products for features that addressed aging consumers, including limited mobility, wayfinding lighting and cushion comfort.
