#20 Boomer Reboot: Phil's Journey from Teacher to YouTube Creator
In this eye-opening conversation, we meet Phil, the creator behind the YouTube channel "What's Up Boomer," who shares his journey of reinvention after reaching retirement age with less-than-ideal financial circumstances.
At 66, Phil works at Home Depot while building a YouTube following that exploded from 400 to over 8,000 subscribers after he candidly shared his "unplanned retirement job" story. With refreshing honesty, he dismantles the stigma around working past retirement age, revealing how these unexpected paths can lead to fulfillment rather than disappointment.
Phil's life story unfolds through powerful moments. His experiences shaped his philosophy about making peace with life's unexpected turns: "Making the best of the way things have turned out when they haven't turned out exactly like I'd planned."
This conversation offers both practical strategies and emotional wisdom for navigating life's final chapters with grace, purpose, and unexpected joy.
