Tim Vosse is an expert in the senior living space.  In this episode, he talks about the presence of his family, a desire to make an impact, listening more than talking, understanding the end game, using your voice, and we have a deeper dive into elder care.Tim is a St. Louis metro native, a CPA, with a B.S. in Accounting from Illinois State University and an MBA from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville.  He worked in public accounting before moving into CFO roles for senior care facilities.  Throughout Tim's 20+ years at Bethesda and Friendship Village, his passion for Seniors grew stronger.  He recognized senior communities are wonderful places for Seniors to move into.  But one thing was concerning:  the number of Seniors who said “my kids made me move here” or “I would rather still live in my home”.  It was clear that there is no current solution that helps Seniors keep their voice, live at home longer, with purpose and an enhanced quality of life.  Tim also saw family relationships break down, as roles change over time when families become caregivers.  So, Tim created My Circle with a vision to help Seniors live in their home forever and enhance their quality of life as well as their families.  Evaluating the current situation and needs, My Circle problem solves and proactively plans for a future the family desires.  To reach Tim and My Circle:314-780-0045 www.mycircle365.com  info@mycircle365.comTo learn more, visit:linkedin.com/in/jason-Shupp-18b4619bListen to more episodes on Mission Matters:https://missionmatters.com/author/Jason-Shupp/
