"What's Next? Conversations with Boomers"
What’s Next? Conversations with Boomers is a candid, cross-generational dialogue exploring life after the milestones—career shifts, retirement, relationships, family, reinvention, and everything in between. Hosted by Barb Desmarais, a retired family & parenting coach and public speaker, each episode dives into honest stories and lived wisdom from Boomers navigating their “what’s next?” moments, offering insights that resonate across generations. Thoughtful, curious, and sometimes funny, the show bridges perspectives and sparks conversations about how we age, adapt, and continue to dream.

The Golden Bachelor
Happy New Year! 2024 is here, and Barb is ringing in the new year with her podcast producer, Mela, to chat about "The Golden Bachelor." After several discussions about the dating life of 60-somethings, we thought it would be apropos to do a deep dive into the new iteration of The Bachelor franchise. It is also a great opportunity to do a cross-over episode for Barb's & Mela's podcast and have the two worlds collide in this fun and entertaining episode. We talk about a random flash mob, the outrageous helicopter date, and why the Golden Bachelor isn't quite as golden as the show made him out to be.
