“I always say, don’t put me in a box. Because if you do, it better have a door on it, because I’m not staying in there. I’ll break it down.”

Show Notes:

Jean Ketcham is a former small business owner and talk show host. She is also a proud parent, avid skydiver, cancer survivor, and advocate for empowering women. To put it mildly, Jean is up to any challenge. After retiring, Jean discovered that 55+ women were not living up to their true potential. Their social circles were shrinking and their lifestyles were becoming less stimulating and less adventurous. That’s how Aging But Dangerous® was born 12 years ago. Today, Jean is 81 years old, has over 130,000 followers on social media, and she’s convinced that aging can be so exciting and fun.
