Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/21/2020 -- In this episode Host Maria Lucassen will talk with Dr. Sara Zeff Geber about living in retirement without having a younger generation to take care of you.

Being single can lead to a wonderful lifestyle, yet it often can cause anxiety that you might need help at some time in the future. Listen live here: https://www.voiceamerica.com/show/3961

Dr. Sara Zeff Geber has researched this topic and written an excellent book full of tips on how to improve your lifestyle and reduce the impact of an unplanned major change in health as a "solo ager". Listeners will become aware and get solid recommendations on how to prepare for this kind of event. Most of all, taking actions will help you to be at ease about the future and enjoy your retirement more.
