Welcome to Busy Boomers - we're designers - we help you design the sort
of creative, productive and satisfying 'third
age' that YOU
want to live.
Longevity is a new world. Today’s baby boomers can expect to live longer than previous generations – perhaps 20 or 30 bonus years. And many of them will be years of good health and active minds.
As the same time, early retirement is no longer an option for many people; income-wise as well and interest-wise. In fact, there are moves afoot to banish the word ‘retirement’ itself, because of its implications of withdrawing from life!
So, we’re left with lots of questions, lots of challenges and lots of choices – like no other generation that has ever lived!
NOW is the time to start exploring your options. Why not join us
and others at the same life stage to do just that?
Join us for
the next BusyBoomer workshop - a sprint
through one-day workshop
Date: Friday, 24th June
(10 am to 4.30 pm)
Venue: Heide Room,
Function Centre @ Manningham Council Offices, Doncaster Road, Doncaster
This workshop will enable participants to start exploring options
for making the most of their creative third age years - with a view to finding
and/or generating fulfilling paid and unpaid work.
For full details,
contact us and we will email you details of
workshop content, investment, booking process and preparatory work.
Find yourself confused about
what to do next in your life?
Why not book in for a one-on-one session and spend time
looking at your options with Grace Johnston, author of Aligning Your Work and

Who are Busy Boomers?
Busy Boomers Pty Ltd is a business dedicated to working with people living
through those precious years that we call the ‘third age*’ and
making the most of them.
The one-size-fits-all retirement planning manual is no longer adequate – because these bonus years for most people won’t be about the rocking chair. They’ll be about rocking the boat and changing the stereotypes!
These years for busy boomers won’t be about stretching resources and battening down. They’ll be about discovery, surprise and creating new paths. They’ll be about grasping opportunities and contributing to society and the community in new and creative ways.
They’ll be about …..? Well, that really depends on you. After all, it’s your life, your time, and it’s about who you really are. And about your work, play, relationships and what has meaning for you.
And that’s what the BusyBoomers' program is all about. Not giving you the answers, but
assisting you with information and processes through which you can explore your third age options and set some goals for the next phase of your journey.
*your third age is the name for all those years of active living that used to be thought of as ‘retirement’ – the years after you finish your traditional career (though that doesn’t mean you may not be working in the third age!). The third age years are not to be confused with the ‘fourth age’ when growing frailty may set in.
