Boomer Bonding

As we know, boomer women and men are eager to explore next steps in their lives and connect with others going through this time of life. This article talks about a group of New Jersey women, "Boomer Chicks", who have found "female bonding" through activities and discussions with a trained counselor. With full-time work taking up much of their time, they found that they didn't develop the kinds of friendships that their mothers did, many of whom were homemakers. There are a growing number of resources for seeking connections and direction.
