Our Kickass Boomer of the Day is Dr. Yvonne Kaye, an thanatologist or an expert in the study of death. She is also an international speaker, author, veteran radio talk show host, spiritual coach, and interfaith minister. Yvonne joins us in this episode to talk about her various works, most especially in the bereavement space. We will know how her experience as a World War II survivor shaped her approach to bereavement, post-trauma, and crises. 

Still, 87 years young, Yvonne has been reminding the people around her to not act their age. After we reach the boomer age, or even before then, there is no limit to what we can and cannot do! The only rule we should follow is to have fun because we are not aging after all. We’re only living. 

Join me in this episode and learn why Yvonne is a Kickass Boomer!
