Take On Life After 50 Podcast: Recent Episodes
Diane Ziomek
Life after 50. What does it mean? My podcast focuses on embracing life after 50; taking the time to enjoy all life has to offer. Plus, funding the enjoyment doesn't hurt either so there'll be episodes where I'll talk about side hustles that are easy to start and do. However, you don't have to be over 50 to listen in. There's information and advice I wish I had when I was in my 20's, which I'll be sharing as well. Join me each week for my take on life after 50. Episode 1 airs November 30, 2021.
In this episode I provide 12 services you can do as a side hustle. From bookkeeping to home organization, there's something anyone can do.

In this episode I'll take you into the basics of designing and selling greeting cards on Etsy or your own website. Listen through to find out another way to monetize your creativity.
Resources mentioned:
TOLA50Printables - Check out the sympathy cards that were designed in Affinity Publisher.
Creative Memories - I'm not affiliated with CM in any way, but I do love their products. I still have paper and stickers I bought over 20 years ago, and now they have a small selection of cardmaking kits. Plus I use the cutters, markers, and even adhesives I bought when I was getting started on my scrapbooking journey. Their products last forever.
See the accompanying blog post for additional information; an afterthought if you will.
