At 68 years young, Jill Phillips has a lot of stories and several everyday lessons worth sharing. From growing up in 1960’s London, to writing a book, to getting healthy and completing a 5K in her mid-sixties, Jill’s message is clear: Do the things you want to do.

This energetic and vibrant lady reminds us that divorce isn’t a death sentence and that spending time with loved ones near the ends of their lives can be incredibly fulfilling and valuable.

When Jill decided to write her book, it meant learning about and telling her family stories. What surprised Jill during this process was how much she learned about herself.

If you have a passion project, a bucket list, or just want to make a few changes in your life, Jill’s interview may be the jolt you need to get up off the couch and do the things you want to do.
