Remember Sunday Newspapers?
Growing up and even up until a few years ago, reading the Sunday Newspaper was a ritual.
As a kid, there was the excitement of reading the Sunday funny papers or comics (in color) while my parents read the news. (I know dating myself here).
Later as an adult, there was almost a lazy pleasure in slowly reading the Sunday New York Times over breakfast.
Then there was the usefulness of the Sunday paper when you needed to look for a job⌠because THAT is where all of the Sunday âWant Adsâ were.
Sunday was job search day. If it wasnât in the paper it didnât exist. And you had to wait until the next Sunday to see who was hiring.
While they still exist, papers have been replaced by websites, social media, and phones. I donât know WHERE youâd see comics anymore⌠And the Sunday âwant adsâ are all but gone.
ďż˝NOBODY looks for a job in a paper anymore⌠Itâs been replaced with THOUSANDS upon thousands of POSTINGS updates every few minutes, and THOUSANDS of people apply. And we still think it is the only place people can find a job. WRONG.
If this is you, and youâre not getting any results take this SUNDAY and hit the reset button.

You know what GROUNDHOG DAY IS? Hearing the same BS đđŠfrom employers on repeat or getting ghosted, overlooked and not considered for jobs because of your age. Groundhog day is hearing AGAIN AND AGAIN, that youâre overqualified, wouldnât be a good fit, or we decided to go in a different direction.
Groundhog day sucks⌠and one of the reasons youâre living it on repeat is because youâre playing by the OLD SCHOOL RULES.. And they donât work anymore.
Over the past few months, over 750,000 people have watched a video I made on YouTube about why employers donât want older employees (or people over 50 anymore).
One of the main reasons is the BS ageism and euphemisms they useâphrases like âyouâre overqualified,â âwonât be a good fit,â or, worst of all, you just get ghosted.
đŁď¸Well, on Tuesday, Iâm teaching what to do about it and how YOU can take control of your career and life again.
đŁď¸COMMENT JOBS for info & registration
If youâre in your 40s, 50s, or beyond and youâre a job seeker, career changer, or someone who needs to make a move (because youâve been suddenly told to return to the office and want something new),
đĽI invite you to join me for a 90-minute class called Job Smarts for Older Job Seekers and Career Changer Tuesday (with a replay)
đŁď¸COMMENT JOBS for info & registration
In this class, Iâll show you the new rules and teach you how to deal with them. Iâm bringing my 15 years of experience as one of the top headhunters in America, along with being a five-time bestselling author, and a 50-something guy myself.
This is the no-BS, blunt approach to navigating the job market today:
* How to get noticed
* What to expect and what not to expect
* Strategies for online applications, LinkedIn, and finding real contacts
* * How to reach a human being (and why I hate the word ânetworkingââIâm all about relationship building)
Itâs all happening on Zoom. Check out the info below and Iâll see you on Tuesday!

* The TRUTH on Side Hustles | Extra Income | & Entrepreneurial Endeavors.

Last week was the debut of the Advanced Adulting video podcast on YouTube. I LEARNED A LOT about TRUST in my conversation with my first guest, Sara Schulting Kranz. Specifically, I learned about trusting yourself... again.
Trusting other people once you've been betrayed, hurt, or disappointed is tough.. but sometimes trusting YOURSELF is just as hard. Especially the older we get.
We all have made mistakes and poor choices, hell, even Frank Sinatra said, "Regrets, I've had a few."Â And when that happens and you're faced with making your next move, taking a brave new step, or trying something you've never done before... it's scary, and we can easily doubt ourselves.
This first episode is GOLD. I invite you to watch the FULL episode here on YouTube.
Below, đ I've linked a few important CLIPS and parts of the episode you'll want to check out.

If Dr. Seuss designed a landscape⌠it would be #joshuatree
This is near the house in a protected area of the Mojave Desert along the path where we walk the dogs.
Weâve had coyotes and enormous jack rabbits cross our path on these walks. Gorgeous.
⌠though weâve yet to see a sheep or a desert tortoise. Sheep watch will continue into 2025

ADVANCED ADULTING is about helping "grown-a**" adults navigate the big changes & shifts that hit us all in midlife & beyond. The stuff we weren't prepared for. I'm Bradley Richardson, a 50-something 5x best-selling author. WAY back in the '90s, (When I was in my twenties & had hair) I wrote the very first business book for Generation X. NOW my 50s life, the world, and what's important to me look very different. I'm not alone.
It doesn't matter about your background, location, financial situation, education, or profession, we are all going through personal, professional, health, & life changes by the time we reach our 40s, 50s, & beyond. Finances, career, marriage, relationships, retirement, children, health, aging parents, menopause, happiness, loneliness, friendships, your mindset, aging, reinventing yourself or figuring out what's next, and how to make the best of the rest of your life. YOU aren't alone! Join me on this journey to make the REST of our life the BEST of our life.
