Thank you so much for watching
Love listening all these,they build me alot and whatever I'm undergoing on a daily basis,I know there is a day I'll get this precious chance and get to share it..waiting for God's time
Great...I agree with you totally Christine.. Retirement is a blessing.❤
Thanks Lynn for the good work.
Am so wowed by this mind blowing conversation ❤
Lynn God bless you for the wonderful work you are doing 😊
Lynn, 😅😂😀😃🤣😂🤣 that's my age bracket too. We call it the year of immense wisdom and absolute peace. My peace is always between95& 98% any day and every day. There is nothing so fulfilling than reaching 60. It is like it is the paradigm shift in matters fulfilment in my view because that is what I am feeling right now. However, you can only enjoy that 60s mental wellness if you prepared for it in the first place as the lady is clearly putting it. Children here, grandchildren there and self-love here, the joy is endless. There is no time in life I have ever found peace like at this age I am now. Retired, enjoying organic farming and talking to my God every step of the way as He answers each prayer I ask Him for. It can't be any better Lynn. Mmmmmmmh, I wish you guys knew what you are missing.
Lynn, 60s is the beginning of real life story. I resonate with your guest 100% as I affirm her.
I urge all of you to embrace positivity, live a life of purpose, be honest to yourself and subscribe to healthy lifestyle. Avoid processed foods at all costs and be intentional in loving yourself more than loving others. Self-care is so critical in your mental wellness if you wish to reach 60 and experience the fun we are enjoying now. It is doable. "Not all sweet foods are sweet to your 60s". I rest my case.
I think she's only happy at this age because she had a loving and kind husband . Happy marriage gives you a happy long life
" There's No Age You Cannot Learn Anything " DOPE ❤
WOW!
Fascinating and fantabulous interviewer and interviewee. Abraham was to be a blessing and he was 75 when God called him. All things are possible with God. This lady Mrs Ochola is a blessing in so many ways and so is Lynn. Practical lessons as we grow older freely received and are valued. God bless you both:))
Very Inspiring and encouraging 😮
I admire this woman so much. When I grow up I want to be like her.
I LOVE THIS INTERVIEW.
SHE HAS A DREAM HOME.
Me too
Omg!!!! I am the tailooooor!! Never knew my story inspired her so much 🥹🥹 now she is inspiring me! Day made!
God bless you❤
"You do not submit to the extent you are bordering stupidity." Thanks for this 😊
Me n my husband are 33 yrs and we have built a mansion at Katani, retirement house
It's possible to build a house. It's all about setting up priorities right, from campus we have worked for one employer and used the package to start a biz and have been working as a team. Lyn kindly find me I think we can impact people's lives especially youths. Yes its possible it's all about the input, availability of resources and very importantly Attitude.
Woow Lynn please bring her on board atuchanue mapema
Hello Mercy,,my brother did mechanical engineering and has not gotten a job yet. Kindly come through for him
My jirani🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Very encouraging talk am over 60 and I also do alot construction I painted my four bedrooms mansion by myself my husband did the skimming the whole house we work as a team our bond is has been very strong
Wow, wonderful ❤
Years ago when one would be 60yrs old one would seemed very old.This generation of today 60yrs old still young, Christine you are looking good and physical fit❤
Christine, I learnt its okay to build my mansion even at 50s, that I should be prepared psychologically for retirement and I can learn new things at any age.
Thanks mum and you are very beautiful ❤
I am leaving my comment here so that i will come back and testify that "i admired this woman,learnt so much from her and now i am living my life everyday".. I earnestly desire a life of fulfillment ..iam starting it at 24..now ❤
I have listened this interview at my work place and am going repeat it with my parents this evening. My dad just retired 8months and this conversation will be so refreshing to him. My take home is " Each day when you wake up, ask yourself, what new am I going learn today instead of asking yourself what am I going to do today ".
May God bless you Christine and Lynn.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Blessed,humble woman,I love everything about her and neatness in her house.
Was our mum back in State House Girls.... when things went wrong we waited Sabbath to sit next to her and open our hearts....for me you were the mother I wished for. Lots of love Mum Ochola
Not yet 60 but here’s trully a wake up call for me. The part of re- living is a take home for me today.
Thank you Lynn and Christine
This lady have educated me so much and this interview is an awakening call !! Well done Christine ..
Waking up and listening to this is so refreshing and motivating 😊. Life is how we see it and how we plan it.
Also, the fact that she has all her teeth in her mouth, adds to the good look in her face. Stay beautiful sister!
Adventists have such a nice lifestyle..they know the secret ❤
Great interview. You are only as old as you feel, in body and mind. We were brought up to believe that you work, retire and head back to ushago. That is sooo old. Many people I know that have retired are like this wonderful lady. They are learning new things. And in this day and age, technology is the great equalizer. I am a 60 year old man and can do things that many 20 year olds cannot. For example, I can do 50 push ups without breaking a sweat. I can run faster than many 20year olds because they spend most of their time on the couch going through their phones and they eat junk food. In short, retirement should be the beginning of a new and even better life than you had before. If you plan well, you build or buy a house, fully paid for by 60 yrs old. You have retirement savings that you can live off comfortably. Anything you do after sixty should be the icing on the cake. You can now enjoy life to the fullest. Think about it, would you rather enjoy life when you are young and live miserably when you are older or vice versa? What I have learnt in my life is that what you do in your 20's and 30's will determine how you live in your 50's and 60's. Life is not a dress rehearsal. Jipange! The earlier you start the better.
Greetings from Lagos, Nigeria. An insightful conversation. I learnt that age is not a barrier to create an exciting lifestyle.
I am 60 and will be retiring in two years’s time. This show has opened my eyes and inspired me. I will definitely subscribe to her CZcams channel 👏🏾
Lynn thank you for bringing us another inspiring talk. ❤
Christine you are not old at all. 62 years young.. You are still young and vibrant.. swimming, jumping on trampoline, writing books❤❤. Am looking forward to my retirement in a few years. I'll be just like you. You're an inspiration. God bless you in your years of fruitful retirement. Age is nothing but a number😊.
Thank you Lynn for featuring this amazing lady. I follow her and each time she’s such an inspiration. I admire her energy and her natural beauty ❤
Our girl Lynn is here again 😊we appreciate your hardwork and your team,I am ready to learn ❤
Christine I have learnt so much from you. I am also retired and for sure life begins at 60. I am doing short courses on CZcams at my own pace and on Alison. I am happy with myself. I am more available in church, family and for myself from the very busy schedules I had while working.
Mama,just need to be confident,this is beautiful I’m 47 and have learned a lot from you….To keep myself busy now that my kids are grown up and I have all the time.I didn’t know can still do alot.
I praise God that is still have time to do alot I don’t have to wait till 60….
She is sooo beautifuull❤
And her presence is top notch🩵♥️❤️🤍
Age is just a number. Here in Diaspora 60 is relatively young. Kind regards to Christine for showing us learning never stops..
Hi, tuko wengi huko😅, doing different tasks of interest. God bless you.
Godliness with Contentment is GREAT GAIN!! The Peace of God radiates all over her. I’m so blessed to stumble into this interview. God richly bless you ❤️🤗
I am encouraged. Learning music and playing the keyboard in my retirement. I am loving it.
@sixty+life you have alot to offer. Christine I have learnt that you can start life at whatever age and have fun regardless of age.
Phenomenal woman! Very inspiring conversation, too. Age 60 can't find her anywhere. Thanks Lynn for bringing experiences that resonate with so many of us out here. Keep going, LNN.
Christine ❤you are an inspiration. Am blessed to have listened to your conversation with the amazing Lynn Ngugi. I just turned 60, still actively employed but with lots of concern about retirement
Fearing God is the only key to reach such place ,Lynn good job I desire to have a good family and good in laws like them ,am very much humbled for this conversation.May God remember me in great way like this .
Beautiful interview and a good eye opener for the 60+ get up and go. Thank you so much Jael's aunt.
Thank you Lynn for bringing Christine @sixty+life 🎉🎉🎉 enjoying life is a choice one makes.
Christine, I learnt that:
In the twilight of our years, a journey unfolds,
Life after sixty, a story to be told.
Years of toil and labor, we've weathered the storm,
Now, a canvas of joy, in the golden-warm.
Retiring from the grind, a sweet release,
To savor the moments, to find inner peace.
The wisdom of ages, like a fine wine,
Life after sixty, a chapter divine.
No longer confined by the daily grind,
Freedom whispers softly, a gentle wind.
The weight of responsibilities, now laid to rest,
A second chance at living, our very best.
Rediscovering passions, once put aside,
Dancing with dreams, on this joyous ride.
Hobbies once forgotten, now take the stage,
Life's second act, scripted on a wiser page.
Gardens of leisure, where time gently sways,
Blossoms of friendships, in the sunset's blaze.
Traveling the world, with a heart so light,
Life after sixty, an exquisite flight.
Time may have etched lines on our face,
But joy has sculpted a masterpiece in its grace.
Silver strands glisten, like threads of the moon,
In the symphony of life, we find our tune.
Grandchildren's laughter, like melodies sweet,
Generations entwined, in a dance complete.
Legacy woven, in the fabric of time,
Life after sixty, a reason to rhyme.
Optimized by experience, refined by years,
A vintage spirit, conquering fears.
Each day a canvas, painted in hues,
Life after sixty, a gift we choose.
So, let's embrace the journey, with hearts so light,
Life's greatest adventure, in the fading light.
After the years of toil, the sun still shines,
Life after sixty, where joy intertwines.
This so beautiful❤
Very encouraging story
Wow…who wrote this please? Poetically expressed.
Excellent poem. Thanks for sharing.

Surely, I would also love to hear Lynn's mum's story. How she brought up such a confident and an amazing soul. You are such a vibe Lynn, I love your personality and everything that you bring to us. I didn't remain the same since I came across your utube channel. My prayers are always with you!

Christine - I will take up swimming lessons which I gave up some 20 years ago because of you! Thanks for sharing.
Christine life begins at 60, an eye opener I have learnt so much from her
Wau, Christine you are an amazing woman, you have really inspired me.lam now retired and you have opened my eyes.
You know! Am going back to learn how to swim. You honestly have just inspired me. Well into my 50s and I thought it was too late. Thank you 👏
Oh thank you for the motivation madame. I’m definitely going back to my exercises. I’m looking forward to my “earlyretirement “ in 2 yrs. Retirement has never looked better.
Christine you are a blessing. This conversation is uplifting.
Wow this is amazing story....I love how she keeps her life fit and refusing to age ...keen it up Mum 💕💜👏🎊👏👏👏
Christine, you reminded me of the power of choosing a positive mentality and its life benefits. Thank you, though I knew that their could be others with the same mentality, it has been a pleasure to listen to your experience. I also learned swimming and cycling at a late age which has improved my physical health immensely. I was also advised to start weight liftning which I do sometimes. I am turning 60 in a couple of months and I am looking forward to it.
This year is my beginning, I have planned a lot of activities including traveling to many parts of the world. Two plane tickets are already booked and I am researching the others. I will also do a couple of university courses just for fun.
Another masterpiece ❤❤❤Thank you Lynn for bringing this phenomenal woman..I feel so encouraged.
Wow, such an awesome story. Congrats Christine and thanks Lynn for bringing this beautiful story. So motivating.

Hi Lynn, I came across your show "Finding Joy in my 60's..." and really was just encouraged by your guest. I too am in my 60's and decided to start a CHRYTV TV Channel primarily for ROKU and android tv. I am in Toronto, Canada. I am on Facebook and CZcams also. Surprisingly, (confession) ... I probably came across your setup and thought I could start a podcast similar to yours --. As I progress with the channel I probably may have similar topics to yours. Keep doing the good job you are doing. I only wished I had started when I was much younger. God bless you.
I love her humour and she is full of energy...i will watch her channel
Inspiring! Such a humble & gracious lady....wow!
This is such an amazing interview Lynn! Christine has spoken so much to me..."when you retire you don't have to wake up wondering what to do...wake up asking what am I going to learn today?Thank you Lyn!
Beautiful, inspirational soul
I wish people will see this interview as a wake up call
Live to the fullest at every stage til the end 😊
Thanks Christine for sharing your story! I’ve learned so much from you, don’t just say what I’m going to do today, rather what I’m going to learn today that’s powerful, your life is a blessing.
Christine. You are adorable. You have changed my attitude. You have really inspired me. I have already shared this story to my friends. I want to enjoy my retirement because you have made me believe that you can start a new life at any age.

This is very impressing. With exercising you feel light and energetic
Thank you Christine, I have learned that I have to prepare myself emotionally and psychologically before I go on retirement.
This is too lovely!!, i got to follow Christine through Jael's channel. She is an inspiration to retirees and to much younger people who are looking forward to retirement!
Christine! One of my favorite youtubers and woman I look up to. Nice to see her Beautiful family. My 73 year old mom swims too.
