What a joy - today I presented in front of 60 people. Someone pulled me aside beforehand asking if I was the girl who started my business out of my home and described the location of the home. I confirmed it was me many years ago when we lived in the city and she said “you helped my mom“ and then proceeded to tell me how she was planning for herself now. I‘m so often reminded just how much I love this industry and thankful for the opportunity to present for Rodgers & Associates today.

Choosing the Right Retirement Community

If you or someone you know is navigating the eldercare industry and have questions as you navigate the many options, please reach out!

I couldn’t sleep last night thinking about how 20 years ago this month I decided to launch a small business…I was 26. My husband told me years prior that I should start my own business after finishing some projects in the retirement community field and I thought to myself “you’re crazy!” Surely you’re not talking to the shy girl who could barely spit a word out in public. I pulled out a 3 ring binder and started jotting down ideas until I got the courage to pull a few professionals together to run my ideas by who agreed they were worth exploring and acting on.

I studied business in college but I equally had a heart for social work so I taught myself a few things as it pertained to that field and serving others. It’s crazy when I look back on the stories I heard over the years. I was so young and found the courage to sit down with Senators, Representatives and leaders in the industry to advocate on behalf of our aging population. In addition, I had the opportunity to speak in front of hundreds of individuals to educate them on the senior industry and write a column for two local publications. I served close to if not over 500 families with the support of my husband and our families while raising two amazing children. And while I don’t say this to say “look at me!”, I look back on the past 20 years and can’t help but feel anything but proud for the work the Lord entrusted me with. When I ran into an old colleague yesterday and she said "you certainly made a difference in our community", instead of laughing it off as I did for many years, I agreed.

“Having a plan in place is not about pessimism. It's about reducing stress, protecting relationships and making sure that loved ones aren't forced into difficult decisions during already emotional moments.”

Landis Communities among many of the other communities have thriving gardens for their residents to enjoy. Just because you're moving to a a Life Plan community doesn't mean you need to give up the hobbies you love the most! Quite the opposite - you have more time to pursue those interests! What hobbies do you enjoy?

Did you know? Gardening has been part of life at Landis Homes since the early days of the community. Residents tend garden plots where they grow vegetables, flowers, and herbs — some even earning local awards for their produce. These gardens provide beauty, purpose, and a meaningful connection to the land.
