Career of the Spirit Man sparks a second career in retirement
Will Dreler, originator of the Hubbard Hobby Show, champions the idea of a “career of the spirit” through creative hobbies that enrich communities. He cites examples of a disabled man who knits and works as a welder, and an Iowa grandmother who gains state wide fame after starting painting late in life. Schweitzer echoes the call to give time to others and seek purpose beyond pay.
