Discovering GetSetUp
Sandra Hendee, a 66-year-old retiree, vividly describes the power of GetSetUp. She learned about GetSetUp through the Presbyterian Senior Services, and the classes have had an important impact on her life. Sandra retired in August 2019, marking a new chapter in her life, but the pandemic's arrival challenged her journey of self-discovery.
Exploring New Classes and Creative Outlets
"I was a little slow to get involved," Sandra admitted, but there was no turning back once she did. "I love the variety. I love that it is international. I've explored Buddhist classes, yoga, cooking with Pam, watercolors, Zentangles, quilling, and art journaling with Deana."
The array of classes presented by GetSetUp soon reignited Sandra's interest in genealogy. However, she wasn't just a casual participant; she became deeply involved in digging into her family history and discussing her heritage. "I became really interested in genealogy," she said. She has since mapped out her family history and learned more about her heritage.
Sandra’s favorite guide is the art guide, Deana.
"Deana is awesome, and I always enjoy her classes. For an hour yesterday, I was able to get out of my head (instead of worrying about my senior dog's health) and just find some zen."
Deana's watercolor and collage classes rank among Sandra's favorites. They’ve allowed her to explore her creative side, and she’s started to dabble in watercolor painting. "I've enjoyed learning watercolor. It's pushing me outside of my comfort zone, and studies show it's good for our brains," she shared.
Gaining Confidence to Connect with Others
Sandra finds social engagement in the classes to be one of the most impactful health and wellness benefits for her.
"I am a hardcore introvert, but community-led groups offer more give and take of conversation. The different levels of social engagement that are available for personal needs and enrichment are so important," she explained.
GetSetUp has connected Sandra with like-minded individuals, and she's made a few friends so far. Cheryl, an active member, has been a source of inspiration for Sandra. "Cheryl is very active and has shared her collages in the classes," Sandra said.
The Impact of Lifelong Learning
GetSetUp classes have helped her explore new areas of interest and connect with others.
"Classes are an opportunity for retired individuals to learn something new or practice existing skills without fear," she said.
She believes it's so important to have a platform where older adults can explore new horizons, engage globally, and gain new opportunities. "I would recommend GetSetUp to others over 60, too, and I have mentioned it to a few friends," she said. Sandra's journey reminds us that, with the right resources and support, we can all continue our lifelong journey of self-discovery and knowledge regardless of age.
Sandra's story is a testament to the power of GetSetUp in fostering lifelong learning, social engagement, and personal growth. Through diverse classes and a supportive community, Sandra has reignited old passions, discovered new interests, and built meaningful connections.
