He began his own group practices, Concept Healthcare and CoHealth Psychology Services, in 2007 to provide training for those working with older adults. After 12 years, he transferred ownership of his professional corporations to a new company in 2019. He is now semi-retired with a hand in supporting the new owner and keeping a strategic focus on the Living to 100 Club while writing, public speaking, and consulting.
