Married for more than forty years, veteran TV personalities and Significant Living television show hosts Jerry and Shirley Rose are familiar with the various stages of life and marriage. Jerry has served as president and CEO of the Total Living Network near Chicago for more than thirty years, interviewing thousands of guests and bringing a minister's experience and broadcaster's expertise to every program. Shirley's experience proves that the second half of life can differ drastically from the first. She spent early adulthood at home, raising three children, before joining the corporate world as an executive. After she turned fifty, Shirley "reinvented" her life: she wrote her first of five books and created and produced the Emmy award-winning TLN program Aspiring Women, which she also cohosts. The parents of three and the grandparents of twelve, the Roses are passionate about encouraging baby boomers to pursue lives of significance.
