Episode 118: Learn how to build wealth later in life, host engaging virtual meetings, and create a hybrid business model that works—from someone who did it all after 50.
In this episode of Engaging Virtual Meetings, I sit down with Christine McCarron, real estate investor, broker, author, and founder of the Beehive Coworking Community. Christine shares how she went from rock bottom to seven figures—starting at age 50—and how virtual meetings played a key role in her coaching, networking, and business growth.
We talk about shifting mindset, learning from mistakes, and creating financial independence at any age. Christine also opens up about the power of engagement in virtual spaces—from camera-on culture to creative breakout rooms—and how she uses hybrid tools like the Meeting Owl to bridge in-person and remote teams at her coworking space.
