Sweet and Holy Friends, join Anne Goldberg as she interviews Candy Cohn, in our ‘Getting to Know TAO’ series of interviews where we learn more about our TAO friends and members.
Candy Cohn is a Certified Senior Advisor® and owner of Oasis Senior Advisors South Florida. Originally from Philadelphia, Candy has lived in Florida since 1985. After living in Martin County for years, she moved to Delray Beach in 2008 and then to Boca Raton in 2017.
Her background in healthcare marketing includes community relations at Martin Memorial Hospital in Stuart, FL; writing for “Psychotherapy Finances” newsletter; Marketing Director for Flexsite Diagnostics; and community relations at the Visiting Nurse Association of Florida. After helping her own parents move to a senior living community in 2011, Candy realized the complexity and emotional challenges involved in this transition and has since dedicated herself to serving others who needed to make these life changes.
Candy is very active in the community, including being a member of the Rotary Club of Downtown Boca Raton, the Palm Beach County Partnership for Aging (PFA), the Skilled Nursing & Assisted Living Alliance (SNALA) and participating regularly in the Palm Beach County Guardianship Association and Florida Assisted Living Association (FALA). Candy also serves as past president of Broward County Elder Services Resource Network (ESRN) and has served for several years on the planning committee for the Boca Raton Walk to End Alzheimer’s.
Anne Goldberg has been doing personal interviews for more than 15 years as part of TAO’s People of Distinction and her own legacy video business. Most of her work is with boomers and seniors, helping them to know they are old enough to have a past and young enough to have a future – at any age – through her original lecture series, The Art of Living Longer. Currently, she and her partner David Hall, produce The Savvy Seniors Show on YouTube, free content to ‘edu-tain’ folks while under quarantine. A two-term past-president of TAO, Anne chaired the Oneg committee for five years, chaired many events, has been a member of the High Holy Day choir for 14 years and, in the before times, she ran the Power Point virtual Siddur at virtually all of TAO’s Shabbat services since 2014. Anne is delighted to be a part of Getting to Know TAO.
