This week, we're thrilled to shine a light on Circle Square member, John Seigal, who has been part of the Circle Square community since its inception. John was Managing Partner at Clintons law firm, one of our Marketplace partners, for over 25 years, and has recently transitioned to a new role, sparking an enlightening conversation about "reframing retirement."  John has no intention of stepping away from working life. Instead, he is pursuing several unique passions alongside it.  Find out what these are! 👉 https://lnkd.in/e8Z9VdJZ #spotlight #members #careertransition #pursuepassions #sharecirclesquare
