Your Guide to Better Living will provide a unique blend of entertaining stories and answers to an aging population’s questions about housing, health, finances and other lifestyle issues such as mobility, travel, technology and community events.

“Our goal is to become the leading source of information for families who are trying to make important quality-of-life decisions,” said Steve Schmidt, publisher, Your Guide to Better Living.
Your Guide to Better Living will focus on Sarasota, Manatee and Charlotte Counties and will be delivered directly to consumers in their homes through the Sarasota Herald-Tribune. Your Guide to Better Living will also be available at Publix supermarkets, Walgreens and CVS drug stores, medical clinics, hospitals, doctor’s offices, social service agencies and assisted living centers.
