Meet Your Neighbor... Brad Part 2

In Part 2 of our chat with Brad, we dive into life after retirement—and it's anything but slow!

After wrapping up a successful career, Brad found new purpose through writing and has already published his first book. But that’s not all—he’s also discovered a big passion for pickleball and plays every chance he gets right here in Westbrook Village.

From author to athlete, Brad’s story is a great reminder that retirement can be a whole new beginning.

Steve Merila — Host, Meet Your Neighbor
As Realtor Steve, I’ve learned that real estate is about more than houses — it’s about people, stories, and the connections that make a community feel like home. That belief inspired Meet Your Neighbor, a podcast where I sit down with the incredible residents of Westbrook Village to share their journeys, passions, and what brought them here.
Each episode is a genuine, easygoing conversation — like chatting over coffee with a friend — that reminds us how special this community truly is. My goal is simple: to help people connect, feel seen, and celebrate the amazing neighbors who make Westbrook Village one of a kind.
