You have an opportunity to redefine your identity in retirement, transitioning away from being defined by a career or past roles. On this podcast we discuss how retirement offers the freedom to focus on passions, values, and relationships rather than what you did for a living. By shedding expectations and obligations, retirees can explore what they truly want to do, leading to a fulfilling and purposeful new chapter in life, and an exciting opportunity to rediscover and embrace who you are.

In our podcast’s inaugural episode, financial advisor Aaron Kirsch and psychology professor Laura Zettel-Watson discuss the inspiration and collaboration behind their book on achieving a fulfilling retirement, emphasizing the importance of planning not just for financial security but for meaningful post-retirement life. Aaron and Laura highlight how their workbook provides practical exercises to help individuals identify core values and craft a personalized vision for their retirement years.
