As we stand on the cusp of retirement, a myriad of emotions can wash over us. There's the excitement of newfound freedom, the anticipation of pursuing long-awaited dreams, and the joy of having more time for loved ones.

But along with these positive feelings, there can also be moments of doubt and anxiety. This transition, though filled with promise, requires thoughtful preparation and an open heart to embrace the changes it brings. Leaving a career behind can sometimes lead to a sense of loss, as our jobs often provide a sense of purpose and identity.

Retirement offers the opportunity to redefine this purpose. It's a time to explore new interests, volunteer for causes you care about, or even start a new venture.
Finding activities that bring fulfillment and a sense of contribution can make your retirement years some of the most rewarding of your life.
Embrace this chance to rediscover yourself and what truly makes you happy. Retirement is not just an end; it's the beginning of a new adventure.
It's a time to explore new horizons, whether that means traveling to places you've always dreamed of, taking up new hobbies, or simply enjoying the slower pace of life.
Embrace this opportunity to live life on your own terms, cherish the moments with loved ones, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

The transition to retirement is a journey of discovery, growth, and fulfillment, opening the door to endless possibilities.

In today's video I talk about the retirement lessons I've learned in 2023 and then talk about the retirement goals I have for 2024.

2023 was a fun year for our retirement. We took a big trip for our 40th wedding anniversary and made some extra special memories.

I do have some good goals for 2024 and hope we can achieve them all.


What lessons have you learned for 2023? And what goals do you have for 2024?

Rightfully so, many people are nervous to retire. They have been working for 40ish years and the thought of retiring sends shivers down their spine.
Others are excited and can't wait to pull the plug.

No matter which one you are, don't let anyone tell you the RIGHT way for you to retire.

My best advice is there isn't ONE way to retire. There are many, many ways and what is right for one person may not be right for another. Take the time to research, ask questions, listen to podcasts and video's but make the BEST decision for you and your circumstances.

And don't be scared to say "this isn't what I expected" and try something new. Don't be scared to go back to work! Don't be scared to say I wasn't ready and don't be scared to say this is GREAT!

Today is a repurposed video that I shared a few months ago as I"m on a plane to Airzona!!

I still get asked this question a lot. Or some version of the following - How do I know when it's time to RETIRE?

I'm scared to RETIRE, how will I know the time is right?

Everyone is telling me to RETIRE...will I know when to pull the plug?


This video outlines 5 reasons it's time to RETIRE NOW!!

In today's video I talk about the 3 phases a person will go through during their retirmenet.
They are, the GO-GO phase, the SLOW-GO phase and the NO-GO phase.

Typically when a person first retires, they want to enjoy as much as they can, they travel, do new things, try new activities and enjoy life to the fullest. As their retirement moves on and as they get older they begin to slow down and enter a different stage.

As they continue to age, they move into the NO-GO phase where travel isn't an option any longer. This video whole heartedly encourages you to enjoy life to the fullest while you can. Go, do thing, try new things and have fun.

Make your RETIREMENT REMARKABLE.

Are you ready to turn your life into your dream RETIREMENT? Me too!!

But what I didn't anticipate were these 3 challenges. When I pictured my retirement I saw fun, travel, excitement and enjoyment. And although I do manage to incorporate those into my retirement, I didn't think I'd also experience these three emotions.
