Equipping Points:
Retirement is often seen as the golden phase of life, a time to sit back, relax, and enjoy the fruits of your labor. However, did you know that psychologists rank retirement as the 10th most stressful event you can experience? In this episode, Eric discusses why this phase can be so daunting and offers strategies to ease the transition.
We’ll talk about the importance of understanding lifestyle changes, maintaining a routine, and keeping your options open. Learn how to embrace new challenges, prioritize health, and make the most of your retirement years. Whether it’s through travel, spending time with family, or finding new hobbies, we want to help you retire to something, not just from something.
Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
- The stress that can come with no set day to day schedule during retirement.
- Keeping your options open as you plan for retirement.
- Reducing your retirement stress by working with a qualified professional.
