But what if some of the things we’ve been told about retirement simply aren’t true? In this video, I’m sharing 13 of the biggest retirement lies and myths that many retirees discover after they leave work behind. From “you’ll never feel stress again” to “you’ll sleep in every day” and “you’ll finally feel free,” retirement often looks very different than people imagine. Some surprises are wonderful. Others can leave people feeling confused, lonely, restless, or wondering why retirement doesn’t feel the way they expected. If you are retired, close to retirement, or dreaming about retirement someday, this video may help you prepare for the emotional, mental, and lifestyle changes nobody really talks about. Topics include: • Retirement boredom • Friendship changes • Sleeping and energy • Stress after retirement • Freedom vs responsibility • Travel expectations • Feeling younger in retirement • And more… Retirement is not the end of life. For many people, it’s the beginning of learning who they are without the job title. If you enjoy honest conversations about retirement lifestyle, purpose, travel, happiness, and aging well, I’d love to have you subscribe.
