Retirement Coaching
With over 35 years of experience and a doctorate in successful retirement transitions, I'm here to help you create a fulfilling post-work life.
Why retirement coaching?
Retirement isn’t just about financial planning – it’s about finding purpose and meaning when your career no longer defines you. My approach helps you:
Uncover your true passions and goals
Navigate the emotional aspects of this major life transition
Create a retirement plan that's both practical and inspiring
