Building a Purposeful Retirement Rhythm (Ep. 13)
Retirement isn’t just about stopping work; it’s about starting something new.
What happens after the celebration, the rest, and the first few months off?
In this episode, Dan Reese, CFP®, shares how creating a rhythm, not a rigid routine, can bring meaning, fulfillment, and balance to your retirement years.
He also explains how tools, planning, and a little structure may help retirees feel more confident about how they spend their time.
Dan discusses:
- The psychological shift from a structured work schedule to open retirement time, and why having no calendar at all can feel overwhelming
- The importance of creating a “retirement rhythm” that includes regular fitness, faith-based, social, and mentally stimulating activities
- How having something on the calendar, whether it’s travel, events, or weekly routines, can add structure and anticipation
- How ChatGPT can be a creative tool to help retirees plan weekly routines
- The need to balance structure with flexibility, leaving room for spontaneity while still maintaining core habits that support well-being
- And more!
