No. 1 | Rethinking Retirement
Retirement is a significant milestone in one’s life, and it often brings a range of emotions, including feelings of loss. For women, this can be especially challenging as they face societal pressures to retire from their careers while also dealing with the loss of identity that may come with it.
No. 2 | Who are you really?
I wish I had known, standing on the cusp of retirement, the importance of taking the time to reflect on the journey that led me to where I was at the time. A journey filled with accomplishments, challenges, and personal growth. But, also a journey that had shaped my identity. That chapter was coming to a close, and instead of planning for who I would be in my next chapter based on my true, authentic self, I lost myself.
No. 3 | New Beginnings
Let’s talk about new beginnings. Perhaps T. S. Eliot said it best. “What we call the beginning is often the end and to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from.” I read a book a while back that truly put transitions into perspective–the right perspective–for me.
No. 4 | Fixed or Growth Mindset
Your mindset holds the key to your overall success or failure in life. So, when I came across mindset ideas and concepts developed by Carol Dweck, a researcher at Stanford University, I was intrigued. You see, Dweck believes that there are two distinct mindsets and each has different qualities and beliefs. One is a fixed mindset and the other one a growth mindset. Her theory is that people with a fixed mindset have a more difficult time finding success. I tend to agree with her.
No. 5 | Pillars That Matter
In life transitions, there are 4 pillars that matter a great deal but are often overlooked. Retirement isn’t just about ending a career; it’s about beginning a new chapter of life. And while it’s critical to have your finances in order, that traditional approach of planning for a new chapter based entirely on your financial plan is severely lacking.
No. 6 | The Mind’s Rollercoaster
Transitions, whether chosen or imposed, personal or professional, can send us on an emotional rollercoaster unlike anything else. Understanding the neuroscience behind your thoughts, emotions, and actions during these times can be incredibly helpful and empowering. The more aware you are to the relationship between how your brain is wired and the actions and experiences you’ve had as a result, the better equipped you’ll be to keep your emotional rollercoaster on the tracks.
