Retirement planning is a hot topic, but let’s get real for a sec: it’s not just about the cash. I mean, come on! We dive into some heavy stuff today, like mortality and identity. Yeah, I said it. It’s kind of a buzzkill, but truth be told, that’s what keeps folks up at night. You’re not losing sleep over compound interest; you’re stressing over what life looks like when the daily grind ends. And honestly, that’s a tough pill to swallow. We talk about how our jobs shape who we are, and how stepping away from them can feel like losing a part of yourself. But don’t sweat it! There’s a way to approach this with a little grace. We’ll pull some wisdom from Scripture to help us navigate these feelings and give you some action steps that aren't all about spreadsheets and savings accounts. So, get comfy and let’s figure out how to embrace this next chapter of life with a bit more confidence and clarity, shall we?

  • Retirement planning isn't just about the dollars and cents; it's about who you are.
  • Facing mortality can be tough, but it's essential for meaningful retirement planning.
  • Our jobs shape our identities; it's crucial to redefine ourselves beyond our careers.
