Retirement Coaching

In the vast majority of western countries, there is an ever-expanding third age population who are living longer and wanting more from their lives than just to sit at home waiting for their children to call and ask to borrow some money.

Retirement issues

• Retirement can be a stressful time as the newly retired question their place in society.
• Retirement is often coupled with a dramatic decrease in income.
• Some people welcome their retirement.
• Others are confused by their new lack of status within society or the workforce.
• Many are keen to remain both physically and mentally active after they stop working.

Some would like to continue working in a voluntary capacity, or to develop new skills to work from home or engage in studies that they did not have time for during their ‘working’ career.

How can retirement coaching help?

Retirement coaches specialize in helping people to retire on the terms that they want – rather than the terms dictated to them by their workplace, their families or even their friends and partners.

Retirement coaching can help you to articulate your real expectations for the next stage of your life, and provide a framework and motivation for expanding rather than decreasing your opportunities. Perhaps you will find a part-time career, retrain, return to college or university, set up your own small business, expand a hobby, or take up a new sport!

By focusing on your needs and continuing expectations you can turn dread about your ensuing retirement into excitement about this new phase in your life.
