About this episode

Dale Power discusses the importance of personal transition and finding meaning in retirement beyond financial aspects.

What happens after the career that gave you structure, identity, and community is no longer at the center of your life? Dale Power, creator of Reimagine Retirement, joins Richard to talk about the part of retirement planning that rarely gets enough attention: the personal transition. Together, they discuss why travel and leisure are often not enough, how retirees can reconnect with their values, why work communities often do not follow us into retirement, and how service can become a powerful source of purpose. Dale also shares stories of people who found unexpected next chapters through animal rescue, mentoring, entrepreneurship, podcasting, and community involvement. If you are approaching retirement, already retired, or simply thinking about what a meaningful next chapter could look like, this conversation offers a thoughtful place to begin.
