About this listen
It sounds dramatic—but surprisingly, some studies suggest our health can decline faster after retirement, especially when we lose purpose, routine, social connection, and a sense of identity.
In today’s video, we dive into the research, the myths, and what really impacts life expectancy after retiring.
In this video, I cover:
✔ Why some retirees decline after leaving work
✔ The link between purpose, loneliness, and health
✔ Why early retirement isn't the problem—losing meaning is
✔ How to retire and live longer, happier, and healthier
✔ Practical ways to stay mentally and physically engaged
This isn’t about fear—it’s about awareness so we can design a purpose-filled, vibrant retirement. Because life doesn’t end when work does—in many ways, it finally begins.
