About this listen

Many professionals find that retiring isn’t just about having enough money—it’s about feeling ready to leave behind the structure, identity, and comfort of a career.

In this Root Financial podcast episode, James and Ari explore the emotional hurdles of retiring from a high-paying, high-stress job, even when financially prepared. They highlight the value of aligning retirement with your future self’s goals and priorities, not just your current fears.
