Retirement Coaching
That’s not to say you thought leaving the workforce would be easy. Retirement is a huge life change and can lead to a lot of uncertainty. You never wanted a boring life. In fact, you want the opposite. You know there will be days that are more difficult than others. However, you’ve put in your time. You are ready to move forward, but you are not clear about where you want to go. What you didn’t expect was how stressful retirement would be. You never predicted how many financial constraints you’d have to deal with. You had no idea how difficult it would be to find a part-time job or volunteer opportunities. And you certainly didn’t expect to feel lost and lonely.
So Here You Are
Bored, uninspired, and isolated. Retirement is a series of transitions and it’s hard to know what to do when the honeymoon phase wears off. You realized it the other day… You woke up rolled over and looked at the clock. You still couldn’t get used to sleeping passed 8:00. What used to be an exciting idea – having nothing planned for the day – had turned daunting and you wished you knew what you’d be doing in an hour. You felt like picking up the phone to call your kids, but you didn’t want to bother them for the third time this week. Immediately you felt sad and lonely.In that moment you knew in your gut it was time to take control of this new phase of life. You knew you couldn’t keep going on this path or you would start to feel more down and dull. But you realized you didn’t have any idea how to go about improving your experience. Instead you sat there doubting your ability to have a meaningful and purposeful life.
