Are you excited about your retirement but worried about getting bored and not having enough to do?
Has your work consumed you over the past 30 – 35 years and you are no longer sure what interests you have outside of work?
Are you concerned about a lack of a predictable structure, a different or limited social network or the demands that may be placed on you by your parents or children?
Do you have a pretty good idea of your basic plan but want to make sure all core components are in place?
Are you considering a new career in your retirement and want an opportunity to network and share ideas?
Are you starting out in your career and want to ensure that your career and life plan are in balance with each other?
While being financially prepared for retirement is important, addressing the emotional, physical and psychological realities before retiring, and integrating them into a balanced plan is ultimately the key to a successful and meaningful retirement.
This two-day workshop prepares you for a successful transition into retirement by addressing key areas of concern with realistic strategies. By the end of the session you have created a life plan that is practical, meaningful and specific to you.
This is a two-day workshop in Ottawa.
Space is still available for all course dates listed, unless otherwise noted.
