Beyond the Money: Finding Purpose and Pleasure in Retirement
Family, Wellness and Home
For some the prospect of retirement is a welcome change, for others it can bring uncertainty and even anxiety. “The Golden Years” can be a time of exploration and re-invention, but success is found not just in figuring out Medicare and managing your money, but by finding joy and meaning in your daily life. Without those critical elements, the golden years can quickly become tarnished. Whether you’re first thinking about retiring, have recently retired, or have been retired for some time, this class will help you find your way through the stages of this new, exciting, and sometimes challenging phase. From adjusting to a different daily routine, to finding vision and purpose, and discovering strategies for moving forward, we’ll discuss the tools, structure, and support you’ll need to make the most of your retirement years. The class will consist of one two-hour in-person seminar, and a one-hour follow-up session via Zoom set up privately with instructors.
