Episode Synopsis

In this episode of the Retirement Optimism podcast, David shares how training for his first 29029 TRAIL event — three marathon-distance mountain climbs in three days — is helping him reflect on the power of discipline, structure, and long-term planning.

As spring meetings wrap up and uncertainty swirls around tariffs, markets, and global headlines, the message is clear: stay grounded. Stick to the plan. Whether you're hiking toward a physical summit or preparing for retirement, progress is built step by step, not in reaction to every headline.

Tune in for a timely reminder of what real preparation looks like — and why trusting the process is more important than ever.
