Episode Synopsis

As the 4 year anniversary of the podcast's launch was approaching I got to thinking about what I've learnt from the dozens of wonderful guests I've had the pleasure to chat with, and decided to collate a summary of what - to me - seem to be the things that make for a successful retirement. Looking back over the conversations I've had there are some clear themes that come up time and again, which I summarise in this episode. I also reference specific episodes where these themes are discussed the most. The themes can be split into three groups: purpose, planning and looking after yourself and I talk through them in what feels like a chronological order. They are: Redefining retirement, Having a purpose, It's never too late, The brain and understanding how it ages, Taking control of your health and well-being, The Big D, Planning for a 30-year retirement, Investing, and Navigating the care system & the end of life.
