248. How to Take Mini-Retirements with Jillian Johnsrud

from Financial Feminist · host Her First $100K

What if everything you’ve been told about retirement is a lie? For years, we’ve been sold the idea that we should grind it out for 40+ years and finally start enjoying life at 65 — but what if that model is broken? In this episode, I’m joined by author and financial coach Jillian Johnsrud to talk about why the traditional retirement plan is failing us and how mini-retirements can give you freedom, fulfillment, and even more money along the way. We’re unpacking exactly how to afford extended breaks, how to negotiate time off without tanking your career, and why rest is one of the smartest investments you can make.  Jillian’s links: Website: https://retireoften.com/ Book: https://lnk.to/retireoften Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jillianjohnsrud/ Planning worksheet: https://retireoften.com/mini/  Negotiating worksheet: https://retireoften.com/onemonth/  To get more resources including any freebies mentioned in this episode, head to https://herfirst100k.com/ffpod Learn more about your ad choices.
