Episode 26: The Messy, Complicated Truth About Retirement

from Globally Grounded: The Work-Life Reset · host Kyra Khanna

In this episode of Globally Grounded, Kyra asks: What does retirement actually mean? And is the version we inherited even working for anyone? She unpacks the messy, complicated truth about retirement through a global lens, from the Japanese man her family met running a knife shop on the fourth floor of a Tokyo apartment building in his 80s, to Gen Z chasing FIRE in their 20s, to the Spanish word for retirement that literally means joy. She gets into the language, the data, the cultural differences, and three practices to help you figure out what retirement looks like for you…even if you’re nowhere near it.
