Episode 49 | Guest Conversation: Retirement - You're Not Done Yet! with Jo Hands

Retirement is something most of us plan for financially, but very few of us prepare for emotionally.In this conversation, Jo Hands and I explore what happens when the career you've worked so hard to build comes to an end, and why so many women find themselves asking, "What now?"We talk about identity, purpose and ambition in the next chapter of life, and why retirement doesn't have to mean slowing down.In many ways, it can be the beginning of something entirely new.Jo also shares her own story of stopping drinking, the surprising health changes she experienced, and why so many of the symptoms she thought were menopause disappeared once alcohol was no longer part of her life.This is a conversation about possibility. If retirement is on the horizon, or you're already there and wondering what comes next, I hope it leaves you feeling excited about the years ahead.More about Jo:Jo Hands is a life transitions coach and founder of RE:Life Rewire.
