NEW - How Do I Retire Early? Or Do I Just Need a Break…

Jessica Moorhouse, certified financial counsellor and author of Everything But Money, asks one question to everyone who tells her they want to retire early, and the answer usually isn't about money at all. The conversation works through a specific number of days before burnout starts to set in, and a piece of math almost nobody runs before deciding they need a year off. Jessica also draws a distinction between two terms people use as if they're the same thing, one that changes what someone should actually be planning for. The real answer to "how do I retire early" turns out to be a very different question than most people are asking. Topics: financial independence, retire early myth, sabbatical math, burnout recovery, mini retirement GUEST: Jessica Moorhouse | jessicamoohouse.com Originally aired on 2026-08-17
