Retire with purpose with Kim & Prue Watty

Most people spend decades planning financially for retirement.But what about everything else?The routines that shape your days. The sense of purpose that comes from your work. The connections, structure and identity you've built over a lifetime.In this episode of Money & a Good Life, we sit down with Prue and Dr Kim Watty, co-founders of The Main Act, to explore what happens when people retire without thinking about what comes next.Drawing on both personal experience and years of research, they share why creating a fulfilling retirement requires more than financial preparation, and how purpose, connection and community can play just as important a role.We talk about:Why retirement can be more challenging than many people expect.The loss of structure, identity and purpose that often comes with leaving work.Why financial preparedness is only one part of a successful retirement.The importance of thinking about what you want your next chapter to look like.The unique transitions many women experience throughout life and retirement.Why community, creativity, contribution and connection matter so much.How to move from simply retiring from something to retiring towards something.Whether retirement is right around the corner or still years away, this conversation is a reminder that a good retirement isn't just about having enough money. It's also about creating a life you're excited to wake up to.Here's to your Good Life.
