So... What is Retirement Now

Welcome to the very first episode of Retirement: The Great Escape Plan, brought to you by JBS Financial Strategists. In this opening conversation, host Jenny Brown is joined by her JBS business partners, Warren Hanna and Peter Folk, to explore one big question: So… what is retirement now? Retirement today isn't a simple finish line. For many, it brings excitement, but also uncertainty. Questions about identity, purpose, money and what life looks like beyond work. In this episode, the team discuss: • Why retirement can feel daunting — even when you're financially prepared • The emotional shift that comes with stepping away from work • The assumptions about retirement that no longer serve us • What decades of experience have taught them about navigating this transition This first episode sets the tone for the series, thoughtful, honest and grounded in great conversation. Whether you're 10–15 years away, transitioning, or already retired, this conversation is designed to help you feel more confident about what's ahead. Because retirement isn't about reaching the end, it's about designing what comes next. And thriving should be fun… and naps should be epic. // Connect with JBS Financial // LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram | YouTube Whilst all care has been taken in the preparation of this material, no warranty is given in respect of the information provided and accordingly JBS Financial Strategists Pty Ltd, an Australian Financial Services License Holder (N 486674), nor its related entities, employees or agents shall be liable on any ground whatsoever with respect to decisions or actions taken as a result of you acting upon such information.
