Retirement is not a cliff to jump off of, but an opportunity to build bridges grounded with your values and strengths.

In this episode, Stephen Stricklin is joined by guest Samantha Lane, an Associate Certified Coach who most often works with men and women making the huge transition to retirement. Samantha is passionate about helping individuals through major life changes, and being a guiding light for clients to find balance and satisfaction in their life as retirees. 

Samantha walks us through six non-financial mistakes people make going into retirement, identifying them and giving tips on how to combat them. She brings up some misconceptions many people have about retirement, and encourages listeners to be proactive about their expectations, so that they can have a fulfilling life in retirement. 

Samantha alleviates the heaviness that the new chapter of retirement can bring. The question of “what do I do next?” can be daunting. You don’t need to have all twenty years of retirement planned out, what you need to know is just the next right step forward. 

Samantha discusses:

• The longevity of life for the average retiree.
  
• How she found a life coach, in Minnesota and found clarity to do what she’s doing now.
  
• Moving back to Kansas City and starting her own coaching business in 2016.
  
• The longevity of your life being tied to your social wellness
  
• Six non-financial mistakes people make going into retirement
