WHAT WE OFFER

What is a lifestyle transition? Marriage; loss of a parent, partner, or close friend; career change; moving; divorce; serious illness; starting a new business. It is all of these and more. But the leading lifestyle transition now confronting baby boomers is retirement. Every day 10,000 Americans cross this bridge into a new life.

Do boomers have a realistic sense of what their lives will be like once they cross the bridge? Are they prepared for the transition? Many will find their retirement experience unpredictable and confusing because any emotional adjustment to a major life change is likely to be uneven. The good news is that transition opens the door to a new life.

The Retirement life Planning Seminar

Research shows that those who do financial and life planning increase their satisfaction with the choices they make in retirement. So learn more about this transition at seminars focused on life planning - that half of the retirement equation that is typically overlooked. Seminar participants benefit from lively, interactive sessions in which they: share their own assumptions, fears, and dreams about retirement; learn about trends that will shape their life planning; gain insight into transition dynamics; learn from the stories of others who are already on the journey; receive information about on-line assessments, retirement life planning tools, and other useful resources.

Besides the program below, LIFESTYLE TRANSITIONS can also customize a program to meet the particular needs of an organization or group.

Retire Happy

Retire Happy is designed for those who are beginning to envision what their lives might look like once they are free. It is offered in two full-day formats: a half-day morning seminar with individual coaching sessions in the afternoon or a full-day program without coaching.

In advance of the seminar, participants may take the Retirement Success Profile™ or the LifeOptions™ Assessment. We explore attitudes about retirement to uncover hidden assumptions and expectations about this life-changing event as well as discussing our fears and dreams. Individual exercises foster self-reflection.

The instructor discusses transition and shares her story and the stories of others to illustrate the emotional adjustments typical in any major life change. We also discuss tools for planning "what's next" and complete an exercise intended to begin the life planning journey requisite for both work/life balance and a successful retirement transition.
