 Karen's "Retire
Happy" is a must for anyone
interested in creating a blueprint
for life after the desk job. The
evaluation instruments used were
unique and informative. Her personal
coaching was invaluable.

Karen
brought insight to things about retirement
that I had not yet begun to consider,
and she brought relevancy to those
that I had.

I
highly recommend "Retire Happy" to
those who understand that retirement will affect
them socially and emotionally, not just financially.
Karen does a superb job identifying the personal
issues following retirement and provides helpful
exercises to help participants with the transition.
Her presentation is not only insightful, but
also entertaining and engaging.

"Retire
Happy" brings retirement down
to the personal level. Karen explained
how retirement affects our relationships
with our family members and loved
ones, addressed the issue of leisure
time, or in some instances, excessive
leisure time, and pointed out the
psychological aspects of job separation.
I found Karen's candid anecdotes
about the difficulties she faced
when she retired especially valuable.
All in all, I found the seminar very
helpful in preparing me for my own
retirement and would recommend that
anyone thinking about retiring or
even changing careers take this seminar.

In
a short time, I learned a lot about myself
in "Retire Happy." I now know
if I plan for my retirement, I will be
successful. Karen's practical suggestions
for those of us still worried about the
financial angle of retirement were so helpful.

It
was a pleasure to participate in "Retire
Happy." Karen involves all participants
and relates the subject matter to
her own experience. The seminar was
lively and provided valuable insight
into the emotional aspects of the
retirement transition and my own
feelings of uncertainty. The list
of reading resources will be useful
for my future planning.

I found Dr. Vierneisel's
presentation very thought provoking. "Retire
Happy" encouraged
me to strive for a "healthy" retirement.
