In this episode, Shayna explains:

The Key to a Fulfilling Retirement with Wendy Leggett

Eight years ago, Wendy Leggett found herself at a crossroads after a successful and energizing 25-year career in sales leadership. So, she took the leap and ultimately founded her company, where she guides clients through a fulfilling retirement transition, focusing on well-being, identity, feelings of purpose, connectedness, and positive aging.

In this episode, she discusses:

• What, beyond the financials, is critical for retirement success
• Significant misconceptions about retirement
• How to go about reframing both purpose and identity
• “Transitions” as an internal change
• How being single or married affects a lot of choices
• Our role models for retirement probably weren’t positive
• Pro-aging and positive aging

Wendy has many nuggets throughout our conversation, some of my favourites are “If you are what you do, who are you when you don’t?” and the difference between finding our purpose and feeling purposeful.

Overcoming The Ageism in Our Lives with Corinne Auman

Corinne Auman is on a mission to change the conversation around aging. In a culture where many avoid thinking about older adulthood until the last minute, she urges us to embrace aging in a positive light.

Needless to say, we discuss ageism:

• Has it always existed or is it more obvious now that we’re living longer
• Ageism in the workplace
• Being “invisible” but needing to advocate for ourselves or our older parents
• Why new doctors might avoid elderly patients
• Facility care competency vs dementia awareness
• Kind lies
• Preparing for aging

Corinne uses the term “Keenagers”.  I’ve heard the term “Wellderly”.  I believe we agree the Keenagers will be the Wellderly of the future.
