Managing Our Transition into Retirement

  • Summary

  • As we enter into Retirement we once again realize that there are a number of new challenges we face, just as there were when we entered our earlier stages; adolescent, young adult, adult, and mid-life. Our ability to be adapt effectively and make the most out of each stage is a direct function of educating ourselves on the changes that willl likely occur and how to manage these transitions. For example, as we become a young adult, we must learn how to take responsibility for our lives as we gain independence, develop more serious relationships, manage our own finances, make adult decisions, define our own values and beliefs, and begin to define who and what we want to be in our life. Most primarily learn about each new stage of life using the "School of Hard Knocks" approach which can be daunting and riddled with challenges.
    The same is true of Retirement. However, by educating ourselves on the phases of Retirement and the many types of changes and challenges we are likely to experience, can help us to manage our transition better with more foresight and planning.
    This podcast will share two key frameworks to help you manage your transition into any stage of life, including retirement. The first is understanding change and the stages of change. Change is actually a process and we will use the work of William Bridges and his model of change to learn how to better prepare for, and manage, personal change.
    The second framework relates to the Emotions of Change. Once again there is a process we go through as we experience high level change. We will use the work of Elizabeth Kubler-Ross to understand the emotions of change.
    We are fortunate once again to have as our guest, Heather Orengia, who is a coach and uses these frameworks to help guide her clients.
    Here is to learning how to make the most out of our retirement!!!
