The Fragile Decade: Turning Retirement Apprehension Into Anticipation
Retirement is one of life’s most meaningful transitions — and yet, it’s also one of the most misunderstood. The five years leading up to retirement and the five years that follow it make up what researchers call “The Fragile Decade”: a critical window where financial decisions, emotional readiness, clarity of vision, and lifestyle structure have the greatest impact on long‑term retirement happiness. This session will guide you through the emotional and financial roadmap of this decade so you can replace uncertainty with confidence, purpose, and anticipation. Together, we’ll explore the predictable phases of major life transitions, why retirement often feels more emotionally challenging than expected, and the practical steps you can take to prepare both your finances and your lifestyle for this new chapter.
