Can a retirement expert retire?

Hi! I'm Patrice Jenkins, an organizational psychologist, author, and keynote speaker. I have devoted the past 15 years of my career to helping people prepare for the social and psychological side of retirement. Through my writing, speaking, and online retirement course, I have helped thousands of people navigate this next stage of life called retirement. The question I always start with is:

                          "What do you want to make yourself available to?" 

Now it's time to ask myself that question: What do I want to make myself available to? 

Since I plan to always have meaningful work in my life, sharing my wisdom and personal experience with retirement will continue to energize me. Send me your questions. I'll respond.

There is a whole lot more I want to myself available to: 

• Family
• Travel
• Create a fabric and wallpaper design company in collaboration with my sister
• Move to a waterfront home 
• Host a podcast show that inspires people to get started on their dreams

That's a good start...

Confucius is credited for saying, "We have two lives and the second one begins when you realize you only have one." 

I'm feeling an urgency to make the most of this one life. How about you? What do you want to make yourself available to? Maybe it's time to retire!
