This week I attended a conference put on by the Retirement Coaches Association. https://retirementcoachesassociation.org/ They did a great job on with the virtual networking and the technology. And, there were some fantastic (and not so fantastic) speakers. Often when I go to conferences I hear nothing new. But, this was an exception.
Here are my notes:
In the past, people didn't age. They died. Today we live longer than ever before and many of us can expect long "retirements." What should those retirements look like?
Typically, there is no rite of passage into the Third Age. (ThirdAger)
For many, a flex retirement - that allows one to glide in and out of a workspace is an attractive idea.
Retirees have time affluence.
What do you want in the way of peak experiences? (Previously called a bucket list.)
Think about your two resumes - a career resume and a human being resume.
During the Second Age we accumulate, during the Third Age we release.
In adolescence we go from child to adult. In middlescence we move from adult to elder.
The Modern Elder is as curious as s/he is wise.
Many old people. Few Elders. An Elder is someone who knows s/he is going to die.
The denial of death and the worship of youth.
