Retirement Is Not Leaving the Arena
-
Narrated by:
-
By:
Jake Fishbein joined his first men's group for research.
He was helping write a novel about men's groups and thought he should probably see one from the inside.
What he didn't expect was that the experience would change the course of his own life.
In this episode, we discuss why retirement can trigger an unexpected identity crisis, the challenge of separating who we are from what we do, and what it means to stay engaged with life long after a career ends.
We cover:
- Why retirement can trigger an unexpected identity crisis
- The challenge of separating who you are from what you do
- What it means to transition from achievement to eldership
- Why staying "in the arena" matters at every stage of life
- The fear of becoming irrelevant as we grow older
- Lessons from a woman who began her most meaningful work in her seventies
