Retirement Lifestyle Plan

Retirement planning in Australia should be written down

Retirement is just the beginning!

8 Ways we can help you live the retirement you deserve and get the most enjoyment from it.

The reason we have retirement coaching is that most of us have been led to believe if we save enough money and develop the right financial plan everything else will just fall into place. For many of us, the reality is it doesn’t. We enter retirement with the best of intentions and we don’t plan for the mental, social, and physical aspects of retirement we are confronted with. These feelings and issues are not addressed within traditional retirement planning conversations.

How Does Retirement Coaching Help You with Your Retirement?

Like most of us, retirement planning has been primarily focused on ensuring you have enough money and rightly so.

To make things worse, we often only think about the finances and forget about day to day living in retirement.

At Planned Wishes, our retirement planning is all about making sure you have a meaningful, healthy and enjoyable retirement by concentrating on your thinking and your plan for retirement.

Life changes significantly when you retire. Retirement brings options that didn’t previously exist or need to be contemplated. This time in life can be very challenging.

Retirement lifestyle planning is much more than just financial readiness. I believe we need to make sure we live a satisfying life when we no longer must get up and go to work each day. Life will change when you retire and we at Planned Wishes Coaching help you to make sure that your non-financial (psychological preparation) aspects of retirement are carefully considered before making life-changing decisions.

As your workplace title or perceived status will no longer define you, you will discover that many of your social connections and activities will disappear as they revolved around work networks. You will feel lost or just not yourself anymore. In addition, you will have much more free time and be required to live on a fixed income.

Coaching helps you cope

Our Coaches guide you through the new choices and adaptions you have to make. We are focused on the challenges and opportunities that retirement has to offer and to make the most out of this chapter of your life. It helps you deal with issues like:

  • Deciding if you’re retiring, or just downshifting?
  • Identify what are your personal expectations and goals, what is important to you?
  • Deciding where you will live and how you will fill in your time?
  • How are you going to manage your health and handle the inevitable physical limitations?
  • Overcome negative beliefs about yourself and strategies to avoid feeling unproductive
  • Coping with loneliness and losing contact with work friends
  • Rediscovering or finding new interests and hobbies
  • Developing your relationship with your spouse or partner and other family members

Coaching support for retirement can even start before you retire. Planning for a smooth transition is very helpful to people. But if you’ve already retired, you can seek coaching at any time.

Retirement coaching can be defined as the process of helping clients prepare for and transitioning into everyday retirement life.
