9. Navigating Retirement, Cultivating a New Identity, Embracing Quietness, and Becoming More Whole with Wife, Mom, Grandma, and Former Mortgage Industry Expert – Diane Clark
Lifelong Texas Gal, Diane Clark, is a wife, mom, grandma to four, and an exceptionally successful career woman.
In this episode of Courage Becomes Her, Diane talks about planning and preparing for retirement, as well as becoming aware of how much her identity was wrapped up in her work and what it has looked like to embrace quietness and become more whole through this new season of retirement.
Be honest with yourself about your hesitations for retirement
Identify the lifestyle you want to have in retirement so that you can prepare for that and work toward it
Surround yourself with good people who will help you achieve your goals
Cling to your friends; get involved in their lives
Have relationships outside of your work life
Enjoy the ordinary in life
Resources from my conversation with Diane:
There are hundreds of versions of the Bible available today; here are my two favorites: The Message and The Life with God Bible
Want to talk about preparing for retirement or how to move to a lifestyle of being quiet or discovering who you are aside from your career?
