Podcast Overview

Many of us are living longer than ever before. For some of us this has changed the way we look at our futures. For a few of us, the concept of a conventional 'retirement' is extinct. Instead we want to define for ourselves 'what happens next' in our lives. We believe that this means looking at the components which make a life well lived, and making improvements in these areas of our lives. This podcast is designed to support you on this journey, regardless of what you're aiming for. What Happens Next is up to you. However we'd love to help you along the way.

Episode 83 - How To Plan A Happy Retirement Week Structure, Purpose & Wellbeing After Work

What does a good week actually look like after you stop working? In this episode of What Happens Next, Chris Daems explores one of the most overlooked parts of retirement planning: how you'll spend your time. Most people carefully plan their pensions, investments and retirement income, but far fewer think about the weekly structure, purpose and wellbeing that work used to provide. Chris explains why retirement is not just a financial transition, but a lifestyle transition too. He breaks down five key pillars of a well-balanced retirement: financial wellbeing, physical health, intellectual stimulation, social connection and community contribution. You'll learn how to design a practical "good week" in retirement by building in movement, learning, friendships, volunteering, financial confidence and space for freedom. Chris also shares why preparation can make the difference between feeling fulfilled after work and feeling lost, lonely or unstructured.
