Creating a plan for a happy and fulfilling retirement

“If I were to use one word to sum up our time together, the word would be ‘clarity’. Using the various tools and processes Michelle recommended has allowed me to create a blueprint for retirement. In some ways, retirement is like starting college – you might not know what your major is on Day One, but you know what you need to do to graduate! My plans for retirement are similar in that I now know what I need to have in my life to make me happy, and I know where I need to focus. I don’t have a ‘major’ but I have lots of ‘minors’ and putting them all together will mean a successful, happy, and fulfilling retirement. Michelle helped me break it all down into smaller pieces and create a plan…while I’m also staying aware and open to receiving new thoughts and ideas as they come up.

My weekly calls with Michelle were amazing. She was always supportive of me. No. Matter. What. She meets people where they are, which is invaluable. I always ended our calls feeling stronger-better-wiser than when we began. I felt encouraged. Uplifted. Valued. I have loved this thought-provoking work and the weekly assignments that have helped guide and direct me during my life coaching adventure.

This has been a worthwhile and meaningful process. I am grateful I have done this work. Thank you, Michelle!”
