Retirement: Purpose, Opportunity, and the Path Ahead
About This Event
Retirement: Purpose, Opportunity, and the Path Ahead is a monthly support group for retirees navigating the emotional and identity shifts of this new life stage. In a welcoming, steady space, we explore changing roles, purpose, and emerging opportunities while honoring the mix of uncertainty, curiosity, and personal growth that can accompany transition. Through gentle reflection, grounding practices, and supportive conversation, participants build clarity, confidence, and connection as they continue along the path ahead.
