We often think of retirement planning as preparing financially so we can do less of what we don’t want to do (i.e., work). But some of us love our work and don’t know when or how to leave. We may know how to stay ‘busy’ in retirement, but we also have the opportunity to approach life from a new perspective – one that creates more meaning and, in turn, better health.
