Endless time. But for many people, the habits, routines, and mindset they bring into retirement quietly work against them.

It walks through why health must come before money, why purpose does not magically appear, why relationships need to be redesigned, and why structure matters more than freedom.

This conversation is especially relevant if you are in your 40s, 50s, or 60s and want to avoid drifting once work ends. If you are feeling unsure about what comes next, worried about losing your identity, or sensing that retirement needs more than just a financial plan, this video will give you a clearer framework to think differently and move forward with intention. #retirement_transformed #retirementcouple #retirement BUY MARK'S BOOK!

    #315: 11 Bad Habits That Are Quietly Wrecking Your Retirement (Without you realizing)

    FREE 1 Year Checklist PDF: https://bit.ly/RTchecklist Most retirees do not ruin their retirement with one giant mistake. They ruin it slowly. One small bad habit at a time. And by the time they look up, they feel unhealthy, unfocused, uninspired, and disconnected from the life they thought they were stepping into. In this video, we break down the most common bad habits that quietly sabotage your retirement. These are habits we personally fell into during our first year and habits we see over and over again from the retirees we coach. From drifting through your mornings with no intention, to comparing your life to everyone you see online, to eating and drinking like you are still in your forties, these patterns add up fast if you do not catch them early. You will hear exactly how each habit shows up, why it becomes so destructive in this phase of life, and what to do instead so you can protect your health, your energy, your marriage, your friendships, and your sense of purpose. Retirement should feel meaningful. It should feel grounded. It should feel exciting. But none of that happens by accident. The link below is our free One Year Retirement Checklist. It will help you understand what is missing, what needs to change, and how to build a retirement that actually works for the next twenty or thirty years. #retirement_transformed #retirementcouple #retirement BUY MARK'S BOOK!

    Download the free Journaling Guide: https://bit.ly/RT-journal Health & Wellness Checklist: https://bit.ly/3uPXhkU Most of us carry our father's words far longer than we realize, and for many people those messages shape how, when, and why we choose to retire. In this video, I share the story of my father's final days, the lessons he passed on, and how those lessons pushed me to retire earlier than planned and build a very different life in this next chapter. My dad struggled with alcoholism, but he also gave me three core principles that shaped everything: work hard, play hard, and help people who are less fortunate. Those words guided my entire career, and they guided me again when it became clear that staying in a job I no longer loved was not how I wanted to spend the rest of my life. You will hear how I made the decision to leave work behind, how I brought those three principles into my retirement years, and why purpose, love, and connection matter more now than ever. I also talk about what my father never received from his own parents, how that shaped him, and how it shaped the way I try to show up for my kids and for the people I love. If you are thinking about retiring early, if you lost a parent young, or if you are wrestling with the messages you inherited from your family about work, success, and duty, this video will give you perspective and a clear way forward.

    One Year Retirement Checklist: https://bit.ly/RTchecklist. Five things I wish I knew before I retired and why the first six months of my retirement were filled with regret. In this video, we share the truth about retirement that no one talks about: too much free time, loss of identity, strained relationships, health struggles, and the myth that money will solve everything. You'll hear the story of a highly successful business owner who sold his company only to regret retirement until he rebuilt his life with purpose, passion, and a new identity. If you're entering retirement, already retired, or preparing for your discovery phase, these lessons will help you avoid the painful mistakes so many people make. What you'll learn in this video: - Why too much free time can cause stress and anxiety instead of freedom - How career success can hide your true identity – and how to reinvent yourself after retirement - Why love and friendship get harder, not easier in retirement, and how to strengthen relationships - The truth about money in retirement – and why it can't buy health, purpose, or joy - Why you need to treat retirement like a job with structure, habits, and intentional planning Whether you're 55, 60, 65, or 70, this conversation will show you how to create a retirement filled with meaning, energy, and happiness. #retirement_transformed #retirementcouple #retirement BUY MARK'S BOOK!
