Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Today's retirees face more uncertainty than ever: market swings, inflation, and the disappearance of traditional pensions. In this episode of Inspired Money, host Andy Wang brings together four of the leading voices in retirement planning for a candid, practical conversation—one that moves beyond “rules of thumb” to reveal actionable ways to create reliable income and lasting peace of mind for your retirement years. If you want clarity in your retirement income plan, ideas to maximize your savings, or strategies for a fulfilling next chapter, this episode is packed with the real-world wisdom you need.

It's one that focuses on stability of cash flows over time.” The panel discusses why shifting your mindset from maximizing account balances to managing sustainable cash flow is key to peace of mind. Work, Entrepreneurship, and Purpose Play Critical Roles in a Modern Retirement Kerry Hannon points out that working longer—whether through career extension, entrepreneurship, or passion projects—can boost both financial security and life satisfaction. “How can you continue to work longer? It's a dramatic way to give yourself some security in retirement if you can stay working longer.” The episode explores creative ways Gen X and boomers are redefining "retirement." There's No One-Size-Fits-All: Frameworks vs. Rules Roger Whitney insists that “the answer to almost every question...is ‘It depends'.” No single formula fits everyone; a personalized, evolving plan that balances what you want out of life with practical financial strategies is essential. The episode delves into why regular reviews and customized “guardrails” are more important than rigid withdrawal rules. Guardrails, Buckets, and Behavioral Coaching Are More Vital Than Ever Jamie Hopkins and Dana Anspach review popular strategies like bucket and guardrails approaches, emphasizing that tools and behavioral coaching work best when tailored to each retiree's unique needs and anxieties. Jamie also warns about new financial threats: “I think that fraud...is going to become rampant. It's the biggest concern out there...it's a big concern.” Call-to-Action If you've been feeling uncertain about your own retirement income plan, here's your assignment for the week: Take 30 minutes to map out your expected sources of income in retirement—pensions, Social Security, savings, investments—and identify any potential gaps. Just getting it on paper can give you clarity and a starting point to make smarter, more confident decisions. Thanks for tuning in to Inspired Money.

Send us a textGrab your coffee—and maybe a calculator—because we're getting real about retirement. In this episode, I sit down with retirement plan whisperer Courtenay Shipley to chat about all things 401(k), from why this benefit is more than just a line item to how we really need to be talking about it with our employees.Whether you're a manager, an HR pro, or someone who just keeps “set up 401(k)” on your to-do list indefinitely (we see you), Courtenay brings the clarity, strategy, and humor needed to finally make retirement planning feel… possible.We talk about: ✅ Why retirement benefits still matter—yes, even for Gen Z ✅ The value of automatic enrollment (hint: it helps people who forget to adult) ✅ Why skipping the company match is like turning down free money ✅ The most common types of 401(k) plans and what makes each one tick ✅ Growth strategies that don't require a finance degree ✅ Communication tips to help employees actually understand their retirement options ✅ Why helping people “get the why” is the key to better participation and less future regretCourtenay also breaks down how to prepare for the transition to retirement and how organizations can support employees at every stage of their financial planning journey.This episode is all about turning that “I'll get to it later” mindset into “I'm on it!” Because let's be honest—future-you deserves a nap on a beach, not a panic attack at 68.Resources Mentioned:

In this episode, we're diving deep into the art of staying calm when everything around us feels like it's going bonkers.Let's face it - our world is loud. From breaking news to social media pings, from work emails to family group chats, it's a constant barrage of information. And while some of this noise is important (hello, world-changing events!), a lot of it is just... well, noise. It's the kind of stuff that leaves us feeling drained, overwhelmed, and disconnected from our inner selves.The Three Types of NoiseThe wake-up call: This is the good noise that reminds us we're alive and part of something bigger.The pseudo-urgency: Those clickbait headlines designed to hack our nervous systems.The background static: The sneaky, everyday distractions that dull our intuition.Finding Your Calm in the StormBut don't worry, I've got your back. We'll talk about practical ways to turn down the volume and tune into what really matters. You'll learn how to:Pause and ask yourself key questions when you're feeling overwhelmedDistinguish between meaningful action and emotional reactionsGive yourself permission to rest and rechargeWhy It MattersHere's the kicker: finding calm isn't just about feeling good (though that's pretty awesome). It's about becoming the kind of person the world needs right now. Someone who's:Rooted, not reactiveSovereign, not scatteredClear and conscious, not caught up in the noiseRemember, you don't have to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders 24/7. It's not selfish to take care of yourself - it's absolutely necessary.So, if you're ready to find your zen in the middle of life's circus, tune in. Let's turn down the volume together and rediscover the power of a calm, clear mind.

With over 25 years of experience in financial services, Kelly has a passion for helping employers optimize their retirement plans and empower their employees to achieve financial security and retire with confidence. Combining financial expertise with wellness coaching, Kelly enjoys crafting comprehensive strategies that support employees throughout their health and wealth journey. She holds key certifications in fiduciary retirement plan management (AIF, QPFC, CRPS) as well as functional health and wellness coaching (NBC-HWC, A-CFHC), enabling her to implement a whole-person strategy in retirement plan management.She has also been recognized twice by The Financial Times, in September 2015 & 2016, as one of the “Top 401 Financial Advisers” in the 401(k) field and by NAPA, the National Association of Plan Advisors, as a 2017 and 2019 Top Woman Advisor All-Star in the retirement plan industry.In this episode, Eric and Kelly Majdan discuss:Signs of success in financial wellness programsUnderstanding employees' needs The true measure of financial wellness program success Focus on the people, not the numbers Key Takeaways:Financial wellness programs should expect 5-15% engagement initially, which is actually a sign of success, not failure. The goal is to help employees move through different stages of behavioral change at their own pace.Understanding employees' needs is critical - start with a comprehensive survey to identify what financial topics are most important to your workforce, and design programs that meet them where they are in their financial journey.Measuring success goes beyond traditional metrics. Look at engagement indicators like webinar attendance, article clicks, survey participation, and gradually expanding program participation over 2-3 years.The most important approach is remembering that wellness programs are about people, not just numbers. Connect with employees personally, provide hope through success stories, and create supportive, ongoing resources that recognize individuals are at different stages of financial readiness.“Remember, you're dealing with people. Remember that they're not participants, they're not employees, they're not co-workers, they're not associates, they're people. Connect with them where they are and see them as the people that they are in front of you.” - Kelly MajdanConnect with Kelly Majdan:Website: https://www.onedigital.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kellymajdan/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.
