What if the hardest chapter of your life ended up changing what abundance means to you?Tara Akins spent more than two decades caring for others as a nurse practitioner, helping patients navigate some of the most challenging moments of their lives. But at age 39, her world changed dramatically when unexplained back pain led to a shocking diagnosis of multiple myeloma. Overnight, Tara went from being the caregiver to becoming the patient, forcing her to confront fear, uncertainty, and a complete redefinition of who she was beyond her profession.In this powerful conversation, Tara shares her journey through cancer treatment, radiation, chemotherapy, a bone marrow transplant, and the emotional challenge of losing the identity she had built around caring for others. Along the way, she discovered the importance of relationships, boundaries, self-worth, and accepting support from others. This episode is a reminder that abundance isn't fixed. It evolves with our experiences, and sometimes life's most difficult seasons teach us the deepest lessons about what truly matters.Connect with Tara Akins:https://www.linkedin.com/in/tara-akins-b0073671/tmakins@health.ucsd.eduConnect with Amy Sylvis:https://www.linkedin.com/in/amysylvis/Contact Us:https://www.sylviscapital.comhttps://www.sylviscapital.com/webinarinfo@sylviscapital.com00:00 – Getting to Know Tara Akins03:22 – Finding Purpose in Transplant Medicine06:16 – Why Healthcare Was Always Tara's Calling08:36 – Tara's Definition of Abundance10:21 – The Diagnosis That Turned Her Life Upside Down18:25 – From Caregiver to Patient24:31 – Losing Her Identity Beyond the Job32:55 – Redefining Worth, Boundaries, and Relationships37:07 – Returning to Work After Cancer42:49 – The Lessons Adversity Taught Her About Abundance

Before walking onto a stage, there's always a certain amount of self-talk. For years, a colleague and I would encourage each other with a simple pep talk before a concert—something to sharpen our focus and concentration. Coaches do the same before athletic events. These moments are designed to build confidence, motivation, and clarity. Today's message is a kind of pep talk as well—a reminder to realign with what truly matters: our values, purpose, and the life we're intentionally creating. At halftime of life, we are often given a unique opportunity: the chance to reassess, realign, and intentionally create a next chapter based not on pressure or performance, but on purpose and values. This stage of life is not about starting over from zero. It is about building wisely from everything already accumulated—skills, experience, relationships, wisdom, resilience, and perspective.

In uncertain times, purposeful work can feel impractical and out of reach. But award-winning investigative reporter Jodi Kantor argues that meaning is both essential and available to all of us. Anne and Frances dive into the lessons from Jodi's latest book, “How to Start: Discovering Your Life's Work,” and explore practical strategies for anyone looking to chart a more purposeful career. The three also discuss two key principles for finding work that matters and challenge the idea that economic stability and purpose are mutually exclusive.

"You've got to befriend your own self, because your adversary lives within, it's not just on the outside. So, if we want to see peace in the world, be the peace that you seek to see in the freaking world." —Janie Terrazas   What if getting fired, divorced, or "losing everything" was actually your redirection, not your rejection? In this powerful episode, mindfulness coach and creator of PazMesa, Janie Terrazas, shares how she went from top-earning corporate telecom rep to LA TV host and actor, and eventually to a trauma-informed life and relationship coach helping people regulate their nervous systems, process grief, and return to inner peace. Janie doesn't speak from theory. She speaks from corporate burnout, industry darkness, divorce, spiritual awakening, and deep inner work. She breaks down how our unprocessed grief, unresolved trauma, and constant stress quietly run the show—until we finally decide to pause, go within, and heal. If you've ever felt like: • You're "successful on paper" but empty inside • A job loss, breakup, or betrayal wrecked your sense of worth • You're constantly performing, people-pleasing, and overachieving just to feel "enough", this conversation will shift how you see your story. In this episode, you'll learn: • How Janie walked away from a "cush," high-paying telecom career to follow a deeper calling • The surprising way corporate sales rejection prepared her for Hollywood and entrepreneurship • Why misogyny, microaggressions, and being underestimated became fuel for her growth • The real meaning of PazMesa ("peace within") and how it became her life's work • What mindfulness-based stress reduction actually looks like in everyday life • How trauma, grief, and nervous system dysregulation quietly shape our relationships • Why you can (and must) grieve things that didn't "die"—like careers, friendships, and versions of people • The difference between believing and knowing when it comes to faith and inner peace • How to start "powering up the peace within" when you feel lost, ashamed, or stuck   Key themes: Mindfulness, grief, trauma, spiritual awakening, nervous system regulation, authenticity, and turning pain into purpose. If you're in a season of loss, transition, or questioning everything, this episode will help you see your story through a new lens—and remind you that what feels like an ending might actually be your beginning.   Be Inspired! with Daniel:  Website (Makings of a Millionaire Mindset) Website (Daniel Gomez Global) Facebook Facebook Group X Instagram LinkedIn Pinterest YouTube   Episode Highlights: 01:22 Meet Janie 05:27 Transitioning to Mindfulness Coaching 08:10 Challenges and Resilience in Corporate Sales   17:46 Spiritual Awakening and Personal Growth  22:56 The Role of Mindfulness on Personal and Professional Life 28:12 Dealing with Grief and Loss 35:18 The Power of Authenticity and Connection 40:04 Trust Your Voice   Resources:

Are you in a season where you're just trying to GET through it to the next thing? Maybe you're waiting until your kids are older, until you hit a goal, until life feels more fulfilling — and THEN you'll really show up for God.  I get real about a heart check I had in motherhood — realizing I was running on empty, living out of overwhelm and exhaustion instead of purpose and joy. I share what shifted everything and how recognizing that where God has placed you right now is intentional can completely transform your everyday. In this episode: Why we fall into "I'll live more purposefully when…" thinking (in motherhood, relationships, goals & faith) My honest moment with the Fruit of the Spirit — and what I realized wasn't showing up in my life How gratitude became a game-changer (+ the Scriptures that back it up) Why the mundane moments — tantrums, 2am nursing, emails — are purposeful places for God to grow and use you The calling we have RIGHT NOW: to love, serve, and walk with God wherever He has us Scriptures referenced: Galatians 5 (Fruit of the Spirit), Colossians 3:17, Colossians 3:23, Matthew 22:37, Romans 14:8, Philippians 2:3-7, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Psalm 100:4, Ephesians 5:20, Philippians 4:6 Links: Daily Grace Co.

Is it possible to forgive someone who has taken everything from you?That's the question at the heart of the second half of my conversation with Davey Blackburn.After losing his wife, Amanda, and unborn daughter, Evie, in a tragic act of violence in 2015, Davey made national headlines when he publicly extended forgiveness to the men responsible. But as he explains in this episode, forgiveness was not a feeling that came naturally. It was a decision that was rooted in faith and continually renewed over time.In this conversation, Davey shares how his understanding of forgiveness has evolved over the years and why he believes forgiveness is ultimately about trusting God with justice. He offers a perspective that is both challenging and freeing for those who have been deeply wounded by the actions of others.We also explore the growth of Nothing Is Wasted Ministries, the organization that emerged from Davey's journey through grief. He reflects on what it means to steward pain well, how God can redeem suffering without minimizing it, and why our greatest impact often comes through simple obedience rather than grand plans.Perhaps most encouraging is Davey's message to those who are still in the early stages of grief and simply cannot see any purpose in their pain. Rather than offering easy answers, he reminds us that healing is a process, faith is often borrowed from community, and God is patient with our questions.This episode is filled with wisdom for anyone navigating loss, disappointment, trauma, or unanswered questions.Listen to the first half of our conversation HERE!  Resources and Links:Nothing is Wasted WebsiteNothing Is Wasted PodcastDavey Blackburn's book: Nothing Is Wasted: A True Story of Hope, Forgiveness, and Finding Purpose in PainPain to Purpose CourseIf this episode encouraged you, please share it with a friend and leave a review.

Sometimes the thing that breaks you becomes the very thing that gives your life purpose. At 19, Miguel Bautista was driven, active, and always pushing himself to the limit. He was an athlete, a personal trainer, a top performer at work, and the kind of person who believed the answer was always to work harder, push through, and keep going. But over time, his body started sending signals he could no longer ignore. Fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, heart palpitations, and strange physical symptoms eventually led him into years of searching for answers. Doctors told him his tests looked normal, but Miguel knew something was deeply wrong. At his lowest point, he was bedridden, living with his grandparents, unable to feed himself, and wondering if life was still worth living. This conversation dives into Miguel's journey through chronic fatigue syndrome, the identity loss that comes when your body no longer lets you live the way you used to, and the turning point that helped him understand the role of the nervous system in his recovery. Miguel shares how finding a purpose bigger than himself kept him alive, why pushing harder is not always the answer, and how he now helps others move from simply surviving to truly thriving. Through pain, illness, grief, and recovery, Miguel's story is a powerful reminder that even when life feels impossible, there is still hope. And sometimes, healing begins when you stop fighting your body and start listening to what it is trying to tell you. Guest Bio Miguel Bautista is the founder of CFS Recovery, a global program helping people recover from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Long COVID, fibromyalgia, and other nervous system-driven conditions. After experiencing severe, unexplained symptoms at 19 that left him bedridden and hospitalized, Miguel began searching for a deeper understanding of what was happening in his body. His own recovery led him to develop a structured approach focused on nervous system regulation, behavioural recalibration, and long-term stability. Today, through CFS Recovery, Miguel and his team have helped thousands of people around the world make meaningful progress, rebuild their capacity, and return to fuller, more independent lives. You'll hear About How Miguel went from athlete and high performer to bedridden with chronic fatigue syndrome Why pushing harder can sometimes make chronic symptoms worse The identity loss that can happen when illness takes away the life you knew How Miguel found a bigger purpose during his darkest season Why nervous system regulation became a key part of his recovery How CFS Recovery was born from Miguel's promise to help others heal Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Episode Introduction 01:15 Miguel's Mission to Help People Recover 03:15 Life Before Chronic Fatigue Syndrome 07:00 Becoming Bedridden and Reaching Rock Bottom 09:00 Understanding the Nervous System Connection 11:15 Finding Purpose in the Darkest Season 17:15 Looking Under the Hood Instead of Chasing Symptoms 23:00 Why Pushing Harder Can Keep You Stuck 30:15 Turning Pain Into Purpose 32:30 How CFS Recovery Was Created 36:15 Miguel's Free Recovery Roadmap Resource 41:45 Miguel's Message for Anyone Who Feels Hopeless 44:00 Final Reflections and Key Takeaways Chuck's Challenge This week, take one step toward listening to what your body and mind are trying to tell you. Maybe that means slowing down instead of pushing harder. Maybe it means asking for help. Maybe it means admitting that what you are feeling is not something you have to ignore, hide, or fight through alone. And if you are in a season where life feels heavy, hold on to this: there is still a spark inside of you. Because as Miguel shared, healing is possible. Your story is not over. And one day, you may look back and realize that the pain you survived became the purpose that helped you move forward.

In this episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast Coach Blu talks to Cliff McDonald. Cliff's story is a recovery "origin + engine" narrative: he connects the early, hard-won decision to get sober with the ongoing, daily work that keeps him there. The episode frames recovery not as a finish line, but as a lifestyle built through connection, practical support systems, and meaningful contribution to other people. Cliff describes recovery as something he had to build, not something that simply "happened" after a final decision. He shares the personal turning points that brought him from isolation and chaos to stability, then he broadens the focus to what sustained progress actually requires.

There are episodes where you learn… and then there are episodes where you feel something.This is one of those.Sean Foulkes didn't start track and field because of a dream—he started because his friends wouldn't let him skip practice. But what began as simple peer pressure turned into a deep pursuit of mastery, fueled by curiosity, VHS film breakdowns, and hours of self-coaching.Then life shifted.College brought unexpected challenges, new environments, and moments that forced Sean to step back and reevaluate who he was and where he was headed.And sometimes, that's exactly what's needed.A single moment helping a friend unlocked something bigger: a realization that coaching wasn't just something he could do—it was something he needed to do.This episode is about growth, identity, and the power of rediscovering direction through sport.

Michael F. Kay spent decades as a CPA and financial professional before transitioning into life coaching focused on the emotional and identity side of retirement. In this conversation, he explains the origin of “Chapter X” (solve for X) and why many high-performing men reach retirement without a clear picture of what comes next.Together, Jacquie and Michael unpack the universal fears that show up in retirement—relevance, vitality, identity—and why the solution is never one-size-fits-all. Michael shares practical ways to reclaim curiosity, experiment without pressure, and let go of ego-driven competition that no longer serves you. They also talk about the value of remembering past transitions (your first day at work, your first promotion) as proof you already have the tools to navigate change. Michael describes exercises from his book—including writing a multi-perspective eulogy—to clarify values and live intentionally now. The episode closes with a powerful reminder: retirement is your chance to curate your days around meaning and joy, not “shoulds,” deadlines, or status.Key topics discussed Michael's path: musician → CPA → financial life planner → life coachWhy retirement questions start with: “What does that mean to you?” • The origin of “Chapter X” and the idea of “solve for X”What “X” really is: what gets you out of bed, meaning, purpose, curiosityWhy high-performing men often struggle more with the transitionIdentity beyond the job title: “Who are you when you're no longer your job?”The danger of “waiting to die” and the sadness of purposeless later yearsDepression in seniors and the pull of living in the pastRetirement as a new transition: reclaiming a beginner's mindNo one dies from being uncomfortable: normalizing transition anxietyUnlearning: ego, competition, ladder-climbing, and “should”Go-go / slow-go / no-go stages and using vitality wiselyContribution doesn't have to be big: small acts that lift othersJoy as a filter: if it isn't joyful, don't do itCurating your day: energy, sleep, priorities, and flexibilityThe book's process: progressive exercises + expert chapters (gerontology, psychology, exercise, couples)The eulogy exercise: clarifying values and living them nowAction steps: Define your X: Write down what you want to get out of bed for in this season of life.Try a beginner's mind experiment: Pick one new activity and commit to 3 tries—no pressure to “be good.”Audit your “shoulds”: List the things you do out of obligation; cross out one this week.Recall a past transition: Write about your first day at your first real job—what did you learn about adapting?Create a 2–3 item day: Put only 2–3 priorities on your calendar, leaving space for joy.Connect with Michael: https://michaelfkay.comGrab Michael's book on Amazon

In this episode of Torsion Talk, Ryan shares a raw and honest conversation about leadership, entrepreneurship, burnout, purpose, and what happens when business owners become so focused on growth that they lose sight of themselves.Ryan opens up about a realization that many entrepreneurs eventually face: building a successful company is one skill, but running and operating it long-term may require a completely different type of leader. He discusses why he believes his greatest strength isn't operations or day-to-day management, but finding exceptional people, casting vision, building teams, and creating opportunities for others to succeed.The conversation explores what happens when business owners finally create systems and leadership teams that allow them to step back. Instead of celebrating the freedom they've worked so hard to create, many struggle with questions about identity, purpose, and what comes next. Ryan shares his personal journey of discovering who he is outside of work and why finding hobbies, passions, and personal fulfillment is critical for long-term success.The episode also dives into adversity in leadership, difficult conversations with employees, and why some of the strongest relationships in business are forged through conflict rather than avoiding it. Ryan explains why too many business owners are quick to give up on good people instead of investing the time necessary to work through challenges, improve communication, and strengthen trust.Throughout the discussion, he shares lessons learned from years of entrepreneurship, managing multiple businesses, building leadership teams, and navigating the emotional realities that come with responsibility. He talks about the importance of self-investment, personal growth, accountability, grace, and learning how to lead others without sacrificing your own well-being.Topics include leadership development, entrepreneurship, business ownership, company culture, employee retention, conflict resolution, burnout, work-life balance, personal growth, finding purpose outside of work, team building, leadership accountability, and creating healthy organizations that can thrive without constant owner involvement.If you're a business owner, entrepreneur, manager, or leader trying to build a successful company while maintaining strong relationships and a meaningful life, this episode offers practical insights and hard-earned lessons from the trenches.Subscribe to Torsion Talk on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts for more conversations about leadership, business growth, entrepreneurship, garage door industry trends, AI, marketing, and personal development.Find Ryan at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://garagedooru.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://aaronoverheaddoors.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://markinuity.com/⁠Check out our sponsors!Sommer USA - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://sommer-usa.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Surewinder - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://surewinder.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stealth Hardware - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://quietmydoor.com/⁠

You've been told that finding your passion is woo-woo nonsense. You've been told that purpose will solve everything once you crack the code. Neither is honest. What's honest is this: most people already know what they want. They just won't get out of their seat and go after it. Today I'm sharing the simple formula I've used for decades to actually face what you want, build it, and live it. And the scientists are finally proving what I figured out years ago. If you've been stuck in neutral, press play. Featured Story A month ago, I walked into the gym unmotivated. I didn't want to be there. I'd been doing my routine, but something was missing. I spotted my friend Daniel and asked what he was doing. Buys and tries. I said I'd join him. He'd already planned the workout. Even grabbed the equipment for me. Free trainer. I did the same thing the next day with Billy. Then Rob. Two weeks in, the guys started asking me what I was doing before I even got through the door. This morning, mid-set on chest day at 225, Daniel said something that changed what working out means to me. Important Points The heaviest part of taking care of yourself is opening the front door. Once you're inside, momentum takes over. Passion isn't woo-woo. It's what you love and what you're willing to fight for. Stop letting people tell you otherwise. You already know what you want. You just won't get out of your seat and chase it. That's what we're fixing today. Memorable Quotes Passion is what you love. Passion is what you're willing to fight for. It's the stuff your heart already knows. You already know what you want. It may be buried a little, but you are not lost. You can rebuild and find it again. Exploration and fascination together equal facing your passion. That is the simple formula that has actually worked for me. Scott's Three-Step Approach First, explore the possibilities. Lift your head, open your eyes, and let yourself notice what is actually out there. Next, pay attention to what gets your attention. Do not judge it or analyze it. Just notice the pull and lean toward it. Finally, take a deep dive. Get fully immersed in what fascinates you and let it reveal your next path forward. Chapters 0:02 - Why passion and purpose are not really woo-woo 1:54 - How a workout posse came together by accident 2:46 - The heaviest part is opening the front door 4:08 - Step one: explore every possibility with no commitment 8:35 - Step two: pay attention to what gets your attention 10:02 - Step three: take a deep dive and lean all the way in 13:03 - The honest formula that actually works for life Connect With Me Search for the Daily Boost on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify If you enjoy the Daily Boost, you might like Notes From Scott.

Franchise coach meets legendary entrepreneur — David Meltzer joins Giuseppe Grammatico on the Franchise Freedom Podcast for an unforgettable conversation about losing over $100 million, finding faith at rock bottom, and rebuilding through four core values: gratitude, forgiveness, accountability, and effective communication.David shares his complete origin story (from selling greeting cards in Akron, Ohio to running Samsung's smartphone division and becoming CEO for the real-life Jerry Maguire agent), reveals the "Stop, Drop, and Roll" method for handling setbacks, explains why the "dummy tax" makes franchises one of the smartest investments, and gives his exact framework for evaluating any business opportunity.Giuseppe (certified franchise consultant and franchise business advisor) shares how David's overlap agreement transformed his referral-based franchise consulting business and discusses how candidates can transition from corporate careers to executive semi-passive franchise ownership — without quitting their jobs first.

Who you're becoming requires you to leave behind the version of yourself you already know. That's where this conversation starts. Dr. Felecia Froe sits down with Dr. Abigail Aiyepola for a different kind of Wealth B-Hers conversation, one centered on alignment, transformation, purpose, and the many ways we give birth to new versions of ourselves. Dr. Abigail shares how moving to Cabo became part of a deeper season of rebirth for her, how life often moves in cycles rather than straight lines, and why the darkness of transition holds both difficulty and development. They talk about cocoon seasons, divine timing, ancestral purpose, the courage to stop living for other people's approval, and what it means to prepare the soil before planting the seed. This conversation is not about birth in the physical sense. It's about birthing a book, a business, a calling, a new identity, or a life that finally feels aligned with who you were created to become. 00:00 - Death, Rebirth, and the Butterfly Season 07:36 – How Dr. Abigail Found Her Way to Cabo 12:24 – Choosing the Beautiful Crazy 17:45 – Knowing What You Are Here For 23:07 – Accepting Your Purpose 32:42 – Self-Acceptance and Transformation 38:00 – A New Version of Yourself 41:40 – What Are You Really Gestating? 46:45 – The Elephant, the Dog, and Divine Timing 48:40 – Finding Purpose in the Darkness     Ready to take the next step?   Connect with us today: Website: moneywithmission.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/moneywithmission/   Connect with Dr. Abigail!

Sometimes life's hardest setbacks lead us directly to our greatest purpose. Candice Snyder shares a deeply personal journey of growing up with a heart for helping others, building a career as a dental hygienist, and then facing a life-changing injury that forced her to completely rethink who she was. Through chronic pain, disability, motherhood, and years of uncertainty, she slowly uncovered new purpose through community, direct sales, leadership, and eventually creating a successful podcast platform that amplifies powerful stories. Her story is a reminder that disability, setbacks, or age never erase purpose. Growth, reinvention, and impact can begin at any stage of life.   Find out More about Patricia: https://PatriciaDrain.com

What do you do when the dream God gave you feels completely disconnected from the reality you're living? When life feels unfair, painful, delayed, or deeply disappointing, it can be easy to wonder if God has forgotten you. In this episode, Christine Caine walks through the story of Joseph in Genesis 37–50 — one where betrayal, waiting, setbacks, and suffering aren't the end of the narrative. They're the process. From the pit to Potiphar's house. From prison to the palace. God wasn't absent in Joseph's darkest chapters. He was positioning him. Christine Caine shows that the painful seasons aren't detours from your purpose. They are the preparation for it. If you're in a waiting room right now, wondering whether God has forgotten the dream He placed in you, this message is for you. ✨ If you've ever asked questions like… ✅ Why would God allow painful seasons if He gave me the dream? ✅ What do I do when I feel forgotten or overlooked? ✅ Can God still use my trauma and setbacks for good? ✅ How do I forgive people who have deeply hurt me? ✅ How do I trust God's timing when the wait feels unbearable? ✅ What does faithfulness look like when nothing is going the way I planned? ✅ Is it possible for my story to still turn out the way God intended? ...then listen in!

I don't think we like to hear it, but there seems to be continual evidence that our culture is growing more risk averse, less willing to try new things, and as a result, becoming stagnant. Another data point on our reported, near all time low of subjective well-being. So I brought on an expert to discuss the issue. Ben Swire is an innovative thought leader on human connection and authentic living. Ben is an award-winning designer, writer, and former Design Lead at the iconic innovation firm IDEO, and he co-founded Make Believe Works where they help people build deeper relationships and discover their authentic purpose through creative activities. Ben has spent much of his time working with people and teams, helping them progress toward the things they really want. Ben says we all want inspiring experiences, meaningful work, and deep relationships. But those generally require risking vulnerability, inviting disappointment, and trusting others. So, we hesitate, settle to remain safe, and stay stuck. So he's worked to lessen the perceptions of risk, and this was why I had him on the show. Ben has a new book, SAFE DANGER: An Unexpected Method for Sparking Connection, Finding Purpose, and Inspiring Innovation. As you will hear, I really honed in on looking at what is really most at risk, and so often it is only our identity. Anxiety about what people might think. I'm not going to cheerlead that everyone quit caring what others think, but I'm definitely working to shine light on the issue and help us see how unfounded the concern often is.

Today, we are going to have a thoughtful conversation around retirement. How to understand it, gain a new perspective, and ultimately do it well. Retirement is one of life's biggest transitions.  My guest today, Chris Maduri, shares that people need the mindset and preparation to retire to something and not just from something. Chris Maduri has spent nearly two decades working in retirement and investment planning, helping people prepare for one of life's biggest transitions: Retirement - the moment work stops defining the structure of their days. Today, Chris works at the intersection of financial clarity and personal clarity, helping people navigate retirement and life's transitions with steadiness, confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose.   In today's episode, Chris shares: “What tends to surprise people the most emotionally when they start slowing down or stepping away from work?”  “How can someone begin discovering purpose before they retire instead of scrambling after?”  “What questions should people be asking themselves 3–5 years before retirement?”  “What becomes possible when someone approaches retirement with intention instead of fear?” “What are some non-financial habits or rhythms people should start building now?”  “How important is structure in retirement, and what happens when it's missing?”   CONNECT WITH CHRIS MADURI: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopher-maduri-69a1032/ X: https://x.com/CoverYrAssets Website: https://vibrantretirement.com/   CONNECT WITH DEBI Website – https://www.debironca.com Instagram - @debironca Email – info@debironca.com Free Group Coaching - https://debi.sequoiatransitioncoaching.com/group-coaching YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DebiRoncaOfficial Amy Throw | Stylist & Image CoachI style women in clothes they love & build opportunities they believe in https://www.cabionline.com/?pws=styledwithsoul   Check out my online course!
