What really happens after retirement?
If you’re approaching retirement—or already there—and wondering what now?, you’re not alone. The world is full of financial advice for retirement, but there’s far less about how to actually live a fulfilling life once the 9-to-5 ends.
Beyond Retirement is the podcast that explores what comes after the career chapter. Whether your retirement was planned or unexpected, joyful or jarring, you’ll find real stories, honest conversations, and practical inspiration here.
Join host Jacquie Doucette as she shares her own journey and speaks with people who’ve reimagined life after work—some fully retired, some shifting gears, and all discovering new meaning in this next stage. From finding purpose to building community, embracing play, and navigating change, we’ll explore how to create a life that truly fits.
Because retirement isn’t the end—it’s a new beginning.
Let’s figure out what comes next, together.

This week I review Sandi Shortt's chat about crossroads in life, mindset, and lifestyle changes, and designing a fulfilling and purposeful retirement.
One critical point that stood out to me was the idea of shifting from a mundane, gray existence to a vibrant, colorful life.
Sandi's work as a psychotherapist and coach reinforces the importance of identifying who we want to be, how we want to feel, and taking action towards those goals.
Her My Best Life exercise is an excellent tool for assessing our current situation and identifying where we want to be. By exploring the gap between those two points, we can make a roadmap towards our goals and aspirations.
Retirement is an opportunity not just to rest and relax, but to make a meaningful impact in our communities and leave a legacy that will endure.
