How to get the most out of The Anti-Retirement Plan

Perhaps you picked up a copy of The Anti-Retirement Plan at your favourite bookstore, or maybe your daughter gifted it to you during your retirement party. Regardless of how it came into your life, we’re excited to help you get the most out of the experience.

Here’s how to get started

First, open up the journal to page 3 and write down your name. It’s important to personalize your journal and make it feel like your own.

Next, read through the table of contents to get a sense of what comes next. There are eight sections inside and over fifty guided prompts that will help you reflect on your identity, career transition, relationships, needs, and purpose.

Here’s how to start journaling

Go at a supportive pace: Some people like to answer a prompt a day and sit with it. Others spend a week or two completing it fully. Do what works for you. There’s no rush.

Build a routine: Consider blocking consistent time in your calendar, daily or weekly, to answer the journal prompts in the order they’re presented. You may want to add this to a routine you already have, like sipping your morning coffee.

Look within: Answer each journal prompt with as much detail as possible. This is a space for you to connect with yourself as you define the next chapter of your life. There are lots of answers waiting inside you.

Journal with others: Find a friend, colleague, or family member in a similar life stage to journal alongside. Reflect, compare insights, and hold each other accountable. We offer free shipping when you order two or more copies.

Retirement is a distinct and powerful milestone and we’re excited to be a companion along your journey. We’d love to hear how this chapter of your life unfolds and you can let us know by sending us an email!
